Seems like it chose you. It's just taking a while to get to you.Very kind of you, but I don't consider myself in until I actually have the bird in my posession

Hey, we all know Mike. He has lived in Florida at least that long.Wow, that’s a long time! I don’t know anybody that old.
Like George's, sweet! Gibson should make.... Never mind.My highly modified Goth:
Tecate's good, but I prefer Carta Blanca.
Carta Blanca, Sol, Corona, Modelo, Victoria.....even Michelob.....heck, whatever you got in the cooler...
About 35 thunderbirds in the current inventory, about ten of which I have either modded or built.Thank you that is a very kind offer and you do obviously seem to know your stuff on the birdReally appreciate it and will maybe take you up on the offer after making accointances with this bass
Probably opening Pandora's box here, but how many birds ya got and hiw many modded?
IIRC you’re also a Warwick Thumb B05 player, you might take interest in this one that I completed a few months ago and is ready to be sent out for painting…
I love my BO5 sound but really favor the Tbird looks and ergos lately, so I made an exact duplicate of my BO5 but in 4 string format with a Tbird body. The neck is wenge/wenge as is the pick guard, the body is mahogany (bubinga would have weighed a ton) all hardware (except the ultra light tuners) is Warwick brand and all electronics are MEC brand to the same spec as Warwick uses in the Thumb bass, still searching for a black adjust-a-nut to replace the white tusq nut that’s currently on it. Sounds fantastic! A bit less growl than my Thumb bass but I can get that if needed with the right string set.
Didn't mention Foster's for some reason.
One of these-when I can get them:
The one in the middle is from Ft. Liquordale, the other two are from Tampa and St. Pete.
they've bent importing Victoria into the US for awhile now.....this on the other hand....
Sorry I missed your call as you were passing by on the 5 to invite me to go with you. Next time.
The one in the middle sounds... not good. I like all those flavors, but not together in beer. I don't think.Stranger things have happened. But not since I gave up drugs.
Huh. I'm used to seeing two triodes for a reverb, a driver and a post-coils amp.
I love your back yard there.
He's waiting for Mike to ship him some peanut butter Foster's.
I'd love to try those. Here's my go to:
