I think that car looks great... but it shares one flaw with every other American made car that came outa the '80's. The "nose" is just horrible. IMO... the 80's brought us consistently boring, generic, unflattering plastic front ends.

I'm sure that's why Geddy didn't use a double bass on "Red Barchetta". It just didn't fit
I think you did too!I think I just soiled myself...
Probably none of our business.
Edit: but I missed Larrys post before I posted.
I swear man... between TBird, dadagoboi, Nocturnal, GBass, and you... it's amazing to me that there are any good basses left for the rest of us!

There are still some out there.......
So is every other bass that puts a smile on my face
Here's the one I sold, @theFixer. A beauty for sure but we just didn't connect.

I have no affiliation. It's not a Gibson or Epi but something to consider
Cool 1977 Guild JetStar JSB-II Stereo/Mono 4-string Bass Black with OHSC

I don't expect anything to do what a T-bird does, except another T-bird
I love SGs... I just just need more versatility than a mud bucker can provide. I also love the "attitude" of T-bird pups, so this could/should be a great bass! I'll look around & see what people have to say, try to find neck specs, etc.
I'm guessing the strap cost about as much as the bass

Nope, a very reasonable price in fact. I have 4 of them... 5 if you count the one I bought my oldest son.
Groovy strap, I like it.
Guild makes a helluva good acoustic, but I find their electrics to be aesthetically "yucky". I just don't like 'em.
I DO however, appreciate you thinking about me & taking the time to post it
Funnily enough... I had a walnut SG years ago, and I had the same experience. There was just no chemistry between us. While on break at a party I was playin', some sloppy drunk got too close. He knocked it out of the stand & busted a tuning machine. It's still the only instrument I've ever had fall out of a stand. I took that as my final omen, & got rid of it shortly after.

That thing is about as sexy as it gets!
Is it called a "Firebird Custom"?
Did they do a bass version?
