Shortly after I posted that pic yesterday I really $%#^&* up my back installing a light fixture while doing some display work in the showroom, rest of the day was beyond excruciating, was difficult to just get the bass home. I sat with it for about 30 minutes and really enjoyed playing it and it's tone very much, it's a very nice bass (no price qualifier needed).

Wow, sorry to hear about your back. There's almost no escape from back pain without a really good pain reliever or maybe a few Scotches or maybe both. Hope you're feeling better already but if not, hope you get it under control quick.

Glad your VP doesn't disappoint!

Hey, that was a great deception - get yourself home early and play that new `bird!

But seriously, take care of yourself and hope you feel better quickly.

I knew something was up. Are you getting time off work? You should.

Shortly after the first auction for that white Gibson IV ended... I was talking with a friend of mine (the one who gave me the Les Paul), about watching that end with no bidders. He says, "So you still have that guitar? I thought you were gonna trade it for a bass". I said, "yeah... but it hasn't happened yet". He sez, "GOOD! yer keepin' it!". For the sake of brevity... I'll skip to the part where this Music Man showed up at my place!!!

"Merry Christmas" he said:wideyed: ......:jawdrop:...

<<< MIND buhLOWN >>>

Is he accepting new clients/patients?!
My best friend gave me a small scar on my face, hardly noticeable but not the point. Although he did give me that Goth Bird, but almost didn't give me the neck!!
