Another to make me say "Oh! SNAP!!"
This x 1000.
Also, thanks for the help with GB. In that case, I’ll just stick with Sound Studio, which I’ve been using for ages, to string them all together and add blank space in between. I’ve never been able to warm up to GB.
Here's a rare vintage Thunderbird II that I'm hoping to see in person when I travel to Germany. From 1986, one of a very small custom run by Gibson that year.

That's every day.What? NO Tort Tuesdays, where we pointlessly bang on about tort for the day?
There's a dude in my hood selling a black Grabber body sans hardware for $400. He offered it to me for $250, but nothing is "to be" for a good stretch of road I'm afraid. But I do love that shape. Thinking about investing some stowed hardwood into a cop of it to put this Goth neck on... maybe after spring I'll get into something crazy.
Really thumpy with flats, pup slid to the neck, and foam under the bridge cover. Sorry, that's probably not helping.Another to make me say "Oh! SNAP!!"
That one disappeared shortly after the picture was taken, belonged to the neighbor...damn dogs.Another cat??? How many do you have running around?![]()

Ok a little bit of last nights gig - part of Philly Loves Bowie week- performed Bowie’s 1974 David Live album. Here’s a little clip from the end of Moonage Daydream with the fantastic Ross Belanoit on guitarView attachment 2867742 Ok, vintage Sunday, my 60’s Avalon hunk o junk, more wall art than playable right now but I might fix it up someday, it is a pretty funky beast.
Oh and the jacket was from last nights show... i’ll Share a couple pics later
Getting a pickup for it though would be the hard and expensive part.What year Grabber? Sounds like a great deal on a fun project! You gotta have a rich uncle or sumpin!
...If you insist! Wait, I don’t really have a bass with tort at the moment...

@Dadagoboi You and me are brothers in the Grabber / T-Bird subculture....
Might I suggest any "bashing" take place in a thread out in GP. If Pandora's box gets open in here... I'm afraid we'd never get it closed. I like this place the way it isWhat? NO Tort Tuesdays, where we pointlessly bang on about tort for the day?
Just giving a little heads up on it.I reckon, but patience would pay off eventually. Just thinking. Those things are shooting up in price
Indeed. But feel free to go on.Really thumpy with flats, pup slid to the neck, and foam under the bridge cover. Sorry, that's probably not helping.
Apropos of nothing, I'm finally selling this piece of crap, so here's a pic.

Picture makes it look a little wonky...
