The cheese looks good... but that salami looks oooold!

Aged... errr.... 'relic' salami is the best!!

What’s the strap pin on the back of the headstock for?

Frankly... white is one of the few colors that tort works on IMHO. It's just that this is so much FUN!!!

It's an early bass detuning device.

It's for a strap
Standard on 7ender basses from 1960 to 1969.

Did a quick clip of the Cataldo NR41 if anyone is interested. A/B’d it with my ‘02 Gibson to hear the difference of the stock Gibson pickups vs the Thunderbucker Ranch ‘63

Thanks Duke, that’s really good of you. For the record... I like them both.

No tort no cheese.
I like my old black P Basses- a la The Cure.

My trusty old 73- I have the original white guard put away.

Me too! On the Cataldo with that pickup, I’m glad it’s just a single. It’s not like I wish there was a way to add clarity I happen to think a single pickup looks really cool too, shallow confessions and all...

Is the Cataldo "pretty" enough for the nice lady who puts up with you every day?

She thinks it’s ‘pretty.’

Jamie has been a shockingly good sport about my bass shopping spree lately

If you gotta have a J, that's a pretty good one to have. Shame about the salami, though.

It's just not workin for me. Can't help the salami, goes with cheese.

 

[JJR58]

Not sure about fortitude. I had some significant motivation. I knew enough to know I was going to need a big skin graft and what a mess it would be if that failed.
It also gave me something positive to focus on at a time when things were looking quite negative.

Hear ya loud and clear.
