yeah that topic keeps coming up over and over. around here folks call me the guy with the reverse Firebird bass
Back to the Greco, the price seems high taking into account the fact that you can get a 2013 NR for about the same unless I'm missing something..
Seems to me that folks in this club with much more non Gibson T-Bird experience than I mention Greco pickups with a whole lot of reverence..
Firebird bass? How about we start calling the guitars "Thunderbird guitars" (oh, that's right - Guild already did that!)
Who knows what these basses are "worth" (usually depends on whatever someone considers worth it monetarily for them) but as I imagine this specific style (a close to flipped gen1) is rarer than most, it may be considered more valuable. (another subjective term)

Think RAWR on the pickups, nothing subtle, especially when you play with a pick.
These are the best I can do, there are no pubs under the abbey any more these days, too full of upmarket holiday homes
Up the hill towards the shop
Bottom of the hill around the corner
From the shop down the hill
The abbey and the gravestones that inspired the story of Dracula
Another cool picture from the last time I was there, a woman walking her dog and two cats on the beach
never ceases to amaze how gorgeous Britain is..
It has it's charms I suppose. Did you ever go to Southport beach to see the art installation "Another Place"? A magical sight
No, never heard of it. When was that built, looks aged
Lol!! those statues would be illegal over here....
Years ago my buddy Caetano who owns a magnificent Italian restaurant called Bella Roma in Capitola CA was forced by the city to remove a Michelangelo copy statue of David.....(sigh)....
