Agreed, and that scratch build looks stellar. Still can't get over the realism of it.
I have to say, i find this one quite nice, for a NR.

got this out of the shop a couple days ago and took it to a practice last night. Such a nice sounding bass
It has a TB ‘66 and I’m quite fond of it @cornfarmer. Not sure what’s up with yours...sorry you’re having problems. Or maybe you just prefer the hotter 66S.

Yep, we had Yes, ELP, Mountain, Zeppelin, Vivaldi and Buxtehudeh (sp on that last one??)...
Couldn't stop the onslaught of EDM though, no matter what we did...
I'm still considering one of those for next summer.
Got it out of a cycling shop??
And a real looker at that!
Nice bird! Either you keep that in a bike shop, or you have a very interesting taste in clothing in your closet.

The bike shop is a front. For some secret underground music works.

It's always fun to bring them forward in time, the prototype was built in June of'69, my model is how it looked in '76.Hmm. Kinda looks old and weathered
I bet there’s a lot of bells that get rung from the bass!One of the bands I play with rehearse at a bike shop

Bells, Vince? This is a very high end road bike shop. Bikes that cost more than a decent used car. Not a lot of bells there

And I thought we finished talking about used cars, and now you bring it back up.
V - very cool!
I'm not very up on train cars, how about some education. So in real life would this type of car be used to haul large tractor tread type vehicles? Would the two ends somehow be positioned as ramps to allow the heavy equipment to drive onto the flatbed? May seem like stupid questions, just an enquiring mind.
