Thunderbird Club

It'll be here (along with the aforementioned Q80) next week.

Love it!!!
 
After playing that clip, there is now a pod of whales at my front door demanding to know why I was just broadcasting a demand for the destruction of the Monterey Bay kelp beds. I assured them that I had done no such thing but at their insistence, I replayed the clip. They were horrified. I was embarrassed. And you may have some explaining to do if those aquatic mammals ever figure out how to pay you a visit in Tennessee ... or manage to register for a talkbass account despite their lack of either the technology or any way to type on a tiny keyboard with those giant fins.

...but then again.... they did figure out how to get to my house from the water, which is 1\2 mile as the unladen African swallow flies...
They’re just PO’d that they didn’t get beamed up to a stolen Klingon Bird of Prey.
 
Things happen when I'm left on my own, (idle brain, Satan's Workshop kind of thing) The Q80 and a Les Paul Oversize Gold Top are on their way to Casa Veronica.

Our Queen goes for the gold!

Can't wait to see your photos of them and hear your review. Never held an Over Size Gold Top but have seen a couple on YouTube vids and they sound quite nice. Now all you need to round out the picture are these two gems...

And one of these to transport them in...

I almost went for the Q but decided to pass, I'm still holding out for a NR. And if it needs a refin I'm matching that GTO.
 
View attachment 3561783 Anyone want an SWR G3 grill? It’s pretty rusty.
Probably not even worth the ship but I thought I’d see if there was any interest.
That would make an excellent 2 man griddle
Steak, sausages, pork chop, burgers and Frankfurters. Also space for a frying pan for the onions and peppers.
 
In 3000 years, when the archaeologists dig up this civilization, they will probably get some odd ideas about what we were really like.
I think that the priests of the temples of syrinx will tell anyone trying a guitar or bass "We have no need of ancient ways, our world is doing fine" and will be labelled "Another toy, to help destroy, the elder race of man".

I think the Q80 is a re fin, pretty good price on it. The band has a major show on the 26th (unofficial Halloween) at 7 Cedars, who know one these two may make an appearance.

Firemist Gold Metallic - like most all classic colours, there is hue variance due to who is spraying it. The way it looks in the pic of that GTO is due to its digital translation/reproduction from the original photo. Just type in any classic colour and see how many different versions they include.
