Cute-but hard to wear.

Oh no. That might be taken as a challenge/dare!! Can't wait for those pics!

Me either. Played a Pbass a lot as I recall. Did when I saw TL live in the late 70s.

 

[dagrev]

YUP! seen him with all kindsa Fenders and even a Ric but never a Bird....i'm convinced TL would have largely benefited from the tone of a Bird...
preferably one like this....

I think GC has this labeled wrong....I think its a VP. I'd jump on it if I wanted to get divorced...

Yep, it's a VP! At the best VP price you'll ever see, about 40% under what it should be. With a fail proof warranty. The only issue I can see on it is the Truss plate screws are wrong (should be black and smaller). Probably a total non issue, but it then warrants a closer look at the truss once you have it in hand. I don't need another VP or I'd be all over it.

Wow! That's as good a deal as I've ever seen on a VP. I just might...... No better not. Well.....

Never seen an alien before and the first one I see is drowning in cherry brandy.

One form of preservation.

Average Edinburgh summer is 10°C and overcast, it's like living in a tupperware box in the fridge -- with the lid on.

Idk. I'm Mr. Freeze. So i'd probably dig it.

 

[JJR58]

Unlike Seattle. No Tupperware box in the summer here.

Or being locked up in the cupboard.

And I will add - this is why I hate camping.

Spoil sport.

If it were black or white I would have hit the BIN tab as soon as I saw it - already have a brown-burst bird...

No, that is a later model. VF, not VFR. I will dig up a pic.

Here we are:

This one - the VF was an earlier model. The 750F was '90-'93; '90-red/'91-red/'92-black/'93-pearl white - at least in the US. I have seen a dark blue one - euro only most likely.

Is that what you had? I'm not arguing abiout anyone else's bike. What I had was a 1983 VF750F -- the original Interceptor. Here is a video. Mine was just like this, but red and white. It was definitely a VF750F.

I had one of these, in silver. Totally beat up. And dumped it 3 times.
Lucky i'm still alive. All because i'm just plain stupid.
