Jeff Beck barely talks in concert, but he sings on an album!?

I'm not touching you! I'm not touching you!
Daaaad! He's looking at me! Now he's making faces at me!
He's on my side!
Oh the joys of the family road trip...
So, now we know who is responsible for the great T-Bird inflation of 2020!
I too have a ProV. Mine is a bit noisy and it seems to be getting worse. I think I will de-activate it (replace the electronics with passive) and perhaps refinish it in BMM or PB. But, it was a bargain; I payed C$350.
Every time I try an Ibanez, I think that they are great instruments at fantastic prices. Mahogany bodies, very thin, 5 ply necks, and (most important) humbuckers. At some point I will have to get one.
No problem at all for C-130 Drone. Might be able to carry an extra head.
From what I remember of mine when they first came out, I won't disagree. And unlike the SVT, the T-40 gets heavier during the gig or practice.T-40 is still heavier
Neck p/u all the way up, bridge p/u off or up to about 1/2, and tone all the way on.
My 4 string bird is currently tuned DGCF... Because drop D is way too confusing for my simple mind. And during recovery from shoulder surgery, I could capo at the 2nd fret making it a short scale to make the reach easier.
Doesn't look like the cat found it humorous. Has that "I'm not messing around or telling you again look."
That is an inexpensive fix that does not require refinishing in a cool colour. So what is the point of that?
Perhaps I should try that first (ignoring the Kat's advice to remove the electronics and burn then in a purifying ritual).

The great part about the shielding: you can still do the other stuff too!
But then it is just a project. Not a big stupid project.The great part about the shielding: you can still do the other stuff too!

Hmmm....well in that case, do the other stuff, then the shielding?
Or just watch me keep spending money on my BSP
Looking this place up. Might have to call them...

Minor update on minimal progress to the GBP as I go off to bed. Working nights...
Hoping to get all of the current in-progress stuff done on my next set of "days" off:
1) Finish fitting nut & secure
B) Wiring
) Pickup rings & covers

My friend lives in Lexington KY and haunts pawn shops in the general area (or anywhere he visits in the state). He has bought many guitars and amps for far less than the price tag by having cash in hand and having a rough idea of how long some of the items have been hanging there. He has done really well with old Fender amps because its not the kind of thing shops want to ship.
Like MCF says, they have very little into it so they have a LOT of wiggle room.
I liked Jeff Healey but I always felt like the bass player could have been much more creative.
I like those Roadstar's a lot. A couple have turned up on Craigslist for really good prices and got snapped up before I could snag them. They are on my short list even tho I already have enough P or P-J loaded basses. Whats one more going to hurt??
Have you ever played a Casady?
