I've been trying to figure out how to get it from him for years now...
Very cool! Pics or it didn’t happen. Seriously. Even better a bit of video.So that band I've been wanting to play in for the last 20 years is happening, I'll be taking part via the internet, for now. I'l get tunes sent to me via Dropbox, load them into Waveform Free (I.e. Tracktion), and shed them... then the guy doing the engineering (also the drummer and vocalist) will come by my house some afternoon with his laptop, and I'll come out with my bass and plug into a usb interface and throw it down. Standing outside his car, on the street, in front of my house.
This should make for some fun liner notes.
Take some video. Make sure you get your neighbours' reactions. It will make for interesting footage to add to the video...So that band I've been wanting to play in for the last 20 years is happening, I'll be taking part via the internet, for now.

Nine hours with no posts? Craziness.
What’s a Thunderbird you wouldn’t accept as a gift if you couldn’t mod it and it was the only instrument you could play for a year?

Yeah, same(EpiBird 5er)for me. With my short-ish fingers, the string spacing was OK. The neck profile wasn't. Bc my thick body and the wide strap I used on it, I had no dive problems but I couldn't get a sound* I liked outta the damn thing. I hope the buyer in AZ likes it.The 5 string Epi NR ( I owned one once), string spacing was way too close and (for me at least) neck dive like a Stuka over Poland.
