You are probably the only bass player on the planet with groupies! It must be the legs.

talk about polar opposites.......

I have always called that kind of mahogany pattern bee's wing. Honduras like that can have a stunning iridescent quality that puts maple to shame in the right light. I made some chairs out of it 30 years ago or so.

Someone over in the Corner is building a bass with a body like that - stunning light effect. I'll see if can find it.

I went back and looked closer at that shot - I haven't a clue as to what the actual Whiskey Tango Foxtrot I'm doing!

Those were some fun shows, it was nice to sleep in my own bed after a night of playing.

Although waking up in someone else's can also be fun and exciting. Or scary.

Fried chicken, yeah, the natural string lubricant....... LOL.

Apparently today is national bird day....

 

[Bulltrout]

Can anyone recommend a recording of a single pickup TBird with the pickup in the P position? Thinking of a custom build for my second bird.

Usually happens to Drummers, speaking of which, time to walk mine
