If anyone wants to sell me their white classic pro, I’ll take that one too!

Sorry. Mine is cold, dead fingers material.

 

[Engle]

no, it's black and you can look through it (long way) the way you look through a straw..

Weird Beird!

And this is it - any bass can become 'that' bass. Regardless of vintage, brand, "worth", contemporary mass market appeal... a bass one bonds with is special. Why? Because it is a key to creative expression. Full stop. Rock the bass that is that for you.

Nice bird! I like the star light - we used something similar in the (Bond girl) band I was in - very "show-biz"

A late entry for TT. Couple years ago in the studio.

Damn right. My Carvin is no Thunderbird, but every time I pick it up and play it, I get a huge smile on my face. Wonderful bass. First one I bonded with.

I remember when having your shirt collar up was a thing - but what was that bass player wearing!

I couldn't tell. It's like he was camouflaged or something.
And how did he get those high notes so far down the neck.

 

[JIO]

I have 3 other basses(I know-piker), but it's the 'Bird that's always my first choice. The one that feels right, whatever genre of music I'm playing. It has been since I first transitioned to it in '73. And I feel I can make it fit in any situation.
