Utah is having a major migration from Texas, California, and even the Northwest. I live in a more or less mid to high end subdivision (Glen Eagle golf course surrounds us), and walking the dog semi-daily, I see where all the license plates are from. Also a smattering of Colorado and Arizona. State numbers bear this out. I don't get it! Lotsa tech jobs though....
Shoot. I'm all out of kidneys.
Yeah, I need to yank my head out and get that done. I had it pretty close then got distracted by some other recording projects on drums.And I’m still waiting for that drum track! Let go of your perfectionism
when moving back to the Bay Area from Seattle, locals up there often told me to tell people how it much it sucked up there..As long as they don't come to Washington!
..
Yeah, you've been needing a red bass.And now, for the main event!
I am not good enough with the word-things, so here's some pics instead

Sounds great, very...bass-y? Less treble-y? Very similar in sound to my CP, I guess, and of course my other MiK T-bird, the one with flats. May be the "darkest"? sounding bass I have....which is awesome
Needs a bit of setup adjustments, and I just got in the newest set of DR neon reds, so those'll probably go on too.
I did notice the fretboard issue the seller mentioned (the reason why it's stamped "2nd", probably) - frets #15 & #16 are a bit low on the G string. Not much of an issue for me, but something I'll probably correct at some point (I do have some perfectly good brand-new fret wire just laying around....)
Oh, and of course,.....that color!
Yeah, you've been needing a red bass.
Along that line, saw a shirt St. Pat's day: Irish-ish.Yes!
Really, all of them should be red or red-adjacent or red-ish or.....
Yep. It completely sucks up here. That's my story, and I'm sticking to it.when moving back to the Bay Area from Seattle, locals up there often told me to tell people how it much it sucked up there..
That one is beautiful. And I think that Epiphone case is actually a better case than Gibson cases. It just doesn't have the odd burial shroud that Gibson cases have. And it isn't pink inside like a Gibson case.And now, for the main event!

Ya mean like this(my 95 Les Paul 5er)?:The pink insides is one I would like to have (surely that doesn't come as a surprise...). Been thinking of having a Dean case I have (with bad insides) re-done for the Blackbird, maybe that's the color it should be
I have a smidgeon of Irish/Scottish. And 100% Appalachian-American, I can say that yes, you do.
Funny that you would say that..I wrote the number in the in the pickup pocket before I started doing the paint work just in case the finish work made it eligible
That color is a killer!! Great score!And now, for the main event!
