Probably around '77-78, me, my 4001 and an Ampeg V-4

Too much hair! :roflmao:

About an hour away, in RI. Sup?

Someone needs to grab this. It’s in Mass.

For those of you looking for an Eppi VP, there might be a sweet deal for a bird in the New York bushes...

No affiliation, did not contact the seller, so no idea what condition it's in but it looks nice in the photos.
 
OK just the hair then?

Nope! While I still have a very full head of hair I much prefer it short now, it's all gray - growing it out to look like a badly aging hippie isn't a life goal. :laugh:

That’s awesome 1) because it’s cool to be captured in the moment, back when cameras weren’t in everyone’s hands all the time, and 2) because I was running nearly the same rig. 4001 into a V4B. But I was using an Ampeg SST 4x12 cab, about the same time.

In my ignorance, I acquired that SST cab, not knowing what it was. I ripped the electronics out of it and installed an aluminum plate with. 1/4” jack. That was my cab for a long time. I still have it. :roflmao:
 
Question for those who are early adopters and ordered the NR T-Bird. Does anyone have an idea of the neck profile? I am wondering if it modeled after the 2012 re-issue or the 60's version?
If anyone knows for sure, it would be @godofthunder59. His last tip was that the PUP’s were going to have a vintage wind. I for one can’t wait, regardless of the neck profile. I have no problem with my reissue.
