There's a Greco in here somewhere!
In other news, it's looking really good on the financial front, a '60s II is on the horizon.

The table & light fixture are both very nice, but the bass in the glass case is the real focal point of the room.
Looks to be better organized than Gibson/Epi.
That would take very little effort.... I think a room of monkeys most of organized and planned out Gibson serial numbers. I take that back, that's a little harsh on monkeys.
Thanks V! Yeah...Live a lot, Roger!
No limbo there.That's a low bar to cross.

I'm guessing a G-ric-o would be a pretty nice bass that wouldn't sound like a Ric.

Dog math: N+1. It's the basis for all higher math and higher thought.I seem to be the reverse - I've got two amps (one's just a very small practice amp), but basses....let's just say, several? Working to trim that back a bit

I have one of those, left over from my construction days. It works very well on lots of things. Mine might be a different brand, Makita perhaps, but same thing and same effect.
Correct, I was just getting ready to forward that link to you. I have a G77728X, so it's a July of 1977 build. Roughly the same time I graduated from high school in San Jose. Care free and wild summer that year. Did a number of stupid things that summer - I have no clue how I survived. If I'd had the Greco back then I probably would have done something stupid with it as well.
interesting.....in 77 I was in middle school in Ft. Liquordale and had just rented a Hondo II P copy from Do Re Mi Music and got a copy of this...Correct, I was just getting ready to forward that link to you.

I graduated from high school in 1978. That was a rough summer. I worked all summer as the night shift janitor in a trucking company maintenance barn. Nothing like industrial chemicals all night, almost 12 hours per night. They knew I was headed for college and was 18 and therefore indestructible. And they knew I needed to make as much money as I could and was only there for a summer. Two and a half months was longer than they had kept anybody in that position for several years. They put me to work on all kinds of really unpleasant cleaning tasks and gave me lots of overtime. So, I made money but was wiped out most of the time. The good thing was that there was a White Castle on the way home, right next to a Timkin Roller Bearing plant. I got a bag full of sliders pretty much every day. And of course, I had a girlfriend who lived about an hour and a half drive the other direction and went to see her all weekend. I didn't get a lot of sleep that summer. Weekends were OK. The rest of the summer wasn't a lot of fun until the day I quit. I brought a case of beer to work and the mechanics and I hung out behind the barn and drank it at the end of the shift.Correct, I was just getting ready to forward that link to you.
