Oh man! Every time I see your Ripper it makes me want to kick myself, hard. I wish I'd never sold mine. It's a classic. Is that the same strap too?

Thank you for your indulgence,

What age constitutes an old Fart??

You'll know by the smell.

1977-ish 18y/o. Bass is a Univox Badazz w/short scale pencil neck. Very easy and fast to play.

Last year. 56y/o I usually play my custom jazz bass but I had just put new strings on the this one and wanted to try it out. This one also was modded with a full EMG install. Lakland 55-01 in the background.

I don't think BassCliff should post his pics in here. While he very much the "old" and the "fart", I've never seen a pic where he's "grumpy".
