This photo was taken a few years ago, during my "BurgundyGlo" period. Most of these instruments have been passed along to new owners.

They range in date from 1968 to 2003. The 360 in front is Michael's, also depicted above in his post.
Hi Ron! Do you still have that 4001?

This photo of my 74 Tuna boat was taken at MARF IV back in 2011 by Paul Boyer.
I still have it but it doesn't get much playing time these days.

Thanks for bumping - this is a great thread. :)

I got to play my old BG 4005WB when I visited Graham recently. Such a trip to play it after having sold it over ten years ago. It felt exactly like I remembered!

Alright, I'll play along. January 1972 - 330/12

Interesting if for no other reason than it's a 21-feet model that still had toasters (assuming custom order with VP).

Collin’s 330/12 is AWESOME. Perfect neck angle and low action!

This one's on ebay now, a '72 330 (LB) to which an Ac'cent vibrato has been added. Unusual neck binding. Tuners were once changed, now repro Klusons. 24 frets. (no affiliation)
