Ronn,
Yeah, After I looked at it for a minute, I realized that it had to be, because the headstock is wrong for a "C" series... Nice finish job on it, too!!!

Well played, Ronn!

Gotta love that LSD'd 4001, too - my favourite paintjob here!

Henny, in my case it's a Shiner Bock induced paintjob!

Ronn, That is awesome. Thanks for the link to the site. I've never been a big tribute band guy, but you guys sound awesome! As I have mentioned before, I love the paintjob. I bet you could make a few bucks offering your services. I'd be first in line.

Once again Nice Work and Congrats!

Any 12 stringers gonna be there? I'll bring my "Limited Edition" 360/12.

Busy day today, got a gig at noon and another at 6.
Brian, the kinda tricky thing about the paintjob was that the bass was MG, so I had to recreate a '60s FG finish first, then do the MMT thing on top of that.
Steve, come on down!
Gotta tell you guys about a gig last week. We were playing an outdoor venue on a lake, starting our 3rd set when the manager of the place told us there was a storm a'comin'. We all pitched in to help pack, got the instruments in the cases, and the PA amp racks sealed when it hit. High winds, marble-size hail, and heavy rain. The cover over the seating area disappeared, one of the crew was blown off the stage, and the backline and PA cabs were soaked, full of rain.
Every gig since then has had PA provided, and we brought amps from home to use, but tonight we try our stuff. Hope it works.

So Ronn, I guess that means I would have to ship you a fireglo bass for you to paint and that would make it easier for you... right?
