Nice pair Steve. I've wondered what the two would look like next to each other.

Boyer's precious bodily fluids all exited his body at one time looking at the Sea Green V63. His remains will be arriving at the Columbus confluence in Dr. Staberow's herse for visitation.

What a mess that must have been for Mrs. Boyer to clean up! Image

Hey Brian, I'm a huge Lemmy fan and also completely agree that I love the blue and seagreen basses. Although I haven't got either at the moment (one day!), I'd be happy to play them regardless of how soft I look (maybe I should rename my band Marshmallowhead....). Heck, they may even match my underwear.....(ok I'm joking, honest!!!).

I don't want it to sound like I mean "soft" in a bad way and I'm not very image oriented either. To me the Blue Boy and Sea Green basses just have more of a surfer '60's music vibe to them.
I guess it would be nice to soil one with some good distorted metal though.....Sea Green here I come !

Brian - my Sea Green and Blue Boy have already been used to make some magnificently filthy music. Well, not in public anyways.
