Terrible case of FL blues....

Post by ajish4 »

With Spring break in the air here in Florida,
a common practice (so I'm told) is when someone yells out "show my your...." they do!

So, in that spirit, if I may be so brass as to say....SHOW ME YOUR FL's please!

I'm pining the arrival of my FL AFG.....

Thanks Bret, that is a sweet bass!

Jeff, I LOVE that bass! Fretless Ric with toasters, YUMMY!

There's something about those smooth necks that are SO seductive. Image

Oh man, I have fretless envy!

Jeff, you know how I feel about YOUR fretels"S", but WINTS, how does one go about getting in your Will? Image LOL!

Everyone, beautiful basses all!

ImageWints, all I can is Wow. From what I've seen of your collection, WOW.

Lets see, my AFG FL was ordered on 1/3/06. What do you think about another year or so? Image

Jdog, don't forget me! Your '92 is on my hit parade as well. LOVE that neck & that NATURAL AFG color!

Wints, a local shop had one just like yours, only in Jetglo. They wanted $3k. It was there for a while and only sold recently.
