Sure, Andy. But I couldn't resist teasing everybody a little.
A Rickenbacker bass is much like the Jaguar E car - perennially ultra-fashionable.

Did someone say Paste? Do you sometimes find yourself the butt of jokes and comedic humour at the hands of those around you? Image Well this is for you.....

Good old Boudreaux's is particularly well suited for use Down Under, especially if you've got the Trots, mates. It comes with the T-shirt too! Image Happy Saturday (hiccup) Night mates, just for you ....

OK, it's not a 4005. So I suppose everyone who guessed wrong gets a free lifetime supply of butt paste! Ha Ha.
I recently went back to playing a Rickenbacker bass. Its like meeting an old friend again

This would have to be one of the more bizarre threads I've participated in! Image

Pasties, paste, pasty, butt paste...how did we end up here?

Elys, that's a frequently made connection with my surname. I'm often the butt of the joke as a result Image I want one of those bobbleheads! Never seen nuffin' like that in Oz. Hell, we've only just got cheese wizz in a can!

HEY!

You want a weird thread??? How about....

We can start a thread "What SONG BEST describes you?"!

I'll start off with *MEATY BEATY BIG & BOUNCY! LOL!
Hmmm, wait a minute, was that an ACTUAL song??

Image

If it ISN'T a song, I'll go with "FAT MAN IN THE BATH TUB". Image

I just got back from my job…I played it all night. There is something very special about this one, the action, the light weight. The old pods, caps and wood blasted thru an all tube amp was almost like heaven.

I was reading all of your post thru my Blackberry during my breaks and laughing my a$$ off.

Image Hey, Sérgio bought an Azureglo 4080 in 1982, didn't her? But that's a 72 AG 4001 you've got there!
