I'm most definitely looking forward to hearing that babe SING, Sean!
A Rickenbacker bass is much like the Jaguar E car - perennially ultra-fashionable.

Hey John,

That was post #4001 for you! VERY COOL!

Yes, MG is my tie for favorite along with Autumn Glo/Walnut.

I recently picked up a '74 MG 4001 which a fellow forum member is guarding for me at present. Also, a surprise RIC MG (en route) and ONE OTHER special 4001 just acquired (also en route). Image

When Sr. Management finds out, I'm in BIG TROUBLE!
Oh GOSH, am I in trouble! Image

HELP! Is there ANY cure for this madness!?!?!?!

Well, if Sr. Management takes full control of finances, then, maybe...

Very true Sheena, very true.

I will have to do SOMETHING, I'm just not sure exactly WHAT just yet. I'm way over the line now.

When that bill comes in.....oh man, I don't want to be home, that is for sure!

you can always pull the "Oops I did it again..."
May you always work like you don't need money;
May you always love like you've never been hurt;
and may you always dance like there's nobody watching.

Tony, in the interest of saving your marriage, I will take one of those 4001s off your hands, in honor of my 4001st post. Just let me know.

Well, Tony, i think John's offer sounds good. And if you don't want to be home, i am sure somebody from this forum will give you a shelter. In exchange for your new gear. Image

Thanks John,

You are a good man!

IF these guitars have the THIN neck profile I'm hoping for, some of the chubby neck RIC's that I have (which I'm not even playing) will be going.

Good idea Sheena! Hey Jdog, you moved in yet? Image

Tammy,

I could probably get away with that if it was close to Christmas.....WAIT A MINUTE.....my birthday isn't too far off.....I wonder..... Image

Not on a Friday, Mr. Scott?

(why does that sound like something JTK would say?)

My favorite ex-girlfriend's birthday is Sept. 11, poor girl!
Plus five minus five!

Hey Jeff,

My mother's birthday is Sept 13th as well, and she WAS born on a Friday!

LoL, she ended up with me! Image
