An Old Lost Friend...

Post by ben_brown »

I just received an email from Dale Fortune. I don't have to tell you that I've been anxiously waiting several months for this......

"Steve..Your Bass will be done very soon and ready to ship back..."

This is what I sent him...

Steve, that's gonna look superb. I'm slightly biased, of course. Now you'll just have to convince Tammy to help you recreate the Star Stowe portrait.

Holy Cow... that is just fantastic! I know that Ilan always wanted a 72 Azureglo, well this might be the way to get very close. Great work Dale 8)

You're right, Bob, that is my dream bass... One day I'll get a newish Ric and have it modded like that. Looks awesome.
