You are very welcome John, I'm glad you enjoyed it and THANKS for the compliments! When I first played the bass, it just SCREAMED for TI Flats. I love those strings and the way they sound and make the bass feel, sweet LOW & SMOOTH.

What a quinkie-dink! I just put my 1st set of TI's on the '71 also. I need to spend more time with them, but 1st impressions are great!

That's a great looking bass, Tony! No need to keep her in hiding! :wink: :mrgreen:

The '73 is gone. But the good news was it paid for the 71! 8)

Tony, now I remember the '73 going for the '71. Oh, btw, my fingers are more limber in the first half of December. :wink:

Andy, you are ALWAYS welcome at my humble abode! Just say the word. LOTS of empty bedrooms to choose from! :mrgreen:
The room with the view of the lake and private bath is available presently! :lol: THE GRAHAM SUITE we call it. :wink:

Kevin, with a brother in the NEXT TOWN, I thought for SURE I'd have met you by now! :twisted:
I think you are DUE to visit your family! :wink:


ROAD TRIP! 8) 8) 8) 8) 8)

One brother in Stuart and one in Jenson Beach!

I'm over-due for a visit. The last time I was down was 2004 when I got my (John's) MG V63.
We are tentatively planning a visit next Spring. I'll be sure to look you up!
