I use that one also. Irfanview is also a very good freebie which will do some photo editing as as well.
JETGLO should officially be renamed JETGLO ROCKS! :-)

I have NO idea what to do with those skinny stringed things... I'm just a bass player...

Sorry to take so long to reply. Just returned to Texas after many years in L.A. Getting settled and seeing numerous old pals. (I use the term "old" with love!)

Cheers,

Austin ehh? You should come to a show sometime.

After more than 10 years of not playing out with other musicians, I went to a friend's band practice this weekend. I played bass and guitar. The guitar shots are posted in the General Section. I had a good time! This is the 1967 body project bass that was re-finished/restored by Paul W. and has misc. new and 70's parts on it.

Gorgeous bass, Bob! That's the first time I've ever seen a '67 Deluxe in any color other than FG or MG. Was the bass originally Azureglo?

No, it was Fireglo. Since it was completely stripped of any and all parts, I decided just to make it a player and not worry about a complete OEM restoration. I always liked Azureglo so...

Good choice. The AZ looks great.

Refresh my memory - what is "OEM?"

I finally got my music room more or less set-up - here's my MID FL along with my rig, including the Alesis 3630 cjj was asking about in another thread. Jamming along (quietly) to In Memory of Elizabeth Reed, which was on in the adjacent room.
