Here's a pic of me and my trusty '73MG at our band's gig this weekend...

Thanks, Jaymi!

Hey, Jeff, in my outfit you get static from our singer if you don't smile at all times - leads to lots of cheesy grins. I'm pretty certain my grim expression here coincided with a very inebriated member of the audience chanting "he's a dwarf, he's a dwarf, he's a dwarf" at our admittedly very short drummer, and anticipating that a ruck might ensue. Thankfully the drummer is used to hecklers and used an effective put down that, owing to the rules of decency, I can't repeat here.

yep that's the one I rescued off of ebay and restored ... I put about $400 in parts into it ... it is a good workhorse bass ... except it has no low B ...

Yes, Jaymi, Jeff did a lot of work to that one, I got it from him a few years back, and he had put it back to original after the original owner wasn't so nice to it. Great player, and sounds killer!

Cooper...I think this is a better one!

Thanks, Tim, I like that one too, but I wanted to post one from this weekend!

I sure am glad that Rick is sturdy, it has been getting a lot of work of late, and still sounding awesome!

I tend to look serious when I play. I'm really just concentrating...I actually did have a good time.
