BTW, here is an old picture of my basses (13 at that time) and it is out of date by a few basses ... and I'm not even a real bass player! :shock: :roll:

Ah ha! Gary you are the culprit. Your photo has been my screen saver for a few months and I think it has been doing a subliminal job on me.... Thanks! :D

Addicted...what else do I want?....For starters; another 4004Cii with pickups closer to the bridge, a new 4003 and a 330, preferably in Jetglo, but Fireglo or Ruby might be just as well. I need to hit the lotto, but I never play it. :lol:
JETGLO should officially be renamed JETGLO ROCKS! :-)

CJ, I love the black hardware & checker board binding on that MG!! If I had a MG, it would have to have black hardware.

Including the mandolin (and 13 basses), I'm holding tight at 14! :D

Although there is a cii Blueburst in Canada whispering in my ear . . . :shock:
