I'm gonna keep off topic for one more post. I used to let my son (then 3 yrs old) watch a video of The Three Stooges every night before bed. One night he was sick with a fever, threw up a number of times. We let him in bed with us so we wouldn't have to get up with him again. The lights were cut off and all was well. About 30 seconds later we heard "Hey! Who turned off da lights?!", in a perfect Stooge voice. It was my son, in a perfect Moe Howard voice. I fell out bed laughing.

A few nights later, my wife served us soup for supper. She asked how we liked it. My son quipped..... "tastes like a dead horse"! Again I fell to the floor, laughing.

Keeping on the Stooges topic, all my life growing up there was a Stooges marathon on TV (at least in New England) from 10pm New Years Eve through, I think, 3am New Years Day....that was a yearly tradition which ended about 10 yrs ago. I miss that. Any other New England forumites (or anyone else) remember that????

Gareth ... that was the original finish on the neck of the '68 ... Cooper had an early 80's 4003s that was similar ... and I have a '86 2030-5 that has similar wood grain ...

Think it was called the "Stooge-a-thon"...

Curley Joe was NOT a real stooge!

Oh, so he was a faker then! Are they selling him on ebay as the real thing?

Sorry about the thread drift, but it's amazing what you may learn in this forum!!!!!

This is the binding on my 4001, giving more of a three quarters (angled) shot.
