Congrats Chris, so I guess you won't miss this one anymore!

Jeff- I still miss that one, but....I'm gettin' my MG back....

PLUS , it's an '88.....so it's got that aged look that I want....so I don't have to "baby" it....

Doesn't matter to me if the horsey isn't magnetized....

Sergio? What can you do for me , fella?

If I was ever gonna get an MG, I would want one that looked like that!

Charly, are you looking for a project? I saw one on Ebay today, basically a carcass....don't have the link handy, though...check it out! It did have a serial number, too.

Well, I got it yesterday and it is exactly as described. I put a trc on it and "temporarily" put in that Fralin magnetized treble p/u assy I purchased a few months ago(until I can get Sergio to do my shoe). This thing is a PERFECT project!! It's a bit beat up but now I don't have to worry about banging it up during gigs.....now I can dive off the stage into the throngs of adoring fans and not have to worry about "dinging" it on someone's piercings...

It's got some really cool "wear" marks that make it look like Macca's bass just a bit...nice vibe going here....

I've got some cool pics, but can't get 'em reduced enough to post 'em here...
