Played the last gig (1.5 weeks ago) with the "mink" bass. The bridge (see separate thread) was taken off of another bass (guess which one). I keep TI jazz flats (red silks) on the mink and the white V63, Pyramid flats (lavender silks) on the Sea Green. The Cheyenne and Shadow have D'adario Slow Wounds (multicolored silks). I'm not sure if the Fireglo V63 has half-rounds. I can't remember what strings I put on the Laredo; they're rounds with red silks, but it has a low B string that is a not from a set. The C64S I bought from Steve Berndt has flats with blue silks. The others have stock RIC strings, as far as I know.

Very nice pics, Paul. When was the last time you did a full family portrait?

I had 12 in February when I shot this one. Problem is you can't see much of them in these racks. I thought about spreading them out on the back deck as I did last year (when I had 10), but then I started thinking about how much area it would take, renting the Met Life blimp to get the camera back far enough, etc.
