Nope, like a pinhead, I sold it for some forgotten reason. It went to a jingle writer in Chicago, IIRC.

MID with gold guards is a fantastic combination! I'm having my 1981 620 LH refinished in Azureglo with gold guards and after seeing yours, I'm glad I made that decision!
BTW, I have a RIC poster/catalog from 1986 that has a 620 pictured with a white finish with the black trim option and I was wondering if anyone has ever had one of those and if so, do you have any pictures of it? I just thought it was strikingly beautiful.

And to think the new MID was really kind of an afterthought to the JG when we revamped it last year! :lol:

Really? Did the color change, or was it just not available for awhile?

I tend to gravitate to blue instruments - my dearly departed 4001 was Azureglo, and two of my three MusicMan basses are Blue Pearl (very similar to MID).

MID changed to what you see now. We got a sample and decided that it beat the former version of MID all to hell. You should see it on a 381!

When did it change last year? Mine was born in August - is it really the new MID?
