+1 8) As close as I'll ever get to the real thing. It was a privilege to see it in person. Thanks, Paul! :)

Or... I guess the next time I drive back to San Francisco. I fly mostly, but I could make an exception for you. Probably in the summer. I have a tenant moving out and I'll have to get the hose ready to rent again. Are you looking for a place in the city? Three blocks from the ocean.

Do let us know when you're driving down. Likely we could hook up with Paul too and have some laughs.

Your house must be not far from where I grew up. I'd love to take your offer but it's just not the right time for me to plan a move (sigh).

Yeah, the house is in the Parkside on 45th. Not too far from Lowell High School. I have another on 22nd Avenue in the Inner Sunset. My sister lives there so I don't think that will ever come up available for rent.

Here are three of the four incarnations of Paul's 4001S.

Looks great! A very unique collection. The AFG on the back of the MMT bass really looks great.

That is correct. But I do have it on order. I thought I would take there picture because it is the first spring day we have had this year. So I got them out into the sunshine and fresh air. :)

Thanks. Paul was dead on when he said the back should be AFG. I wasn't sure, but I'm glad I took his advise.
