Oh yeah, right.

There are some thick body (like 2 1/2") guitars in some pics... 365 Capri? Please excuse my ignorance in non-bass models and educate me.

Ilan: These are the short scale C series guitars, Model 325C58.

Well, you are hanging with the bottom dweller's here Eric...

Those babies are definitely the 1999s for Japan.
Can I order some spares for my white bass?
Better still,remember Thunderbolt and Lightfoot?
Blast the wall down and grab em!!!

Incidentally,
Do those 1999 necks look fairly chunky or is it just the angle of the photo?

He must mean the - what I'd also describe as - mint coloured one on the rack in the background! What type is it?

Is a minty..new "F" type?

It must not be as glaringly obvious to us lay folk.

Well, if it's not the almost Blue Boy body, maybe it's this 381 body with a bass neck next to it...if the bass neck goes with the 381 body, then Joey (along with a few other folks) is going to keel over and faint about now...

this is like Miss Marple on steroids.

381 body bass neck next to it.jpg

Is that the sound of me fainting? Yes it is.

I think the bass neck next to the the 381 body was done on purpose as a practical joke on us.

Is it me, but did anyone else notice in the shot before the glue wheel, that it appears a lower bass bout being DRILLED for the pickup wire route?
