Bringing it to MARF?

Is it an AVRI? Where are the photos??

Well, I saw it for sale on another forum today and fell in love. I have been wanting a Shell or Coral Jazzmaster forever (very nearly had a GORGEOUS refin '64 Coral Jaguar recently). The price was a little more then I wanted to spend and the seller was "firm" - until I showed some interest! He came down on his asking price considerably and I "popped on it" (for you American Pickers fans).

It is a "Thin Skin" with a 9.5" radius, medium jumbo frets, and a matching headstock. I'll get to see it in the flesh sometime next week, but for now...

Ah, I did bring a cool Jazzmaster to MARF II! I think I'm gonna have a few non-Ricks there with me, since the only Rick stuff I have is an old lap steel and the v68 and I'm not even sure which one has higher action.

That's totally sweet with the matching headstock.

How did the Mastery work out for you?

I plan on bring two (hopefully) non Rick basses.

Cool. I'll try and keep it to three non-Ricks, and keep them well-hidden as well.
