I'm fairly sure that if you post some pics, some of the 'Rick-o-Philes' here would offer an evaluation.

Makes me miss my old Jan '75 in white. Which of course didn't stay white!

The only white one I want is this one, in particular.

Some of my favorite songs have been recorded with that bass, and by my favorite bassist.

I don't normally care for white (especially when it turns yellow), but that one is SHARP!jps wrote:The only white one I want is this one, in particular.

Here is the bass before Jon modded it, at 02:19. I got to see it at very close range and got to meet Jon and Annie in '79.cjj wrote:I don't normally care for white (especially when it turns yellow), but that one is SHARP!jps wrote:The only white one I want is this one, in particular.
