Either that, or hermaphroditic...
I have NO idea what to do with those skinny stringed things... I'm just a bass player...

Actually Mr Hall sir, Im talking about the bass, and not Joey Vasco to the left of the picture, and the gentleman to the right...in Which case all instruments to me are female, acutally that might not even be the right bass, I was looking at the midblu 4004L from the NAMM show at POTR on Saturday, and have to go back tomorrow while im there may just take that one home, love the new fretboard wood you are useing, by the way, Kudos on the the TV Yellow and Special Green 4001C64 basses, the necks on them are very thin compared to my old 06, and both of them have become my favorite and main basses, left the rounds on the T V Yellow and had the cap bypassed and put fats on the Special Green but left the cap alone, they are a deadly combo, thank you sir for produceing them , I am extremly happy with themm..
That's one heck of a long... sentence!
Hey, that's a classic Ange sentence right there! :lol: 8)
Ange, if I didn't have my heart set on the Ruby Cii, that Midnight Blue Laredo or the Fireglo Laredo would have been on my radar. I hope you get it! :)
The JETGLO finish name should be officially changed to JETGLO ROCKS! :-)

I agree, I hope you do get that one, Angelo. 8)

Joey, I used Ruby for practice this past Saturday. What a great sound that Laredo Ruby has. :D I primarily used the neck pickup, which sounds great in a band context, soloing I prefer both pickups together, or the bridge pickup only, with the tone rolled off a bit. The bridge pickup actually sounds a lot like my magnetic horseshoe pickup when playing with a pick. :shock: 8) :D

Well it was a tough decision and I almost came home with both, but choose the Midblu Laredo, pased up on the blueburst Cii mainly because im not big on the blueburst and am gonna wait for eithier a Ruby Cii or 4003, so thee you have it...
