That might help Paul W. some if there are agreed upon designs.......unless of course he has some designs of his own in mind. I say whatever works. Also, I do like the idea of a fireglo 4003 for the bass players 'cause thats what I play, but I'd take a jetglo, or mapleglo, or....or...

Too cool -- but I'd have to see something in a 360/6! I'm a "bass-less" kinda guy. Does that make me "de-bass?"

Maybe a pic of Johns "dumpster bass"?...would be appropriate for the bassists??....
....kind of appropriate, isn't it??
It's definitely a conversation starter AND it's unique to this forum, I believe.....

Just got back from the music store where they took a digital pix for me - Model 430 (THE Ultimate Gig'n Axe)... In eye appealing JetGlo.
Notice the bridge cover removed for "muted" guitar sounds...
Eat yer hearts out...

My two-penneth....I agree with everything really. The forum logo on the front & two shirts, one with a 4000 series bass & another for the guitarists. 360 has been suggested, but what about a 330 or a 360v64....classic shapes. Please, please, please DON'T make it a 320! I'll have some of each.
Also, thanks to Mr Hall & Peter for permission & of course JJ, for offering to organise the project.

OK, everyone. I'll contact John Hall and Peter McCormack off-list and discuss their requirements. Of course they will ask for and receive final OK in design and first sample phases.
I'll have to get with Cafe Press and check on prices, colors, mechanical requirements, etc., along with whatever their basic fees are, if any.
Give me two weeks max on this first "requirements" phase.
In the meantime, I'm going to be polling your design ideas, so now's the time to speak up. I want to come up with something that pleases the Forum membership, bass and guitar players. I already see some interesting stuff has been presented for both guitar and bass. And, yes, this is on my nickel, but it's too much fun to turn down! All I ask is reasonable patience through the process.

I'm sure everybody will "try" to be good BUT patience isn't the strong suit of this forum

Paul....if you have a Paypal account(said while ducking thrown objects), we could send you some contributions to help defray costs....

Not necessary. I volunteered and will do this gratis. It's fun and a good change from my purposeless existence.

I'll be easy. Whatever everyone else decides on. And if we have choices of guitar or bass, I'll take the former.
Just lemme know when you get to cost and where to pay.
Thanking you in advance, Paul.
