I took that pic when I was touching up a nasty chip on the face of that V63. There's a thread about it in the Reflections Of A Curmudgeon Forum.Wildberry wrote:FG basses wear pink make-up?rickenbrother wrote:

Definitely put the toasters on the FG, Scotty. I don't know why, but I just think they'd look better there.scotty wrote:Love that 330 too Mel,Im going to slap a couple of toasters on my 330 next week.

Last in my morning photo session was my 1979 330 VP, a really odd Fireglo. The shading lightens just ever so slightly in the middle of the guitar; it almost isn't a burst at all. I wonder if this is a unique spray pattern, or if there are others like it somewhere out there. Also, the toasters are extremely hot and do not jangle at all--in fact this guitar is a rocker that can SCREAM! Kind of like playing toaster-buckers.
My husband picked this one up about a year and a half ago when he was perusing Japanese eBay--the price was really fair, even factoring in the overseas shipping. It came missing the top on the treble volume knob.
