Here's a clue.

Another clue.

You're becoming Jim Roberts?

A Byrds tribute band, and you're playing Chris Hillman's part. Yeah, I just saw that video screen capture come up on Youtube

I would imagine Ronn will be playing Chris Hillman's part...

Indeed two projects. Byrds tribute band, in which I play bass and sing. And, I'm assembling a lefty version of the "mystery" bass Hillman used for the TV taping below(and in JIMK's video).

Oh well, I guess no one remembers Jim. Chris looks like Jim Roberts in that screen capture, and IIRC, Jim used to play with a Gibson bass.

Hmm, the bass in the screen capture looks like it says Fender on it? What's the skinny on that?

You noticed that too, eh? Good question.

Complete except for a custom neckplate due today.

Yep, the bass is a true mystery, guess that's why it's always intrigued me.

So, I guess you'll be able to take this one on a plane, eh?
