It is way overdue for a Mapleglo Love Thread!

[armybass]

I was attracted to Ric's like many people my age when I saw Geddy and his Jetglo. I like Jetglo but for some reason Mapleglo has always been my hearts desire. I now have two and could easily see more and more of them added to my collection. So lets see some Mapleglo love......

Here is my 2010 MG 4003....she is my main player....

[cjj]

Mmmmm, Mapleglo! I just might have something lying around the house that would qualify.

Let's see, how about something from 1984...

[armybass]

WOW! Dats purdy! All flamey and stuff.... looks fantastic!

[cjj]

Oh, here's something from 2008...

[cjj]

A bit more rummaging around turned up this one from 2010...

It's a bit "different" on the back...

[opticnerve]

Wow, nice Hall of Flamers there CJ!

Here's another...

[cjj]

Oh hey, here's one in birdseye from 2009!

[cjj]

OK, this one's not a bass so maybe it doesn't belong here, but the lowest string is tuned to the same A as a bass. Then again, it's not technically "Mapleglo" since they didn't call it that back in 1958. But what the heck, it looks pretty cool even if I do say so myself...
