'72 and '73 Group Shot

Post by libratune »

Inspired by Tony M's photos, I lined up my four amigos yesterday for a group shot.

From left to right: MD, ME, MB and LL:

The LL (CPI) was recently restored with the help of some forumites who provided missing parts. Special thanks to John Fay. 8)

I have NO idea what to do with those skinny stringed things... I'm just a bass player...

Great group there Ron!

I especially love the Jetglo. The checkerboard binding against black paint really looks classy!

Do you have any full length shots?
