You're lucky I'm not into that one. I'm looking for something I can mod a little. It'd be a shame to touch that.

Smithereens bring back fond memories of the old days as my group were label mates with them briefly when they were independant. Didn't know them well, except that I remember they were very humble.

How many Blackstars does the man need?

As many as he can buy!

It's the finish I think, they all seemed to have paint issues of some sort. Either way it's off to Dolan for a refin if I get it. If you think that's bad, there's a Redneck floating around that somebody stripped to bare wood (no sealer)the guy was going to sell it cheap, then his 16yr old son decided that he wanted to learn to play bass. I can only imagine what's happened to it by now.
