T-bird Sweden
« on: January 24, 2008, 04:46:01 AM »
Hi! Couldn't help but showing this fine little collection. It's not mine. Unfortunately! These basses belongs to a private collector here in northern Sweden. I just thought, this picture is to nice not to be seen...

Exactly, but why are they then not seen in your post?  ???  ;)

Nope, the collector is, in fact, two. 10-15 years ago I did an interview with them, concerning their collection, for the newspaper I work for. They are twins. Done a couple of other stuff on them too, very nice and humble guys, but they want to lay low nowadays. They've done only two exhibitions of their collection, latest was six years ago, at the Music Museum in Stockholm, Sweden. I got the pic as a teaser, when the twins fixed me up with a T-bird IV, 1976 model. And a teaser it was, as the five basses all are 60's. That pic has never let me have peace! I'm always starving for a red T-bird II, reversed model, and blaming me for opportunities missed. Who ain't?

What, Uwe? Can't you see them? I am not really surprised. When it comes to computers, I'm a fool on the hill. But it seems as Machahan can see it? Should I post the pic to you, Uwe, so you can get it in the Last bass?

Since the pic is an attachment to the post, it looks like the board requires that you are signed in to view it.  Doesn't show up if you are viewing as a guest, but it appears once you sign in.

Nice collection!  I was trying to figure out what color that last NR bird is - golden mist poly?

Yes, I'd sat Golden mist. I do not know whether that colour is original, but I can check with the twins. Another question, meanwhile: How does one act to get a photo in? Obviously I do not know...javascript:void(0);

Nice flock of II's. Ah yes, the Åhden brothers. It has been quiet around them for a while.

But I am logged in. I still see nothing. No icon, no pic, no attachment, nothing to click on.

What are you guys clicking on? Where is it?

There is a photo, an attachment uploaded to the forum (not on an external site), directly beneath the text in his first post. Must be something in your browser settings if you're logged in and still can't see it.

Still see nothing ... never had that happen before ... is there anything Staffan did that other people don't do when posting a pic or are you all continuously posting pics that I don't see?  ???

I could see the hawk in George's Outpost Cafe thread. How is that different from how Staffan posted his pic (which he has meanwhile sent me as an email, tack!)?

Well, you see, Uwe. I've got that Magic touch. That dear old Magic Touch. The Touch that is to much, a Touch Too Much (as another pair of siblings, way down yonder, used to say).
But really; I do not know what I did. I might try it again! Be warned! You may not see it coming, but you'll know when it's there!

Maybe I should just pretend that I see it?  ;D

My pics are hosted at Photobucket so they wouldn't apply to not seeing one hosted here.
