Thanks ya'll! Doing great, though I may be letting it go soon. I have a friend who is coveting it pretty hard, and I'm low on space. Plus I have 2 L-1000s and he turns over equipment, so I can always find something to trade. Any advice on good Gibson's to check out? And what is yours posted in the never let go of thread? Reminds me of those old Wilshire electric, which I've always found super attractive.
That bass is my '63 Epiphone Embassy. It was owned by both Tom Petersson and Jon Brandt of Cheap Trick at different times. Mark can attest to why this bass is a keeper. I was happy that he was the one who had it for about 8 years. He gave it a good home.
You can't go wrong with a Thunderbird, and I had one of the Series II BaCH Birds. For the money, it's an outstanding bass. If someone here offers one up, go for it.
