 Beautiful bass Mark!
That's a nice score, just don't see something that cool around here.
I love Grecos  ;)

That finish looks even better than a Gibson!  I've never seen a Greco EB2 before.  Nice score.  How much did it set you back?

Total including fees and shipping was just over $1000.  This will get some time in the Stones tribute, for the early 60's set.

But you only bought another bass very recently!

A bass is a bass is a bass. I thought Mark had left the GAS road into damnation behind him. Yet here he goes again ... Last time they had to send him to the jungles of Indonesia to cure him ...

But I've heard rumors that the oath of marriage is beckoning. That could explain the hasty purchase of basses we are witnessing before wedlock cracks down ... ; - )
