Gibson Basses / Re: Nice 1968 Gibson EBS 1250 Doubleneck Bass/Guitar on Ebay
« on: August 08, 2010, 12:44:03 PM »Nice and a bit strange animals these! First time I ever laid eyes on a Gibson doubleneck must have been somewhere in the 60's, in a picture from the movie Spinout, and in the hands of Elvis. A six-string bass on top of a six-string guitar. I was flabbergasted! That animal! And Elvis P! An unlikely combination! Next time around, it was Jimmy Page. Somehow the strange guitar kinda suited him better.
One would have thought that there was some kind of readyness for the Elvis-Gibson-pic, as the photo of Dylan with the F Jazz was already spread through the record business. But Elvis...
What's next? Cat Stevens with a Bach T-bird? Enrico Caruso with a double-bass? Fontella Bass with a guitar? Will it ever end?
I saw the Who in their first US tour (one of the few advantages of being old ya' know. . .) PT played and destroyed a double neck 6/12 and just for the record it was a P Bass on that tour.
PS Fontella Bass with a guitar made me laugh!

Other Bass Brands / Re: Can You See the Real Vox?
« on: July 31, 2010, 08:23:53 AM »I always associate the Vox Phantom with Phil "Fang" Volk in Paul Revere and the Raiders, although he played a Hofner Club and Epi Embassy onstage with them too.
Same here! I think it was a great TV prop that helped make their image.
Any shots of the body sans the guard? Just curious about the routing.

I have a 62 P C width.
It is wide and fairly shallow.
I can measure it this weekend if you'd like.

The Outpost Cafe / Re: 2010 Movies
« on: July 16, 2010, 05:17:52 PM »Re Alice in Wonderland: Much as I love Tim Burton and Johnny Depp, I thought that a disappointment. It was exactly what it professed to be: A Walt Disney kiddie flic with a bit of Tim Burton quirkiness and dark charm thrown in, stalled by a lamentably lame plot and a nauseating attempt at a politically correct ending ("Girls, do something with you life and the sky iwill be your limit!").
Somehow, I had expected a lot more. As disappointing as his Planet of the Apes remake.
Same here! I thought it was WAY over-hyped.

I couldn't tell from the pic if you had scraped the bindings down yet. . . I'd try the Dr's prescription to save misery and it will be shadowed by the neck.
