I was going to post this, but it was gone within 10 minutes of being posted!

But my question is, did Bionic Joe buy it only for the pickups?  ;D

NO, DENIS!!!!! I BOUGHT IT FOR THE TUNERS!!!!!!!!! SERIOUSLY, IT IS A BEAUTIFUL BASS. IV'E OWNED GREAT 76'S AND LAME WEAK SOUNDING 76'S BUT EVERY SUNBURST 76 SOUNDED LIKE ASS AND PLAYED LIKE A 2 X 4. NOW HAD THIS BEEN AND ORVILLE OR GRECO OR ECT, ETC, I WOULD HAVE BOUGHT IT FOR THE PICKUPS (IF IT WAS CHEAP) REMEMBER YOU OUTBID ME, SO JUST TO GIVE YOU AN IDEA HOW "DESPERATE" I AM FOR PICKUPS. HEY MAN...I ONLY NEED ONE NOW!!!! GETTING READY FOR MY FUTURA 8 STRING BASS!!!

Ugh... why do people get so upset about this on message boards? I think it's kind of amusing!  :P

Joe's enthusiastic quest for parts is amusing too.

 I think Warren Zevon did a song  "Excitable boy"  That's Joe when it comes to Thunderbirds!

Right on, Joe  ;D

He kept trying to buy Greco's just to rip out their pups, Bionic Joe they all say...
But Denis nipped in there so Joe's just having no luck, Bionic Joe they all say...
