the burg is so classy but it needs black plastic.

The Pelham Blue in the Instagram post looks authentic, but it doesn't look faded to me. Guess we'll have to see more examples.

I think it's hard to take pictures of. There are some real, non photo studio pics and the blue looks a bit green-ísh as some other Epi's in this colour.

I love the fact it has a blue top only and not all blue. I think that's a bit too much on such large basses.

Everything but the face of the head and the maple top on the neck are "blue" on my RD... :mrgreen:

Of course it's a matter of taste, but I think the silverburst one is totally silvernurst, the white one totally white and toe metallic blue one (Royal Blue?) totally blue with mother of pearl bindings. But I like the understated look of a coloured top only.

I assume that most of our subscribers here would want to watch this video for the featured bass guitar and contain all discussion thereto. It's a matter of focus, restraint and intellectual discipline - qualities this forum of fora has a long tradition of excelling at.

Ah yes, and what was it you were saying about me, Herr Kollector...?  Humour is a dish, best served with relish... :mrgreen:

I love you too, Ken, my man-size squirrel!

The translation was flawless.

DD's seem to have been a partly family affair previously, and has (Devil's) spawned a variety of named acts with similar components...? Even a presumed mom get's in on the deal (with the Devil...?)

But is it country, muddled genetic relationships aside?

I used to joke about my (Kentuckian) wife liking "all kinds of music... country AND western..."

She recently corrected me... she doesn't much like western music... not that keen on bluegrass ether... :o

I'd say the DD's are more Emmylou than Country... to each their own...

   Love the colors! Hopefully the Vintage Pro Thunderbird will get some new colors.
