cats & their basses
« on: February 03, 2008, 04:54:30 PM »
We think we own all that gear, or that house, but deep down we know that our cats are just letting us use them for the time being. For example, Sadie, my 12 year old black cat, and my 1975 Alembic Series I doubleneck:


She even lets me use the case:

Find my black cat Booker T. in my Avatar:) My black cat Booker's gonna be a drummer, but my grey tiger Curtis will be a bass player. As you all know he's John Entwistle reincarnated,

Booker T:


My girlfriend:


Curtis:





Evidence: (it's the grey beard, isn't it?)


Booker T. again:


Curtis:




Love:

BTW: I would love to see Booker T, sleeping in the white inside of my Gibson case. Or in the black Guild case of my girlfriends acoustic Guild. But I think he hates the smell or so.

oh, i see what's going on here. you are using your innocent cats to pimp all of your gear. very clever, but evil. :) they are probably plotting a messy and fragrant revenge even as you read this. :o

Curtis licking the Hello Kitty guitar is a great shot.  :)
