Rob & Roman, if I haven't said it, "Thanks".

This was a project that became a labor of love.  I'm happy to have waited for the end result.  It wasn't always easy and patient.  I think I've chewed my fingernails off a few times, and I have this curious eye twitch...

Dave,Scott (GOT) and all,

Sent Roman an email requesting an invoice, but didn't hear back. Will send him another and see if we can get it straightened out. Scott (GOT) if they have sent you an invoice with you correct info, I'd go ahead with the order, I would assume that they have a bass for both of us.

Dave, thanks for the heads up on this, I have'nt kept up with it ( other than the usually unanswered email to BaCH )

I'll keep you posted,

Scott (BassVI)

If the invoice sent to Scott Dasson has all the correct information for Scott VI, maybe Scott D should just email him the invoice and let him take it from there?

Mark,

Yea, I'm still mostly alive................................going well out Seattle way? Trying to reform a band that has been on "vacation" for over two years is a time consuming enterprise, I'll leave it at that  ;D but hopefully some pretty good tunes will come of it.

Excellent suggestion George.........Mr. Dasson, could you forward me said email?

Hope everyone is doing well, I promise to try to keep up with thing here a little better,

Cheers,

Scott (B-VI)

The non reverse has been the most popular of the rare Gibsons for a long long time, first in the Pit, from then on. It has to be the most requested basses to be re-issued here and previously.
Rob you should do a poll.

A couple of months ago I saw this one on eBay, thought about it for a couple of hours, went back to bid on it and it was gone. It's a '90s Epiphone NR reissue. I'm still kicking myself for not hitting it faster.

Heh, I emailed Roman this morning who emailed me immediately. I can still get a BaCHbird as long as it's black or blue, so I've signed on for a black one.  :)

Damn, I've emailed him twice in the last 2 weeks with no response. I would prefer a white one but I guess I could settle for the blue.  ;D

Might try again from my gmail account

And of course,

Mucho Thanks to Rob and Roman!
 I'm sending another e-mail to Roman/BaCH regarding my invoice, as it's at least a month old, just to make sure it (a black one) is still available.
 Roman if you're still checking in......this would be from Scott in Oklahoma

Woooo Hooooo! another Black bass, I think this will be number 12 or 13.......I'm actually releived it won't be a white one........or blue (I hope ;D)

Cheers!

There are several Fenderbirds worldwide. It is a legendary design made famous by John Entwistle.
I have never seen a long scale 59 style EBO with Tbird bridge/tailstop and Tbird pickup.

I think I saw a video of a Lynyrd Skynryd live performance  and it looked to me like Leon Wilkeson had a NR Fenderbird. This was a while back and it took me a while to figure out what the hell it was.

Roman emailed me this morning and told me I'd get an invoice today. I'm using earthlink and when I first emailed him I put my address in the body of the email as well and he's had no problems emailing back.
