What do I have?
« on: November 18, 2014, 12:14:55 PM »
I can't remember where or when I got this TR cover.  Anyone know what TB it might have come from?  It's a little larger than the new ones.  Getting old is a pain in the rear!

I'm fixin' a hole where the rain gets in..........cuz I'm built for a kilt!

The TRC on the black one I sold you also had white script.

Now you are challenging my feeble brain.  I checked the black special ed and the TR cover has gold lettering.  Could I have changed it out?  I wonder if that's what I did.  Well, if you're sure, I'm thinking that's a logical explanation for what happened. 

At least now I can put it in the case where it belongs!

Yup. It's more than 200 years old, that is why the gold has turned into white. All of man's creations decay.

Faithful ones! With outdated bridges and senselessly weight adding pup surrounds, poisonous nickel and such.
