NBD: Joining the dark side of the force
« on: July 12, 2014, 11:37:29 AM »
I had an unexpected new bass day a couple of weeks ago.  After lusting after the Blackbirds for many years, I finally was able to take the plunge...








I've known and occasionally handled this particular bass for about two years, and always liked the way it sounded and played.  I think its voice is unique enough to justify its keep among my two other birds - the Bach NR with TB+, and (my favorite) the '76 w/re-wired parallel sidewinders:






Many thanks to Andy for this bass! (...and to Baz for giving him a reason to sell it)     :toast:

 Congratulations Joe!

That should probably just be sent up here to Seattle for safe keeping  ;D

Glad that it went to a good home, and that I will still get to play it occasionally  ;D  I really loved this bass and I know you will as well.
