neepheid - may I ask - what color is your Victory? It looks gold to me, which I don't think I have ever seen.

It is gold, it is a refinish though - the Victory came to me in a rather sorry state.

Note the difference in body shape between the Jerry Jones and the Danelectro Longhorn.

Nice family!  
I still have Longhorn GAS... a guy I know locally plays a copperburst JJ, and it sounded great when I heard it live.  One of these days I might cave in and try one.

Wow- nice BCRs!  That Bodine is great - don't see those around much.  Looks nice without the stringers.  Always been a fan of the Eagle bodies.

My TJ Mock has been getting most of the action here lately.  That thing would drive an ergonomics freak nuts, but it looks mighty fine, and the sound is just perfect.  It absolutely KILLS live.  I've had it just over a year now.  The wires were breaking away from the preamp board when I bought it, but I fixed that and its been solid since.  Love that bass.



The same guy I bought the Mock from is now selling his Bich Supreme 8-string in GRW.  Hopeful that I can pull that off...

You won't regret it.  I bought one for my son to learn (he promptly stole my G&L), and when I took it out to a local jam night, it held its own against every bass in the house except for an old Fender.

I keep thinking that I need to add on old B.C. Rich to the collection someday. That Mockingbird of Chromium's is very nice!

Those look really nice!  Dunno about the bridge, but I'd like to try one.

Nice looking Waterstones.  I've been GASing for a 12ver... one of these days.

Curious- what is that perched up there atop the TubeWorks head?

Hi Chromium, its a old Bogen M330 tube pa amp perched on the Tubeworks heads. I use it for the Rotating speakers in the 2 Leslies.

Nice!  Which Leslies do you have?

I have an old 145 (seen in the corner below), but need to pick up the preamp pedal for it in order to use with bass.  Just run it with a  Hammond M101 currently...

Hi, they are custom built unpowered Leslie cabinets with treble and bass rotors and a front loaded old Altec and Ev, I got them from the estate of an Hammond player. They were kinda in kit form but in a couple hours I had 2 working Leslies for $20.00! They sound incredible with the 12er, nothing like 200 lbs of chorus pedal.
