I believe by the time the moron filled in the sides of the new violin shape, the soul had departed this world entirely.  I am neither an atheist nor an animist, but mojo too is gone forever for this thing.  Whatever was around for Mayall snoring was a pleasant memory, and nobody that heard or played this poor thing back in those days had anything to do with the post-mortem.  Just badness. 

Spiritually there is no greater proof of universal good than the sight Bobby Orr flying through the air in a Bruins uniform, and no greater proof of evil than him hobbling around in a Black Hawks uniform - and this bass.
Model One and Schallers?  Ish.

And be sure to try the veal.

And when you use the men's room, don't eat the mints. They're imported.

By The way, I contacted Tony, and he confirms that it was his bass. Plus he's gonna do a Fly Guitars interview (I need to finish Dennis Dunaway first)


Great news about the interview, Tony is a fantastic bassist. Could you ask him about what happened to his old Telecaster bass he used with Greenslade. Did he sold it to Stewart Copeland who then used it for his Klark Kent stuff perhaps? Tony also did play a 60's reverse Thunderbird II with Curved Air.
