Hi, this site was recommended to me by a nice guy from Holland. Looks allright, so I'll check out from time to time...

Here's my Gibson axe: 1974

Welcome, you'll like it here!

And say 'no' to the German who's going to say your Hobbit needs black hardware.

Welcome aboard.  I think I know what I'm going to do with my LP bass build next year.   ;D

Welcome - that is indeed a nice specimen. I have one of those myself, though she appears to have been around the block a bit more than yours (very yellowed from age and smoke-filled bars).

That Triumph looks very cool in white! I am jealous.

I also joined the forum this week. So that's two dutchmen in one week.

Forgot to tell about my Gibson basses: I have a '68 EB3 and two G3's.
I have owned an ebony '74 Ripper and a SG RI supreme maple. Sold both of them.
Think I am also going to sell one of the G3's. Probably the '78 maple one.
I really like the sound of the G3's but I have bought too much stuff lately, so one of them has to go.
