Here's a pic I found while doing a search today. I thought it was pretty cool. I like the three pickup model but it would be cooler in red.

Ooh, that 3-pickup model might whet the appetite of some people we know. ;)
The white one in the middle is already you know whose........ ;)
I remember a red 3-pickup model w/chrome covers on Ebay a few years back. That was some *serious* drool material.
I've seen two pics of two different three pick up birds on the ole Pit. the red one and a cream one, both with chrome pick ups. I guess someone still has it and will post it here soon!

Overend Watts? ;D
"Overend Watts? "
Well I *wish* it was mine, I love the look of single pick up 'Birds. But George (Old Man C) had one and then passed it on to Uwe. And yeah Overend had a 60's white one too, very Rockstar!
I do remember the white single pickup model George once had, but the three-pickup version doesn't ring a bell.
Yeah, I lust for that white one too!
That Georgiebird I inherited from Herr Carlston is actually the piano-rrringiest bird I have, bit Ric'ish even, I really like it though the pup has to be slanted quite a bit to get an even string response.
One of those three pup beasts really needs introduction into ze klleckshün I think ... Can't see the pics from here though as I'm on a vacation trip in a Danish beach cottage with my Blackberry ... Might get the laptop I have with me running tomorrow.

If that birdie ever makes it back to the States it'll be to come home to me! :'(
Here's one pic from some years back (Dudepit v 1 or 2):

That is all you would give it, right?
:D I'll define that love by saying I'll play it with my amp cranked up loud in front of lots people, wearing the requisite miniskirt and chrome bullets.......That bass needs to be seen!
