You'll have to take the Minimalist Bass Player's Oath: "I promise to play the root, the whole root and nothing but the root, so help me Dusty Hill."

That's a bugger... it's all scratched up...
-
I'll ask for a discount then.. ;)

Isn't that the factory finish for that bass? They should throw in a free chisel and chainsaw in case you want to add to the ambience....

Yes..that's the finish from Fender custom shop

glad you got the bass you wanted. i do wonder how the idea of a reliced dusty hill bass came about. all the basses i've seen him with are pretty clean looking, although i did see one with the wear marks above the pickup.
-
That is one of the coolest looking basses I have ever seen. If it plays as good as it looks, you've got a bass for life.
-
I love it! I love the Tele headstock in general, having it reversed works for me too. I do like the black one much better than the gold one.
-
I like it too. Enjoy!
-
I put a lefty neck on my Jazz bass (which is also sporting PJ pickups and currently isn't working). Where did Dusty get the idea?
-
people have been doing that since the sixties both to basses and guitars.
-
I gather Glenn Cornick did it out of necessity as he wore out the frets on his Jazz bass. Clearly a lefty neck in the Rock and Roll Circus video, but by 1969 he had another neck on there with a weird headstock. :-\

She remembers me something familiar. Mine has a little more chrome, that is always good ;)

You made that?? Nice job!. And wow to the CDs...lol

Yes, I did her and plays lovely. It has an overwound pickup done by myself that is killer. There are about 20000 cd and 4000 vinyls in my living room.
Here is the sister, also done by me, that growls even more

I love the Dusty!!

I really love the 51 single coil and the entire very first Fender bass concept. Never liked too much the split coil and "clankete clank" soud that forces me to put the tone knob to 0. I did myself some split coils. They sound good, but the the single coil sound is unsurpassed to my hearing.

Amen!
