Title: An old blonde with a history
Post by: Dave W on January 12, 2016, 08:12:38 AM
Fender Precision Bass 1951 Natural Blonde (https://reverb.com/item/947243-fender-precision-bass-1951-natural-blonde) on Reverb

Priced too high. Still a very nice example with a known history.

Very nice, but definitely wall-hanger material for someone with more money than they can find a use for.

Got to admit a liking for those beasties... it would be cruelty to leave as a wall hanger...

Certainly, I'll just get your hors d'oeuvres, hors d'oeuvres which must be obeyed at all times without question.  ;D

The whole Rumpole series is currently on acorn.tv (online subscription channel). I don't have cable TV, for 4.99/month I get lots of great British shows, new and old.
