The Last Bass Outpost

Weeeell, Uwe? Comment, thank joo!!!

Yes, I'd sat Golden mist. I do not know whether that colour is original, but I can check with the twins. Another question, meanwhile: How does one act to get a photo in? Obviously I do not know...javascript:void(0);

Nope, the collector is, in fact, two. 10-15 years ago I did an interview with them, concerning their collection, for the newspaper I work for. They are twins. Done a couple of other stuff on them too, very nice and humble guys, but they want to lay low nowadays. They've done only two exhibitions of their collection, latest was six years ago, at the Music Museum in Stockholm, Sweden. I got the pic as a teaser, when the twins fixed me up with a T-bird IV, 1976 model. And a teaser it was, as the five basses all are 60's. That pic has never let me have peace! I'm always starving for a red T-bird II, reversed model, and blaming me for opportunities missed. Who ain't?

This is really fantastic! A company in the Czech Republic, who's gone all the way and reproduced a nr T-bird! And might be willing to make a reverse model, and - this is over the top! - maybe can be talked into reproduce the bass that time forgot, the great Embassy! Listen: Isn't it almost like a wet dream come true???
And, as I've said in another forum, I've got a Bach copy of the 1951 P-bass, complete with the input jack on the edging. Since that bass is a really good copy, with nice thin neck, and wellsounding pickup, I am sure that the Bird will be great too! I'm hoping for a reversed T-bird II, but just the fact that there's someone out there willing to do the work, at an OK price, is marvelous!!
