Did Tom Petersson steal Treena's Ric?

HOLY SHEET!  I forgot about her.  She used pictures of MY basses and said they were hers.  The whole thing came to a head when she posted a pic of a bass with a very distinct battle scar and I sent a pic of me using the bass, literally the night before....  Total BS artist...


BTW - Look for my interview of Tom Petersson along with a COMPLETE photo essay of his collection in an upcoming article in my column in Premier Guitar Magazine..

BTW BTW - I also just bought 2 tour used Tbirds from Tom...

Oh..  Tom has 2 Ric basses in the collection - Both will be discussed in my column..  He has a 60 or a 61 4000 in FG and he's owned it for about 40 years.  He also has that "Custom" neck pickup only bass.  The bass is a stripped 4001 from 72.  It has a swimming pool under the guard.  Tom says the bass is just deadly and has a distinct tone..

Ohhhh  - The big Treena bust came when she posted pix of one of my basses that I sold to Craig Brody of Guitar Broker and she had a pix of his pool in the shot.  Dope..

Now it all comes back. I knew you had some connection to it. And IIRC it happened in a chat. She claimed it was hers, then when she was called out, she denied it even though you could still scroll down and see her earlier comments. D'oh!

I found the thread from 2003 at RickResource where she posted about the Rick 4000. She had a couple more pics (neither with her in it), claimed it was a 1955 prototype, but it had two serial numbers, both from 1961. She did claim to be the owner.

Can you post a reminder when that article comes out please?

Congrats on the T-birds. Jealous...
