I invited Albert here, because this is the place to be for Gibson basses.

 Welcome Albert.

I too wish for the Holy Grail, a Thunderbird II.

That's not a sixties bird. It a bicentennial from 1976. Huge difference in pickups.

 Dammit!


What do kidneys sell for these days?

 Moderately used, seasoned with all the best Scotch..........

Having two functioning kidneys is highly overrated.
