Watt E mailed me this. A person drove to from NY to Toronto to give Watt his 65 EB-3!

This is a picture Watt is calling "The Andy Bass"



Really kind of someone to do.

That's cool.  Let's hope he keeps it with him in the hotel room.
Telling tales of drunkenness and cruelty

that's very kind of the donor!  I wonder if  he'll keep it & modify it or return it when the tour is over?

It's a gift, not a loan. I expect he'll keep it because in his tour diary he said "of course it'll have to be 'wattified' and such." In any case, what a nice thing to do.

Barklessdog

A nice $2000+ gift. Still, it would be cool to say Watt's up there beating the piss out of my bass up there.

Wow, what a great thing! It's like an American Uwe, maybe? :)

Barklessdog

Not- your not getting the blue non reverse!

That was not where I was thinking about... But great idea! I'll fake a T-Bird robbery!

Isn't that a 66 (vs 65)?

The snippy bastard is back - miss me much :P

Who are you, again?  :P ;) Yeah, we have missed you.

I didn't even look at it closely, but judging by the bridge, I'd say it's later than a 66.

watt said it was a '65 in his diary but that doesn't necessarily mean it is.  thanks again for the link Dave, it's a good read.

Trying to read his diary, to me, is like imagining what it feels like if you could here what a 1000 people are all thinking all at once. It hurts your head!
