Cool, I didn't know that.

Well, I didn't know George Harrison was playing the bass part on a Telecaster guitar on "Two of Us."  This is in spite of the fact that supposedly I'm a George Harrison aficionado.  I will say, however, that I never much kept up with those songs on the "Let It Be" album and consider that by far their weakest album.  I've definitely listened to it the least.

Appears to be gone now.

Open the link in incognito and change your location to UK.

It's not there now. There's an SG Bass and a NR Bird but not that one.

Yes, and it wasn't there.

That peanut butter fin is so ghastly, it's automatically endearing.



Anybody who buys it must be a good person.

 I don't mind the bass, I'm not a good enough person to buy it tho!

I like the TBird pickups, not the color.

I like it. But... "Nut Butter"? I'm surprised the comments have been so tame thus far.

While I certainly like Hipshot bridges, the Babicz bridge is the one that looks the most appropriate on that bass. It looks like a more evolved 3-point, where the Hipshot bridges look like something new.

 You're far too kind, it's damn ugly.

Ohhh very nice matte finish, but the nut color? No, just no. Gibson must be nuts!
