I could swear this one has been for sale before, maybe back in the Pit days?? Am I crazy and/or confused? Maybe a new addition to Mark's flock?

You're not imagining things, he did have that up once before in the Pit v.3 days. Owner is a friend of mine, I've played it but at that time it still had the EMG Js in it.

That is one ugly color. Mustard-something.

Some people have really bad taste.
Music was better when ugly people were allowed to make it.

As I remember it, it's not quite as mustard looking as the pics show.

Some people sit on their taste!

Maybe!
I don't have the biggest house, and keeping 12 basses takes some room...........I'm not as fortunate as Uwe, they won't let me store them at work  ;)

You have absolutely no idea, Mark, what I'm going through here! I get notices from our office landlord admonishing me that my modest collection of scarcely 112 Gibsons and Epis is supposed to create "fire life safety concerns" and that I'm allegedly blocking escape routes.

This ain't no free country no more. Lynyrd Skynyrd should write a song about it, really.

Staring at that event horizon is a dirty job, but someone has to do it; something's going to come back out of it one day...
