It's down to a good BIN now.

Don't tempt me, no collecting for fins here, and I just bought the Smartwood LP, the BFG one and the Ripper II, I need to cool down!!!

It would give you some new wardrobe inspiration. Seriously, you've been wearing the same stuff for a long time now.  8)

If I would be interested in buying any of those, this particular color would hold me back

That color might work well in my 80's hair band tribute I'm playing in June...

 You wound me Herr Moderator....... I shop for Girlie stuff all the time, the problem is my taste doesn't change and so what I have looks similar..... :)

Nice bass, nice color, if I had the cash I'd hit that.

I would play it. I hit myself at the head now, for not ordering a pink Buzzard.

Mark you bought the Traynor ? I must have a full report ! Btw with tube amps always bring a back up, I do and I carry a full set of replacment tubes and fuses. I know it seems like way to much trouble but you just never know, sadly much of the "unreliability" of tube amps can be traced to the pig in a poke tubes available today  :sad:
