I have a friend who decided to sell his White Falcon bass. I decided to help him out and take it off his hands. I'll post some pics of it when it arrives. I know it's over the top but I have this darn weakness for hollow bodies!

Meanwhile............

I agree. GAS is a terrible thing to waste!! I wasn't looking for one, they are incredibly overpriced new, but he needed to sell and I took the opportunity.

Yeah, you're right Scott. Opportunities like this don't come around often. I told my wife she can sell and throw a big party when I'm gone!

Yeah, she gets pissed at me, but I tell her to be realistic. They are investments and when I die, have a ball!!!

I might sell something just to even things out. Right now, she's not insisting I do so. Yeah!

I think she'll freak when she sees it. It's over the top, but beautiful too!
