Picked it up this weekend from Olivia's Vintage-5 1/2 hours there and 5 1/2 back down in Carbondale, Illinois. GREAT Guys to deal with. I can't say enough nice things about them. It was like walking into a warehouse museum. This bass kills. It's simply fantastic!!! I can't decide if it plays/sounds better than my blue one!!!

I had to downsize my gear in order to buy this. WELL worth it. Now I wait for my Hamer T bird 8 string to be painted blue metal flake and finish the Futura. Great weekend. And tomorrow I start a new job. wish me luck!!

This is tomorrow calling: Good luck on the new job, Cooper! And, wow! What a nice bass, plus the same for the blue one! Still remember the first time I plugged in a 60's T-bird II, into a Fender Dual Showman through two 15". Next thing I felt was the earth move. That was an experience.

Beautiful bass, Baz, and congrats on the new job!

In very good shape too! If it sounds anything like mine, it should be pretty dark for a TBird. Good luck with the new job!

We've taken too much for granted ... and all the time it had grown ...
From techno seeds we first planted ... evolved a mind of its own ...
