 More footage shot Friday night back in the trenches. This camera audio doesn't have much low end. I appear to be having a good time. A special note of interest for Mark is I'm wearing misses size 12 flare jeans. ;)

Very cool Scott. :toast:
Too bad the cameraman is so in awe of the Les Paul he doesn't know he's missing the most gorgeous Pelham Blue NR Tbird!

You're starting down that slippery slope kinda late in life Scott  ;D

Super cool 'Bird tho!

 That's the 10 dollar Thundebird, started out as a scrap I bought on ebay. I rebuilt the body, Dolan did the neck. It was white primer for a while. I got the bright idea to use Reranch and rattle can and paint it in Pelham Blue. I'm not happy with the results the color is very uneven, I shot a few coats of clear and put it back together so I don't lose the parts. I'll most likely send it out for a proper job at some point. Great sounding and playing bass though.

That was the shard body that would make a nice clock bass?

Wow!
