I thought about that...But Golden Mist Poly may be better...or a ragged Pelham Blue....But then I would have to have my refin Pelham BLue Bird painted white...

Baz, I swear, you must go through as many basses as Jerome (a/k/a funkycarnivore) used to do at the old Pit. Only yours are all Gibsons and Gibson-type Hamers and customs.
