Great shot! Love that they are in front of a Fender banner...

They are for sale as a collection. However, no one has seriously stepped up to the plate.

Louder bass!.

The Sparkling Burgundy seems to play a little nicers than the rest. They sound the same, thunderous...

I only find the backdrop disconcerting!!!  :mrgreen:

Looks like a 60's Fender amp at the bottom of the picture; nothing disconcerting about that.

It's much worse than that - look what's behind those lovely basses, if my eyes do not deceive me  :o the obscured letters could be completed to the unspeakable  :-X, "the-brand-that-may-not-be-named".  :mrgreen:

This is the amp below the basses. Hope it passes muster.

Indeed. I have a head just like that.

And there is a forum just below this one for "the-brand-that-may-not-be-named".

HAH!  As a Fender fan, I shall skip gaily through, chirping "FenderFenderFenderFender..."  :mrgreen: :rolleyes:

The powers of evil, undeterred, take hold of the Gibson Forum ...

Just imagine a still shot of Al Pacino as Scarface, but instead of holding a gun he's holding a Fender Jazz...

Nice bunch, and the 355 too!  The Showman was the best bass amp Fender made then.
Model One and Schallers?  Ish.
