Thanks, Ilan.  8)

I never knew this forum existed until recently; it is nice to see a bunch of familiar "faces" here.

Mostly faces only mothers can love!

Face for radio! Ha ha... Congrats on the Snowglo. I've been SO CLOSE to getting my 4003S painted white, but I know it will look like hell within a year.

Hey Jeff, welcome and congrats on the Snowglo.

Didn't you once fit a 4004 with toasters? Or am I remembering wrong?

Yes, my first 4004, the Cii that had been subsequently converted by Mark Gilbert into a 5 string that Paul Boyer currently owns.  The Snowglo Laredo is slated to get Mike Lull T-Bird, Bartolini soapbars, and a few Jazz Bass pickups, as many as I can cram in between the neck and bridge!  :mrgreen: :vader:

Saw this at Guitar Showcase in San Jose the other day:


Snowglo? by Harry 3, on Flickr

The tag said "1 of a kind" - should have gotten a close up of the tag, price was $1999. There wasn't a date on it.

Sure looks like it. The price is in line considering the $2659 list.

I hope that door is locked.  ;)

Great looking basses!
