I bought this '67 around '72.



when you get right down to the nitty-gritty, all of the others I have are superfluous.

This is THE one!

Warmoth 1 pc. Ash/ReRanch Butterscotch Blonde. I hadn't even scraped the lacquer off the frets yet when I took this picture. I have to get some better pictures one of these days.

Brent Mason would be proud, but a concentric pot would have kept it looking what is is Fauxing..

Just the Faux

I apologize for being opinionated about it. but why would you put that 3rd pot on that thing?? It seems to be out of sorts with a guy who's amp looks so retro. ;) [I am fun-nin with you]

Sweet flame o that Neck!!

Ciao

Well Rob, that's all cool 'cuz my Don Mare pickup arrived and now all is "correct" (switch tip, knobs, caps, resistor, wiring everything is "right")
The EMG setup was temporary to see what it sounds like for my project to change my 72 Deluxe RI into a 72 Custom RI.



Phew, that was a close one.

My 1955-ish partscaster. I started a thread for it yesterday, but I reckon it fits here, too.

Dog, not nly does it count, it's awesome. Is that a Precision or Tele-bass? I can't recall one from the other. It was a long time ago that a guy in my band
had one of those.

Kinda close in color, I'd say:



The build has got a bridge Keystone wired right to the jack now, plays just fine
li kat.

See this lil '66? Now this is what relic'n should look like; this is natural honest yecch I put there by a-playin' it.
