D'oh!!! Gawsh, I just felt a little bit sick again...

Sheesh. I guess I need to stop by this week and check that bass out! Damn, that looks great!

Like THIS?

It's a bit high on the asking price. See if the flipper is able to move it. Don't recognize that person as an HFC member...

What a motley-looking crew! Have a blast, gang! BTW...that custom Studio is a GREAT color! Fit for a king...or some royalty or other!

That was actually a stock model until some point in '91 before the switch to an arched/carved top (see below - my '91):

JT: VERY cool! I'm loving that finish and the 3 coil deal. Subtle...like I like 'em. I've got a tele body from the 100mph dood - he was very reasonable, and did it to my specs in record time. It'll be great when I actually finish it. Holoflake is a tough finish to photograph - it freakin' rocks.

HB, BM!

Hope I didn't give anybody THAT impression! I've never had a problem with "axe contact" w/EL, as it's always been in good fun and we know each other's boundaries . It's all part of the playing experience, and the more fun you have, the more likely you are to see a chip or ding here or there, but the blast you're having while you play makes it all worthwhile. Enjoy your trip, pal! (I'll be sure to mention my 90% discount when I check on the store while you're away - ESPECIALLY if that Monaco bass comes in - ha ha ha!!)

That's why I wear my basses where I do! (hence the wink)

Elduave has been known to crash cymbals (and my basses ) with his shiny new guitars. His Zandard has been, uh, "relic'ed"...

That TV Jr. is PERFECT. Sheeeet!

Go to the EPA Website... There's apparently a severe penalty for dropping Supertramp music in any format randomly in the great outdoors. For disposal, the site provides a link to Department of Homeland Security.

Steve: Your 8 string is a stunner, but I bet it sounds amazing as well. My b-12M and b-4M were both shiny new custom orders at one point, but have been sweat logged, bumped and bruised and grunged-up. I still wipe 'em down and buff 'em up all purty, but am less concerned about a self-inflicted (note I said "SELF-INFLICTED") ding, scrape or scratch than I used to be. It pretty much comes with the territory. I'd like to keep my Monaco 3 as nice as possible though. I'd be far more bummed if that got battle-scarred, but I'm sure it'll have it's day too.

I clicked out of my reply post, but I am not a fan of those Gibsons (the ones with the 3 in-line knobs that don't line up). For that price, you can find a far superior late '80s/early '90s reissue (or an '80s Vector).

There is no excuse for this to not sell!! My excuse is that I don't have the $$ for it right now. That's STILL not a good one at that price!

Looks like an early '90s model.

Email sent, Sir! Tanx.

Hamer List prices INCLUDE the case.

That's a good start...

Naw...just OLD!!! (I was in High School when that song came out!)

Yep - I've been playing it that way since the band I was in in High School!

Lord, please tell me you aren't becoming a Jazzer!!!

I think that kids need life lessons. Disappointment should be one of them. (I KEEEEED! Whatever my Neice wants, she should get.)

I threw up in my mouth a little.
