Thanks to all of u. Much appreciated the best wishes.

Wow,,,Happy Birthday to you all.

Happy Birthday. All the best

impossible to do. Might have better luck with Seinfelds "master of my domain" challenge.

Yeah, a triple pickup with block inlays. I think an employee built it for himself. The multicolored one was Vernon Reid's, I believe: In fact, I'll just say that my top 10 probably are owned by Hamerica lol. I nominate MCChris's Vernon Reid axe!

WOW!!! Cool Gits. Is that a white Phantom to the left of you? What is the multicolored one snoozing on the sofa?

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

happy birthday all.

Yes, mine is from the kramer era. I mentioned the comparison because it made it more evident on the changing of the colour. I know fading does happen to a degree (and you cannot really fairly compare one era's finish to the other), But I never knew how bad it did to mine. Thanks again for giving me more info.

Crunchee ---- Thanks for the link. I Never thought that the clear coat might be the culprit. Cmathes--- Thanks for your insight. First I heard that the actual stain might be crap. Always respected your knowledge. Armitage ----- interesting that you mention Musicman, I have seen numerous exampes of different degrees of fading/discolouration of the years. Thanks to all for all the info.

Hi all. I recently had the chance to compare my 20+ year old Spector ns 2 bass against a new model one and noticed my bass seems to be losing its colour ( so to speak). Even though mine has spent a good portion of its life in its case, I noticed that the once impressive deep blue stain seems to be showing a "slight greening" colour. Is it my eyes or is this really happening? A few people have told me that "stage lights" could have initiated the change. Not too sure I believe this, Although I have seen a once bright fuscia SS 1 fade to a dullish pink. any insight.

Would keith Richards fall in this catagory as well??

Bravo to you on all accounts. Beautiful guitar. Congrats.

Looks HOT!. I look forward to seeing it in action.

Man alive that is looking sharp. Now we just got to get yousome leaopard skin stilettos boots. What are you doing for PU;s?

F'n nice..... Can't wait to see it with the fuscia.

Any chance it will be completed by late Feb early March? I will be in Vegas around that time and would love to see it live on stage.

Prayers and well wishes to you and your family.

I enjoyed watching the nut puching cuz I knew it meant that none of these knobs would be able to reproduce!

Damn, I missed that... That would have been awesome to see. You are right though, alot of these rap/ hip hopheads that attending/watching such things as that have no idea of the coolness. Fuck 2 turn table and a microphone !!!!!!!

Asshats is right! probably only cool thing about the show and they go and cut it. An what the hell happened to Axl? his braids look like those beaded seatcovers that taxi cab drivers are so fond of!

Anyone catch the MTV video awards? Usually I do not partake in such crap, But as I was clicking by the channel, saw Billy Gibbons playing with the Racontours. Very cool indeed.

Happy birthday
