By the way, here's a video of Ray playing the bass in 1961:

The attached picture looks like there is some kind of fold in the bass - right above the right F hole, it's actually the fold in the picture of the bass when I tried to scan the picture.

Wish I could get that same groove as the great Mr. Brown!

Cheeers,

Groove? Dave, come over with the Bass. I will show you where Ray left it..

Also, is the Extension around the Scroll or was the Scroll cut for it?

I just wanna know how much work I will need to have done to put the Chromatic Extension on it when I get the Bass!
