Cool 032?

Isn't #032 a 6-string? If so, the original owner is Bill Dickens. I will look up the # next week.

Well, if you want to buy a few, you are just a few threads away from temptation!

It's best just to give in to the temptation and splurge. You only live once on this big ball of mud!

Thumbs up "My Bass"

That was MY personal Bass until someone from I believe Venezuela convinced me to part with it. I have seen it listed for sale at least once in the last 10 years.

That was a great Bass with a few personal touches.
