He's a Travelin' Man

[bovinehost]

Off to Atlanta for a short visit with the bassmonkeee and then off to Europe for some adventures.
I think the bassmonkeee plans on some photo ops...so here's where he can post 'em.

So long, Heinz! I hear it's hard to learn Swedish but what the hell, he already has a foreign name.

Heinz has to be the most well travelled Stingray ever. You realize all this travel makes him destined for some museum someday!

Heinz sounds like a high class 'escort', guys from all over the globe wanting and paying for him.

 

[oddjob]

Is Heinz's passport in order? Are his shots upto date???

 

[ashiin]

Bring him to Hong Kong! Maybe he can pick up a BFR buddy while he's at it here (The BFR we have here is really cheap too!)

Say la vee.

 

[Big Poppa]

he will be baack

 

[TSanders]

Ive gigged Heinz while he stayed with Andrew, Dr Dtankface.

That is one great sounding SR5.

Whats special about Heinz? The colour?

Can someone fill a newbie in?

 

[bovinehost]

he will be baack

No, Strummer is like the Dargie Black Hole. Like the Hotel California of Basses.

Basses can go in....but they never come out.

I can think of one that got out- wasn't it a DD? Not that I'm keeping a scorecard on forum trades or anything ...... .

Occasionally he let's one go... (Blue Dawn Bongo to England chez GreyDad??)

 

[GreyDad]

But only temporarily - checked out, but never leaving

 

[strummer]

he will be baack

No he won't.

Or, I mean, yeah maybe...

It's like the Blue Bomber, a keeper for sure unless Maddog asks to buy it back.

So if Jack asks, sure he'll get heinz back, but he won't go anywhere else. Except temporarily maybe, like the Blue Dawn or the Blue Bomber, which are both not at home at the moment.

You're right about that one, and I also sold my very first (Desert Gold) Bongo 5 HH. The thing is, HS Bongos don't do it for me, and the weird thing is I sold the Desert Gold to be able to buy the Dargie, which in retrospect was kind of a stupid move. Except for the fact that if i hadn't done that jack would've never gotten the Dargie, and I hear he likes that one just fine

Heh, that one is just on vacation, I bet you have a good navy name for 6 months of shore leave
Neil just needed a 5-string, and since I was at least partly responsible for him getting the 4 H, I figured he could borrow a low B until it was time for him to get a fiver or sixer.
The Blue Bomber is temoporarily out of house too, with a 14 yo girl who plays sax and wanted to try her hands on a bass. I like it when my basses go walkabout, the SR5 20:tn anni was played by the daughter of a friend of mine for a year, really annoyed her bass teacher lol.

 

[Colin]

I can't believe it! Heinz is gone

 

[strummer]

I can't believe it! Heinz is gone

Nooo, he's not GONE, he's just gone walkabout

 

[bassmonkeee]

OUT FOR DELIVERY

Of course, Heinz is showing up at my office on the day we're all leaving early to go to the zoo (insert own joke here). Heinz will spend the evening with the mailroom crew and security, though, so he will be safe.


And, yes--there will be some attempted Heinz photos of his time in Atlanta. But, they won't exactly be a surprise now, will they, Jack?
