[Grand Wazoo]

good choice,i started getting gas for a big al around christmas but right now i am very happy !!

Thanks Dave, we must be some of the very few people with these 25th Annivesary basses in UK & Ireland.

However you are one lucky son-of-a-gaelic because you've got the boss to make that happen for you. So f//////// lucky!

I still cant believe its mine,i keep looking at it and it has not going sunk in yet.BP is 2 mega star

black with tort PG or burst with black PG.
Seeing as the Big Als are Mahogany I wish they offered a trans red for the Big AL. Trans red with a black PG, I love how that combo looks on a bass/guitar.

If wishes were fishes we'd all go down to Petco and buy some Desert Gold(fish).



Note the Bongoesque shape...

Lord, sometimes I crack myself up. And I'm sure I'm the only one.

matching heastock is ok on a rosewood board but in my views on a maple board it spoils the look of the natual white wood. And that is to me at least. Each has their own preference.

Now I can't get the thought of a Desert Gold Big Al SSS with black pickguard out of my head...

The proof! - the wait begins

When I got home tonight I have found an envelope in the mail box containing the receipt for the deposit paid to the store where I have ordered my Big Al 5 SSS.

For the time being, this piece of paper represents the beginning of a long journey...

Intially was against the "Black" since I have a few black colored basses. I picked the "Candy Red with white pg / maple board". But afyer seeing the pic in black w/ the tort-shell pickguard that looks sweet. I am also a sucker for maple fretboards.

YOU SIR ARE THE WINNER

PM me your full name and address, and I will post this vintage sticker to you.

Candy Apple Red / plain white pickguard / Maple Fingerboard / non matching headstock.​

The bad news is that the shop I have ordered it with has been told the following:

"The order time will be around 20 weeks approx."​

That's 5 months. Guess what? I have no rush whatsoever. There's a 25th, a Bongo, a Stingray that'll keep me busy in the meantime.

I received the decal and what a cool one it is! I really am blown away by the 25th you sent with it. You are the best Grand Wazoo!

 

[Grand Wazoo]

I am glad you liked it and I am also glad the alucinogen drugs which I sent with it worked too

 

[five7]

oh yeah
