Green Basses Don't Sell, And Yet...

Did he buy the M&M green Cutlass? That is one cool-looking bass.

I couldn't risk saying "the one that got away" in reference to a one of a kind bass. Plus I needed to commemorate becoming Dr. Wim, so the timing was perfect.

At some point I'll have the whole collection assembled. I still want a fretless and a Big Al, but the green ones will show up at some point (I hope). I probably should have pulled the trigger on the fretless Dargie, but it was just outside of my price point...
 
Most definitely not. Never have too many basses, it’s just the green balance has to be balanced out (I’m sure it’s a thing, green balance :p) (and if it’s not it should be) maybe ?!?!?
Balance has never been a strong suit for me.

Excellent, I think that was the right call. To paraphrase Nigel Tufnel, its like, how much more green could it be? And the answer's none.

Post pics when you get it, please. And congrats again on the doctorate!

Thanks, pictures will be delayed somewhat, I'm going to pick it up when I'm out in TX later this summer.

The good news keeps rolling too, picked up two more classes teaching peace and conflict. Having a really good start to summer.
 
Green?
