After doing battle with the old confuser (me not like new fangled 'chine's) I have managed to attach a couple of images, one of my black double hum (which now has a mirror plate!) and my Red Ray with Status Graphite neck.


Apologes if this is not the right place to post, but having just managed to attach the images in the first place I am all done out on new 'fusering, so any mod please move, edit as required.

Best Regards,

Hey Lynottfan. Nice bass!

Nothing to do with MM but, as a Lynott fan and MM owner myself, you might appreciate this one. I traded for it, straight up, in 1980 for my '77 Precision when Phil went with Ibanez. Great move on my part(!). Needs the mirror PG....:eek::

Yeah Brother- I'm a Fan!

I have a couple of Thin Lizzy tattoos and a mirrored SR as well.

Nice Bass- I can't believe Fender still hasn't created a signature model for the man.

Wow. That is one sweet Ray. Looks great with the mirror guard. I'll be in the market for a 5 string version of the same thing next year. And I totally agree - where's the Lynott Signature Precision?

I first saw saw Lizzy back in the '70's growing up in London - wonder what Phil would have come up with with 25% more wire....:)?

Thanks NJ.

Yeah, unfortunately I didn't become a fan until about 5 years after his death. Some guys in an Army band needed a bass player....made me buy one....then I learned "Hollywood" as my very first song on bass.

You're so lucky to have seen them. I'd love to get over to Ireland for one of the Vibe for Philo events.
