TL's Burn Victim

[drewbixcubed]

I can't take credit for the pics, but I found these (thanks Dude) and put them together in this thread for all to view! What a travesty!!!!!

A number of his basses got burnt -- I think the bass Tony's holding was his silver sparkle with the interchageable fingerboards -- you can see the fingerboard is separated from the neck....

Well, damn! I thought I was onto something....oh well, I guess I need to research a little more next time!! Thanks for the info vonfog-

sorry to sidetrack but BP, was that a "nova' board Ray at the open house? it had the interchangable fingerboards but I was too chicken to take it out of the guitar rack
.... was still reeling from playing #26 and the first production SR5, which, BTW, if it ever needs a different house to live under for a while

 

[Big Poppa]

yes that was a nova board prototype....just think what it would soundlike with an aggie!

ok, ok...... har dee har har.....
yes, I had my fun with my one and only fretted Bongo BUT that doesn't mean I don't have plans for getting other fretted MMs and NOT butchering them. besides, most of my students have 4 strings so I've been wanting to get one myself for ease of teaching them and the thought of a single H Bongo 4....maybe in mahogany, sounds interesting. I wanted to make the jump back to the Sterling/Sting Ray design and the SR5 w/Rosewood neck at the open house is one of the finest on the planet but I'm still stuck with furthering the Bongo up here in the great white north eh!

so yes Big Poppa.. I do solemnly swear to try my hardest not to draw anymore mustaches on pretty ladies (except for maybe an occaisonal active/passive switch)

Thanks BP, I thought since the one in Tony's picture has 4 tuners and 4 knobs that it was the novatone one.

How about an SX jazz copy with a J-Retro preamp, Lindy Fralin pickups, BadAss bridge, D-tuner, Moses graphite neck and an active/passive switch ?
