She's still as beautiful as the day she was born! georgie_boy Senior Member Username: georgie_boy Post Number: 1006 Registered: 8-2005 Posted on Friday, April 01, 2011 - 5:26 am:    Hi Graeme!! I just couldn't come up with anything good to say for a while-and to tell the truth, certain members posts became rather tedious and almost offensive so, I decided to wait until I had something sensible to say. The post about old basses certainly stirred my interest hence the posting ( I also wanted something profound to use as my 1000th post). I'm not gigging anymore---at the moment so things are quite tight. My 75 P bass is a stonker mind you!! Keep in touch G georgie_boy Senior Member Username: georgie_boy Post Number: 1007 Registered: 8-2005 Posted on Friday, April 01, 2011 - 5:28 am:    Hey Rusty! Thanks buddy---your SC is a beaut as well!!! georgie_boy Senior Member Username: georgie_boy Post Number: 1008 Registered: 8-2005 Posted on Friday, April 01, 2011 - 5:38 am:    Oh! and for those interested, my 76 Series has Abalone inlays with Silver surrounds!! I assume that this was a custom addition at the time. georgie_boy Senior Member Username: georgie_boy Post Number: 1009 Registered: 8-2005 Posted on Friday, April 01, 2011 - 5:39 am:    Happy birthday----again to your Europa Will!!!

I think I might be playing tonight.
