So this may be insignificant, but I though it was cool. The Heffernens are at a wedding and the bass player for the "wedding singer" is wearing a Europa with gold hardware. First time I've seen one in a sit-com :-)

Xtra Cool, must have "really" been a bass player.

That's what I was thinking, no way a set designer came up with that!

It might be that one of the show's head honchos is a bass player or has a friend who's a bassist. Then, by usung the Alembic on the show it becomes a business expense and thus a tax write-off!

If anyone watches Arliss when it turns up intermittently on HBO (a VERY funny series about a sports agent), you might notice that in each episode the Kirby Carlyle character has a different guitar in his office. I've never seen him play it, or seen it have any significance in an episode, yet it is always there. One week a Les Paul, the next a Tele, than an SG, etc. Each can then be claimd as a business expense and written off. Someone has quite a collection.

Bill, tgo
