I became the third (at least) British owner of the 86 Spoiler showm below. Regulars will have seen this bass a few times before, my ultimate aim is to get together some photos that really do this bass justice. This place looks like a splendid resource, looking forward to discussing stuff with you artswork99 Moderator Username: artswork99 Post Number: 1262 Registered: 7-2007 Posted on Friday, August 20, 2010 - 5:13 am:    Great looking bass John!

Maybe one day I will get to see and hear one live at a gig here in the UK.

Good to see another British player. If you're ever up in Scotland let me know so we can meet up for a drink. (that's an open invitation to everyone in the club).

Unusual grain pattern on that top; very nice! deaver New Username: deaver Post Number: 2 Registered: 4-2010 Posted on Monday, September 20, 2010 - 10:18 am:    Cheers everyone, Graeme I get up to Scotland usually once a year (wife's family are in Perth) so that drink might be on. I've attached a photo from under the truss cover, I wondered if the initials are significant? mario_farufyno Senior Member Username: mario_farufyno Post Number: 538 Registered: 9-2008 Posted on Monday, September 20, 2010 - 12:53 pm:    Be welcome, Deaver! davehouck Moderator Username: davehouck Post Number: 9621 Registered: 5-2002 Posted on Monday, September 20, 2010 - 1:07 pm:    John; the initials are most probably the initials of the person that carved the body. davehouck Moderator Username: davehouck Post Number: 9687 Registered: 5-2002 Posted on Monday, October 04, 2010 - 8:08 am:    [moderator's note: a spam message was removed from this thread] (Message edited by davehouck on October 05, 2010)
