I wish I could fly - Orville

Which one’s your mum?

That definitely needs a gloss finish, then it will look reasonable period correct. That graining is excellent but it needs a really smooth finish to complement it. When I had a lower model Roadstar fretless which originally came black gloss,I stripped it and finished it in a natural using boiled linseed it looked great even though it was only a sort of plywood body.

I suspect it worked better than the later little bit of wire grounding strip. When I ha one (a ‘96) the hum under some lights was terrible, leading me to believe the earth strip didn’t work very well.

I’m surprised the strap broke, mine seems pretty tough, but I guess I only carry out to the car and then into the venue.

Outside looking in - Jordan Pruitt

Go now - Moody Blues

Drive - The Cars (whoops didn’t notice this came up a few entries ago)

Is t that unusual to have 2 colour sunburst in the 70’s? I had a tri-colour. Or is it just that the red has faded?

Crawling king snake - Big Joe Williams (I think I’ve suggested this before!)

Genuinely awful. Looks like a rummage in the parts bin.

Is this the first winter you’ve had this bass? Given that Ibanez have pretty thin necks, you may need to tweak the truss with the season.

Please, please me - Fab 4

They should have been called Tower of Hair!

I feel free - Cream

Meet on the ledge - Fairport Convention

I applaud Chowney’s decision and he is right to say one step at a time. As regards woods, Robert Godin may have lead the way, on some of his acoustics, particularly the Simon & Patrick brand he used local woods including cherry wood. If Fender can use Pine, why not? We have plenty of pine in the U.K. and some other fruit woods may be as good as cherry.

May Peerless came with a hard case but it fits the RokSak gig bag. Just check the lower bout width.

I’m a believer - The Monkees

Beautiful looking except for the headstock 👎

I know they didn’t make one back in the day, but it really looks like it’s straight out of the 60’s, super cool.
