I could go for a white body .... Then with the black hardware it could be my salute to my favourite AFL team ...lol
But I think Black would look meaner, more vicious...

Black & White AFL team??? Magpies perhaps?
Bouldercombe is a long way from any major AFL heartland but seems to be quite popular in CQ & FNQ regional centres.
when in doubt, black is always there for you.
NRL Cowboys since they started & AFL Magpies since I was a 3yo kid ..... What else is there ? ...
Reminds me of this song.....

Yeah Waz, And game gossip hasn't changed tone much since then. Went to a few Pies games as a young teen, Vs Nth Melb and Vs Tigers, and Vs the Cats and the Doggies...Hardest part was during the '70's none of the family wanted to see "those damn Pies games" so I had to devise other means to make the journey into and back from the city from Melton.
Everyone in my extended family in Victoria supports the Bull Dogs (Footscray) (many are fully subscribed members) and that was mostly only initially due to our families historic heritage ties with the colours of Red White and Blue and that nil VFL team of the time used straight Orange... Like one other cousin I just had to be different and support another team, that one cousin supports the Cats.. ,
With the NRL, during the Cowboys first year and as a promotion a couple of the guys came to the primary school that my kids were attending.... We met and chatted, the kids were all excited over NRL and the Cowboys, they gave us a signed ball and a men's wallet in Cowboys team colours, so we became supporters....and stuck with them... Still have the wallet and the ball.
As has always been the case I'm not allowed to watch the game of a team I'm (in my heart) supporting. No matter if it's AFL, NRL or State of Origin, If I do watch (live or TV) then it is guaranteed they'll loose that game... I do get to miss some Epics!!
Well to drag it back to the topic....
I watched the first 2 auctions through to the final countdown.
Was expecting the usual flurry of price hikes in the last few seconds as various snipe programs try to outbid each other.
It never came and the final price stood for many minutes.
There is hope for me on ebay yet.
cheers, Mark.
Did see some auto bidding on the SG Bass that pushed the price up.
So, a PBG box turned up yesterday. I thought "it's only a bass, I'll look at it tomorrow…". I was expecting what was listed on the web page (after Adam used his usual mind tricks to get me to buy another kit): a SGB-30 basswood body, 30.5" scale, 20 fret short scale bass.
What was in the box was a little unexpected.
hmm… that looks a little dark for basswood.

Make that a one piece mahogany body! Yep, one piece.

And, let's make that 22 frets instead of 20. The scale measures in at 761mm, so 30" rather than the 30.5" listed.
