It's certainly functional and serves its purpose well, so I wouldn't say its ugly.
Now, if they could have only worked out how to incorporate a similar ring for a neck pickup at the same time....

Found a terrible pic of the banana bass I rescued. Looks different again in terms of setup to the previous pics - but it did come to me as parts in a box.

Saw this at cashies yesterday. Would make a neat prop in a panel van show car.

you'd sell that to some tiki bar in Melbourne or Sydney for $500.
My local music shop has a surfboard lappy that looks like the twin of that one
It would have to be Sandman Van to keep with the theme.Quote:

Not bad. Sadly I was old enough to remember these when they came out but still a few years off legal driving age. That golf club head gear shift knob was way ahead of it's time.
Eventually I bought a Ford XA 500 Van (plain jane, not surfer cool) with 302 ci and 4 speed manual box. Went way too fast and had at least 2 very, very scary moments where I look back and consider myself lucky to be alive.
For a while I had a Regal Sedan for a work car, went like a rocket in a straight line but didn't steer or stop
I grew up restoring European cars with my Dad, I stumbled on my first val in the mid 90s and have had one in some form or another ever since. Currently entering the home stretch on a VJ regal build. Starting to think guitars are are more practical thing to mod and restore, so it might be my last one for a while.
Hey Sonic sounds cool. I've been to many Chrysler shows in Perth. Can you please post a pic of your VJ
