    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.

    It would have to be Sandman Van to keep with the theme.

    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.
