I'm lovin my Falcon. It's surprisingly huge! I'm used to a low slung guitar, and I bought a strap that I thought was long enough, but it's still too high.

Mine is a cheap ass Fender bass vi rip off, but it HAS put my better four stringed instruments on retirement. A real nice tic tac bass sound and the mini humbuggers KILL with fuzz.

Just found a cood one, I guess, the quality control is something from uneven to absolutely horrible from what I can tell after trying three of these out through the past years.

Always wanted a Gretsch Corvette. They look sooooo nice. I would do so many unspeakable things

heh, optimally, I'd want also to replace the pickguard with a crome one and have metal studs round the body instead of the binding.
