Jeff - I sold number 49 a year or so ago. I sold it to a guy in England, who didn't like it and sold it right away to a friend of his. I have toyed with the idea of parting with #47, but I keep changing my mind. My thoughts were that if I don't really use them, why keep them. But I have had #47 for so long now, it would be strange not having it around.

I think that Rick probably worked on those basses back then. That was when he still worked there. Makes sense to me anyway.

I moved the thread over to this folder, since this is definitely not a California Special guitar; although it is a 'special californian' so to speak.
I figured this was a more appropriate place for it.

Val:

Thanks. . sometimes we get off-topic or go off on tangents! Michael: HOLD ON TO #47. . .that's all I can say. You know in your heart-of-hearts our Small Standards are very special. . .and if you ever DO feel like you absolutely NEED to part with it, let me know first, o.k.? I would defintely be interested in having such a close relative of my bass living here in the house with it(-;

But don't sell it. . .you know you don't want to. .

Jeff

p.s. And believe me. . it would get played(-; I would use her as my gigging bass.

To me it looks like it might be a Becvar.
