Bought this off one of the Bass Discussion boards awhile back.

Sounds like it should through my post-1967 Ampeg Portaflex.

Strung with DR Flatwounds.

Tempted to get a pearlloid pickguard.

Do you think G&L uses the Dodge "Plum Crazy" metallic auto paint for the old "Purple Sparkle" and the new "Royal Purple" finishes?

Beauty! Congrats!

Not sure about the exact color, but G&L have recently introduced a Detroit muscle car SS collection-- maybe this is one of the new finishes?

I wouldn't change a thing-- it's perfect just the way it is :mrgreen:
