First Post - NewOldBassDay

Hello Everyone! Just wanted to drop in and introduce myself! I own a small guitar shop in Louisiana and we just became a PRS dealer! Exciting times to be one I believe, the guitars I'm seeing coming out of Stevensville are mind blowing!

I also wanted to show off my latest "personal" PRS purchase (besides the guitars on my showroom wall). I found this vintage piece a few weeks ago on a visit to ATL to see Jeff Beck (Rhonda Smith killed it on her white GG4).

Check it out ... with a showroom peak in the background.

Old school 86' Bass looking real good. I dig the two guitars above it on the right. Would that be a DGT and 408 Goldtop !?

Yes sir it is! Good eye on the Gold Top, that one is my personal favorite!

And I forgot. Welcome to the forum. There's a lot of great folks here. Is that a Brazillian fretboard on that Bass? If so, what a slab of Braz that is!

Welcome! Its so clean - that board looks like it's had some amazing lines walked accross it for years. Let us know what you think.

Welcome to the forum!

...And that bass looks amazing. I don't even play bass and I want one!

Thanks Guys! The bass is great! Besides a small mark on the underside and the headstock points its perfect! It needed a little electronics work when it arrived but its kicking now. This thing was far ahead of its time in '86! ... first gig on it will be this weekend, I'll report back then!
