I found a Bose Wave radio at a yard sale for $2. It only needed some xmfr wiring re-soldered.

Garage sale about twenty-five years ago.

Shoebox labeled "son's miscellaneous guitar parts".

Contents: complete wiring harness for a Gibson SG, with two genuine PAF humbuckers from the early '60s.

Price: $8.00 (!!!)

HE SHOOTS, HE SCORES!

:mrgreen:

Arjay (nothin' but net that day)

Thanks, Mike.

It sorta makes up for the pair of vintage 16-inch tilt-back legs I removed from a '64 Bassman cab back in '68 and had stashed at my folks' home. I went off to the service and when I came home on leave I learned my mom had thrown them out since neither she nor my Dad could figure out what they were!

:cry:
