Once in a while you just need to treat yourself to something! While I never grow tired of USA Guild Pilots and early G&L basses it was time for something special. This is Joe Osborn #001, personally owned & hand-signed by Joe himself. It didn't come cheap and I'll be honest, it's not leaving my house for a very, very long time. The bass exudes magic and I told my wife what a relative bargain it was compared to a real 1960 Fender Jazz Bass. While she wasn't thrilled (the house needs a new roof) at least she understood where I was coming from. I'll have to make up the roof money from somewhere, just not here!
