It's me again! :joy:

I've got another VM VI and the Musima got new pickups:

I'd like to get another VI type at one point to put flats on. Maybe a Dano Baritone Dead On 67 or something like that. I like them quirky.

I haven't got a decent picture at the moment, but I will take one if you'd like to see mine specifically.

It looks like this.

I keep thinking about this CME exclusive Squier Classic Vibe in lake placid blue with matching headstock.

running Ernie Ball cobalt flats for the lows and rounds for the 2 high strings

Interesting idea mixing rounds and flats! I never managed to get my Squier to a point where it really played well. Flats were best for the lows but then the highs felt wrong for "guitar-like" playing. Maybe that's the genius solution! :!!!:

Wow, i love these. The V and the Firebird are wild!

I was thinking a lot about a fretless Bass VI lately. Has anyone tried it here? Opinions?
