[Heeplist] Gary Thain

[Don Malecic]

Hey guys
I missed this conversation about Gary's bass , went to my spam .
Anyway, here is a pic of one of Gary's workhorse guitars , which is a jazz
, but still trying to nail down the vintage year .
I recall Mika was on for a bit, I don't think anyone insulted her , like
Bob said , was a language barrier issue .
Too bad though, we should try to lure her back on again , I'm sure everyone
has tons of questions.
