Working on a '66 P-Bass for Harvey Arnold, formerly of The Outlaws. This one served in the early days as his main recording and touring bass until he got his black left-handed P-Bass. In the '80s this bass rattled the back dash in my '73 Camaro, so it was a special treat to get to care for it years later.
