Mr. Green (The Bar Fly)

Last call at the Amber Corners
The music is stuck forever in
the ancient glue on the tin ceiling and
the nowhere you have to go
is the nowhere that you've always been

Your head in the horn
your feet in the drum
your heart on the slow boat
and your fingers, they
smoke by themselves

(Model 013-94) Hand-carved and hand-painted ash top on a basswood body. Small- change headstock.
Sometimes I don't know what possess me. This piece is clearly over the top. The first neck had a nice little reversed George Washington quarter. Much too modest. I used a Stew-Mac unprofiled headstock neck on the final piece. In loud we trust! Completed in '95.
Bolt-on 25 1/2 inch maple neck; ebony fingerboard. Chrome Schaller roller bridge and Gotoh tuners. Full size humbucker in bridge position, stacked single-coil in the neck position. Fully shielded.
* Sold * 11/96
