How did you bring it back? ON the plane as carry-on or checked in luggage? Any extra charges and which airlines?

thanks!

I may want to go over to tokyo and get me a bass too.

that's a '65 reissue jazz bass (with matching headstock). probably retails for 70-80 thousand yen

i planned on shipping a washburn idol from ishibashi but exchanged rates killed the idea

Resetti: I hand carried it. I took JAL/British airways. They put it in the Business class closet for 7 hours. No extra charges.

Nisazif: Um... It's tortise shell then like WBW.

i apologise in advance because i'm just gonna post up photos of my same old setup here (and also in the megathread and fx lineup threads)

i'm doing this because i just got myself a camera tripod and i was trying it out. managed to get shots of my gear that were way better than before (hopefully)

edit: thumbnails blow, so i put up the full photos ("^_^)
