PhotoHunt Theme: Chipped

"CHIPPED" is the theme this week.
R's red bass is an old Fender Musicmaster that he bought used in 1972 or 1973. It has been well used, so it was occasionally CHIPPED, but it can still sing a pretty song.

This is where the bass is kept on it's stand and not surprisingly, I had a picture of Willow near the bass. She doesn't care that it's CHIPPED.The red bass is CHIPPED here on the right side... CHIPPED here near the mid-bottom...CHIPPED here behind the strings... and CHIPPED here at the bottom.It's CHIPPED indeed!
Luckily that doesn't affect the sound!
Here is a picture that I took in September of 2007 in our backyard. If you look closely, you can see that the red bass was already CHIPPED in those four places back then. The black guitar is an American-made Fender Stratocaster that R bought new in 1976 and it is still unCHIPPED!

UPDATE: There was a comment wondering about the two guitars looking different. R is left-handed. The red bass is for a right-handed player however R has the strings set up as left-handed. When he bought the black guitar he had it custom-made to be left-handed.
As always, you can find more of Tnchick's Photohunters here!
