The actor or the periodontist?

Pro Tone production was only from '96 to '98 so somewhere in there. I have a ('96) Pro Tone 5 string P-bass. It's fantastic.

Not able to post a Starfire pic at the moment. Value in "mint" condition with HSC?

Any thoughts on these?

Nice but that's Daryl Hall. John is the Oates in H&O... :) Great colour!

I like Vintage Guitar and Premier Guitar. Cheap cover price and no tabs/charts which are wasted on moi

Does that top cross brace work as a footrest?

I'd go with the VM Jag. Lots more tonal flexibility with the split P and J single-coils. Looks way cooler too IMO. I normally play standard scale, but I do have a Gretsch Junior Jet II in my stable which is pretty fun - that might be a SS contender as well.

Banjo-caster!

Concur - these are awesome. I have 2 acoustics, 2 electrics and 4 basses racked on mine at present.

Agree. I have a Protone V bass, a buddy with a P/T Tele and another with a P/T Strat. Great instruments. Just my $0.02. Not familiar with the Silver Series.

Me too and still have it (my Protone V). It's a helluva 5-banger.
