My uncle brought my mom this Hofner Violin Bass. He purchased it brand new and gave it to my mom after it being in his collection for many years now. It is still in near mint condition, it is really neat to hold.

He is going to try to get it signed by Paul McCartney for her, as, well, she would probably blow a gasket if that happened. He works as a musician and could actually make the connection with some of his former employers, which would be amazing.

Anyone ever framed a guitar before? She wants to get some sort of shadowbox or special case to put it on display.

Patrick,

He was visiting for Thanksgiving and brought it with him to give to her.

As far as framing, she has a small "Paul McCartney Tribute" wall at their place. She wants to get some sort of display case or shadowbox for it to have it on display as she and my dad are not musically talented in that fashion.



And Jonhope, thanks for that link! I think my mom might actually go for one of those, very much appreciated!
