I go this about 11:30 last night... it's off a 20-year-old album. I have the freedom to be creative but will start by learning the original, now in a minute... -
I think this bit is the end of a boutique bass:

Welcome Dan, If you like shorties, you could do a LOT worse than check fellow member @Jabba_the_gut's Build Diaries. Here's one he did earlier - He has made a few very interesting instruments if you browse through the Diaries' sub-forum.

Is this the end for the boutique bass?
Mykesbass replied to bassplayer76's topic in General Discussion
Before realising this was an E.J. Tribb (17.5) masterpiece I thought it was a long lost verse of What a Waste. P.s. how do I get a 1/2 on my phone keypad? 😟 -

spencer.b replied to bassplayer76's topic in General Discussion
Second hand prices do seem very low , that ACG on here seems crazy cheap to me but I guess they've never held their value like fenders etc Why do you think they're dead OP , I'd actually say people are a bit more open minded about them now than 20 years ago when they seemed particularly out of fashion -

Lovely bass tone, there. Fab stuff
-
there's only 4 songs on that list that I haven't played but whether I could get away with them now............... The Wham! song has a great bassline but I've only ever sung it, so have no idea how to play it

Boutique basses…..? Eights and aces…..? Losing money at the races…..? Big suitcases…..? Long shoelaces…..? Presidents with orange faces…..? E.J. Thribb (17½)

Made in Italy combo 500w into 4ohms so about 300w through the combo itself. This is my backup amp but I don’t need anything more this powerful and I could use the space and money. I’m its third owner and I’ve used it on around 20 gigs and never got the master above about 9 o’clock. Previous owner said he only gigged a few times at low volume and its first owner only used it for a few church gigs so it’s had a pretty easy life. Full specs here, although it’s the current version which may not be exactly the same. But looks identical to me. https://www.markbass.it/product/cmd-102p/ £475 delivered to the UK, but would prefer collection or meet up in or around Hertfordshire or Essex. Obviously would cost a little less if no couriers are involved.

I've just had a reply to my email to Thomann, they are sending me the missing item so it is getting sorted. I wonder whether their picking system is at fault somehow resulting in small items going into the wrong box? A few orders ago I found a pack of six harley benton pleckies I hadn't ordered with my stuff — presumably someone else was missing these.

Not any more sadly. Don’t dabble with this wood. Cheap for a reason

As I seem to be the only one who is willing to do anything I end up having a major say in most things. -

chris_b replied to bassplayer76's topic in General Discussion
I would suggest they are 99% production line basses, as are all other non-boutique basses.
