Lovely, lovely little fretless here, made by Vintage, however I cant find any model number info anywhere on the bass, if you know let me know (mystery solved - its a V940)
Active circuitry, fitted with some unknown black flatwounds, it plays incredibly well. Knobs are master vol, pick up select, and bass and treble active pots, giving this a fairly broad tonal palette.
Condition wise, very very good, I cant find any dings on it. The main body wood is some sort of bubinga/wenge type, with an open grain, but not as deep as wenge so I don't think its that. Weight is 4.2kg according to my bathroom scales.In summary, a really nice bass. Only reason this is being let go is I have too many fretlii as it is. Collection much preferred, although I do get around the country a bit with my various works, so could possibly bring somewhere near to you.

In short, the guy digs around the various bootlegs and rarities to re-create albums that never were, or nearly were, or how they could have been. If I've understood correctly, this hypothetical reconstruction of Sheep is supposed to recreate how Nirvana's second album might have sounded if they'd stayed on Sub Pop. (Plus all the background info makes for interesting reading!)
That is awesome, thnaks for sharing that

Not quite the same vein, but I remember the music press at the time really hyping the heck out of the forthcoming debut album by The Sundays, really spreading it on thick they were. So I bought it on the day it came out and couldn't have been more underwhelmed

No one seems to have much to say about the debuts from PJ Harvey, Amy Winehouse and Nirvana. Have to admit I've never listened to any of them! But very very happy with the three follow ups.
Hmm, Dont know about the first two but Bleach was a classic, eclipsing Nirvanas later work IMO. i guess this is another one f them subjective threads

Supports the theory that everyone should be given a chance tho

^^ ooh look at that, Nick just sold me the very same Overwater Perception in yet another hassle free transaction.
May I recommend Nick for all your Overwater Perception needs? He seems pretty good at them

Another vote for the Ibanez here, the necks are sublime ( As long as you like a slim fast neck of course lol)

I tried a diff lyric site to that which Bertbass did and found
20th Century Blues
Why is it that civilized humanity
Can make the world so wrong?
In this hurly-burly of insanity
Our dreams cannot last long.We've reached a deadline,
A press headline, Every sorrow.
Blues value is news value
Tomorrow.Blues
Twentieth century blues
Are getting me down.
Blues
Escape those weary
Twentieth century blues.Why,
If there's a God in the sky,
Why shouldn't He grin
High
Above this dreary
Twentieth century din?In this strange illusion,
Chaos and confusion,
People seem to lose their way.
What is there to strive for,
Love or keep alive for,
Say, 'Hey, hey!'
Call it a day?Blues
Nothing to win or to lose,…;)- 1
