  1. [quote name='Maude' timestamp='1440544348' post='2851876'] I've just ordered the Lh Jazz. Just want the neck for a project so the body could be up for grabs, maybe. [/quote] I was wondering about that. Are you left-handed, or going for a reverse headstock?
  2. That shouldn't be here for long
  3. This, I think, is not a Westone bass: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Westone-Custom-Bass-Guitar-/191671824392?hash=item2ca087f008 I am pretty sure it's a bitsa, with horrible hacking under that plastic plate where the bridge has been moved to get the intonation.
  4. Possibly a bit ambitious?
  5. I can't sing at all any more. I've sung harmony for as long as I can remember - I find it difficult to sing a melody. I've never been able to sing and play together though. Recently my bandmates have pushed me to sing lead on a couple of songs (knowing they'd have to do without the bass), because I have the best voice of the three of us. Net result, I can't sing either.
  6. hmm. How wide is the nut? Thanks
  7. [quote name='Aero71' timestamp='1440446214' post='2850857'] PM'd [/quote] Thank goodness for that...
  8. [quote name='Rumple' timestamp='1440407053' post='2850314'] I guess it is a bit 'bling' but I like it. [/quote] Looks like nice work to me. I think you've every right to be pleased. I'd be bl**dy ecstatic if something I'd done came out that well
  9. I know the name and that's all. I'll explore - thanks to the OP
  10. [quote name='DaveFry' timestamp='1440448190' post='2850894'] Shall I take it to the bridge ? [/quote] The bridge! Where is it?!
  11. [quote name='TheRev' timestamp='1440363690' post='2850167'] I have an Italia Rimini - it has a modern yet 60s sound and styling. I don't play electric bass musch thes days,but when I do, that's the one I pick up, Here: [url="http://www.jhs.co.uk/italia.html"]http://www.jhs.co.uk/italia.html [/url] scroll down tot he bottom of the page. [/quote] What's the neck like on these? I had a Mondial which I'd have kept if the neck had been slimmer.
  12. [quote name='alyctes' timestamp='1438454917' post='2834666'] Something semi-acoustic. Possibly fretless. (I'd love philw's defretted BEX 4 but I really cannot find the cash...) [/quote] Currently GASsing for money. If you have any, let me know
  13. I think I might just put it in a skip. Seems a shame, but I can't believe it's overpriced and I haven't got the space.
  14. Will you still love me tomorrow?
  15. [quote name='BigRedX' timestamp='1440323325' post='2849769'] Make that three - unless one of you owns the one I used to have. [/quote] Indeed. Thanks for the info - I've not picked either one up for quite a while.
  16. I assumed it would be 42mm nut, given the single P pup of the "classic" Blazer.
  17. Indeed. I have a Duke and an Alien, and both have aluminium necks. (Which I suppose proves only that [u]one[/u] Alien has an aluminium neck... - if I find time I'll dig it out and see if the neck is marked in some way, it's possible that the Alien neck has been replaced with a Duke neck )
  18. Quite pretty, though it's a bit elaborate for my taste. Also, I am a bit suspicious of that lower horn. I reckon that might be uncomfortable to play sitting.
  19. [quote name='ahpook' timestamp='1440256544' post='2849405'] I've always been put off by the tales of chunky necks [/quote] Me too. Also, I will never buy any item with "[size=3]SWEEET! LOOOOOOK![/size]" in its title.
  20. [quote name='Grangur' timestamp='1440218624' post='2849154'] That's fine. Nobody is saying he's a rogue. He may be misguided or mistaken. Or he may know something we don't. [/quote] I just meant he ought to be easy to get hold of if you wanted to ask.
  21. [quote name='Bassassin' timestamp='1440193433' post='2849073'] Could be, but I don't think it's an Aria, despite the "ghost" logo - or if it is, it's a bitsa of some sort. J. [/quote] Seller is a member here

    Amazon

    Not used them, but I have used Status Hotwires bought direct and that worked well.
  23. Wouldn't it be nice / To get on with me neighbours?
