  1. Moved jobs since then, but yeah, collection would be a snip. Ah well. Sorry
  2. Nice! If I didn't have a BEX-4 I'd be after this. I do like that white lining in the F-holes, very elegant
  3. Lovely :) Thanks!
  4. Erm, "no income" is not a first-world problem! Good luck with your sale!
  5. Bloody hell. From bitter experience, I know that cracking in the hard outer shell of the luthite body acts as a weakness and makes the lower horn very fragile. And the upper horn too, I have no doubt. Avoid like the plague.
  6. Saw that. Not pretty, is it.
  7. Somebody demoing a Vox Standard. YouTube video. A pro, way better than I'll ever be.
  8. No bids. Worth keeping an eye on.
  9. Social distancing by having a bloody great cab next to you. A system we can all applaud
  10. I think that's more mauve than lavender? Purple, anyway. (Disclaimer: I have no idea what Sandberg calls that colour )
  11. The unexpected revival of this thread has caught me flat-footed. I suppose that means I'm not instep with the Basschat massive.
  12. Simple and elegant. Very nice
  13. Good to know. Thanks
  14. How wide is the neck?
  15. I'm really glad these are nice and good value, having told a colleague that his son wasn't asking for something rubbishy for Christmas...
  16. No Rick, no Tbird, nothing with PP pickups, only one fretless... plenty of space to expand
  17. It's nice to see the community putting their sole into this sort of thing.
  18. Presumably it is stable. But the modder didn't know that at the time
  19. Agree. I have a Kramer Duke, which is quite capable of maiming your drummer if not handled carefully. And that's not even pointed.
  20. I wouldn't want to drill the neck like that, myself; four holes across the top of the neck, positioned just right for a crack to propagate, and with the four original strings putting tension on the area. Trouble waiting to happen.
  21. Tres Chicas, 'Bloom, Red and the Ordinary Girl'. Pleasant enough if you like that sort of thing, but one of them is Tonya Lamm ex Hazeldine, so I was hoping for something more.
  22. I suspect it's a Hohner, but I can't really pin down why I think that.
  23. ... plus the cost of the forklift. No, not me.
  24. In case of confusion, here;'s John's other feedback thread:
