    Thanks. I too steer clear if there are chips, but that;s partly because any mechanical strength the body has is in the surface... yeah. I bought an Ibanez EDA905 once. That long lower horn... it went back. I don't know if the seller got his money back from the courier.

    Hm. Do I remember that these are luthite-bodied? Will acetone do interesting things to that?

    The interesting thing about all this is the seller is now going "oooh, look at all the interest I'm getting from the UK! I better push the price up on the next one!"...

    That first pic had me worried for a bit... looked like someone's arm, with the wrist disappearing out of shot to the left...

    A couple of weeks ago I went to the Fruits De Mer label's 10th anniversary gig in Glastonbury. Seven bands plus a goody bag for £25,; five of the bands were good and two average. Score

    Thanks I've been wanting something to do that with for a while; real DB are just too big - my dad played DB; and the first thing he asked about any car he drove was "Can I fit the bass in it?". And he had a much bigger house than I'm ever going to have. I guess I could try a viola with an octave pedal, but I'm still hankering after something with a sensible fundamental note - partly because certain guitarists think anyone can play bass, and I don't want to give them ideas...

    Can't compete visually with the SRF, for me.

    +1. In fact, +lots. Painful and causes great hilarity among your bandmates.

    Damn it, I need to stay out of these threads... that's just fantastic. I really like the sort of mandolin-ish look of the darker one.

    That's awesome 😍 Is it small enough to play on your arm, like a folk fiddle-player?

    I had a fretted one. I should have kept it, it punched well above its weight. GLWTS!

    I seem to recall that that headstock makes it a Vantage. If so, is it a bitsa, or is it a P knockoff? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Bass-Guitar-Project-Four-String/192566210234?hash=item2cd5d72eba:g:yS8AAOSwrQxbH5tJ

    Jose bought it back from me Still a pleasure to deal with, and very tolerant of my dawdling. Enjoy Edit: Also he's a better player than me. Bah, humbug

    I bought Josh's TRB II, and very nice it is. He drove a long way to deliver it, and is a nice guy. Recommended.

    It's the bloomin' ease you do it with which really offends...
