  1. Sorry...I'm with @ricksterphil on this - Bass Collection build quality for £150 - can't go wrong.
  2. Isn't somebody after one of these in the Wanted ads?
  3. I've started on the tan - should be finished tomorrow. I'll make both and post photos. My feeling currently is that the white doesn't match the body tones where as the tan is in the same palette. We'll have to see.
  4. Frost and Fire - EBTG
  5. IMO Rob has already justified his right to be a member here by making me (two) pairs of pickup surrounds which greatly improve the appearance of my Fender Modern Player jazz 5er. I wish everyone was as helpful as Rob..
  6. I keep looking at the Sire P range...cos I need another bass (sic).
  7. £4.50?? I bet that there were people complaining about ticket prices at the time.
  8. Ice Ice Baby - Vanilla Ice
  9. There was one on ebay recently - didn't look in any way special. I passed on it. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/325680904165?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=aNIBP-b0SRK&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY
  10. I'm not a big fan of either in their own right, I think that they compliment each other so I'm a PJ proponent ...Best of both worlds IMO.
  11. I have a cream neck pup cover somewhere...send me the measurements of the cover you need and I'll see if it would fit. Alternatively, PM superhero @rwillett who recently printed some pup surrounds for my Fender Modern Player.
  12. I think that there is definitely a place for cream pickups especially with a maple fretboard and a cream/ peach/ natural pastel palette. Like you I had a nightmare finding a cream PJ set but the effort was worth it IMO.
  13. New complication - which colour leather to use on the scratch plate??
  14. The Chicken Song - Spitting Image
  15. Spraying it on and wiping it smooth. Extra attention to the areas around the neck and the end grain.
  16. Private Beach Party - Gregory Isaacs
  17. Seeing the title I had visions of Mr Morrison being admitted to the Psych Unit...phew!!
  18. It's worked in the past with a custom bass which was played and passed on. I believe there was a happy ending - BCers tried the bass, builder got lots of feedback and it eventually went home to the builder (what was his name!!). Good idea...lots of positive karma.
  19. IIRC Mick's two Wals are in Cyprus with his wife. Starting bid of £7k - expect it to go for significantly more.
  20. Yeah but I think most people who have had dealings would prefer it to be these two...
  21. Just ran my hand over the oiled body of the bass - feels amazing. I'm going to leave it overnight for the oil to harden before doing any more work on it.
  22. I remember this bass - I think that I posted the original thread. I still think that it is a cracking looking Bass - with the right elements I'm sure it'll be a peach. Reading the list of parts and the work you have done I expect this to be an absolute corker. Following with interest.
  23. Nice example of what is already a nice bass. You may be sorry when it sells..
  24. Vincent - Jon McLean
  25. Pictures of Lily - The Who
