So I sent the UK seller details of the Etsy ad. Here's his response... New message from: jackalbob (630) Hello again.... what the ??? He's obviously knicked my photo's off ebay and listed it himself... never known anything like this before !!!! I'll have to see about reporting this individual to etsy and see what they say. He can't possibly make a sale because he doesn't have the bass... idiot. Thanks for the heads up anyway. Richard.

No response from @BigBoaras to whether he is Bilbo's brother. https://www.basschat.co.uk/topic/476498-new-bass-guitar/

I sent him a message thru FB.

Led Zeppelin's cover of Spirit's track "Taurus".

Optical illusion or is that a small body? Review for the Lusithand preamp please.

It's not his chair (Etsy) and it isn't for sale anyway.

You may even recognise the seller.. New message from: jackalbob (630) Hello Mick. Thanks for your message. This headless Bass was built by Rob and is a one off. He did make some other electric basses for Dave Pegg (Fairport Convention) . They had necks with traditional head stocks and machine heads. This is the only "steinberger" type he made. Absolutely yes, I confirm Rob gave me all the details/ info prior to me listing it for him. He's not internet/computer capable, so he asked me if I would offer these instruments for sale on his behalf. I have known him as a friend for almost 50 years, have been his photographer for the last 12 years (all the photo's of his instruments currently listed on ebay were taken by myself.) He lives across the road and I see him 3 times a week. I hope this answers your query, any other info, please ask. Regards. Richard.

https://www.boss.info/us/products/syb-5/ I could ask the same about my Zoom B2. TBH most of the sounds I use I found by chance.

Unsurprisingly... January - Pilot

I messaged him Hello Bob Can you give me a bit more info on this please. Is it a unique, one off owned and built by Rob Armstrong? Can you confirm that he gave you the information directly? JOOI How do you know Rob? Look forward to hearing from you. Mick I'll keep you all apprised.

I quite like it - see much worse disasters here.

inbreeding...inbreeding...!!! How dare you...there's no inbreeding here!!

See stuff like this all the time on auction sites but never sure which are OK and which are true crap. Hope yours is the former.

If I was going to pay CS money then I really would insist on my custom choices. This would mean Jazz profile thru neck 5er (they've done this before), with brass nut, ebony fretboard, 24 fret with active Lusithand preamp and SimS pickups. Alternatively either a PJ or HP pickup configuration. Jazz body in green - probably British Racing green - with chambered body to reduce weight. Headless would be lovely but I expect that this would be one step too far for Fender. Aged brass hardware. Not very Fenderish really - I could probably get something along these lines from Overwater/ ACG/ Shuker for significantly less, buy everybody who was involved a bottle of Scotch each and still be in front.

English Rose - The Jam/ Paul Weller

I bought some parts from Guitar Anatomy, thru ebay IIRC. Reasonably priced, not bad quality. They sent me the card below. Thought it might be a useful resource.
