IIRC a number of BCers were burnt after handing over money for basses which they never saw and arguments about having their money returned. I believe there's a thread somewhere.

IIRC wasn't there an issue with delays with Jon Letts delivering orders to people who had paid for their custom builds. Is this right? He has at least 3 basses for sale on the Reverb site https://reverb.com/uk/item/66134166-letts-woden-ultra-lightweight-short-scale-5-string-bass-guitar-handcrafted-in-the-uk-2023?bk=eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJqdGkiOiI2NDU0ODlkNC1iM2U0LTQ4ZTUtOTRhNS0zZDc2YzZjMDNiNjMiLCJpYXQiOjE2NzkxNzI1NTIsInVzZXJfaWQiOiIxMTMwOTM1NyIsInNlc3Npb25faWQiOiI0ZjVmMGZmOC0zODQ3LTQ0NmEtOTkxNy1lODY1MzcwOWVhZmEiLCJjb29raWVfaWQiOiI3NjVlYjk3OS1jYzU1LTQxZjAtOTAwOS0zYjUyNjg1NzgwMmIiLCJwcm9kdWN0X2lkIjoiNjYxMzQxNjYiLCJzb3VyY2UiOiJOT05FIn0.bolw4j5D0jGTgOrL1s-l_UFPENjGS_RNKpsWP8N8bpM https://reverb.com/uk/item/66693499-letts-mini-headless-fretless-bass-guitar-handcrafted-in-the-uk-2023?bk=eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJqdGkiOiI2ZWRkNDViZC1hYjg4LTRiY2QtODk4OS04MzdlNjRkODc2ZWEiLCJpYXQiOjE2NzkxNzI1NTIsInVzZXJfaWQiOiIxMTMwOTM1NyIsInNlc3Npb25faWQiOiI0ZjVmMGZmOC0zODQ3LTQ0NmEtOTkxNy1lODY1MzcwOWVhZmEiLCJjb29raWVfaWQiOiI3NjVlYjk3OS1jYzU1LTQxZjAtOTAwOS0zYjUyNjg1NzgwMmIiLCJwcm9kdWN0X2lkIjoiNjY2OTM0OTkiLCJzb3VyY2UiOiJOT05FIn0.U1bVO-CqgnmZI-8qD_gEBWETACS6Lo16QSftlxY907k https://reverb.com/uk/item/66185720-letts-woden-ultra-lightweight-short-scale-fretless-4-string-bass-guitar-handcrafted-in-the-uk-2023?bk=eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJqdGkiOiI1Y2M5YWE4MC0xYzU4LTQyYTktOTI1Zi0xYjY4MjY2Y2JkNGIiLCJpYXQiOjE2NzkxNzI1NTIsInVzZXJfaWQiOiIxMTMwOTM1NyIsInNlc3Npb25faWQiOiI0ZjVmMGZmOC0zODQ3LTQ0NmEtOTkxNy1lODY1MzcwOWVhZmEiLCJjb29raWVfaWQiOiI3NjVlYjk3OS1jYzU1LTQxZjAtOTAwOS0zYjUyNjg1NzgwMmIiLCJwcm9kdWN0X2lkIjoiNjYxODU3MjAiLCJzb3VyY2UiOiJOT05FIn0.uMmGV-JhAZDRoFX0XjzsqfUvjQLh92MgzhSrmYN3hmM

So where is "there" so I can go and pick it up??

Moves like Jagger - Maroon 5

I do like the fretboard.

I maintain that the 80s were the best decade for music. Just look who was on Live Aid and the Mandela concerts.

Now there's a paradox if ever I saw one. "If you want my advice, I wouldn't take anybody's advice..."

Sometimes you have to ask whether you want it done "right" or "right now". Try to pin him down to a timescale - "I'd like to use it at a gig on...." Nice bass - good luck with the build.

Agree that there's lots of good gear in the classifieds - now if I could just win the lottery and get myself some more space...

I've found that Gear Satisfaction is a temporary condition. Give it a few weeks and you'll be back to craving something new.

Hmmm...like when all the toilets were stolen from my local Police Station...not much to go on...

Smelly Cat - Phoebe Buffet

I've got a Squier Dimension - glad it doesn't look like that... Where's your respect, man?? 😉😉

Might need to get some photos done at the weekend...

I could never get on with the scratch plates on the 5ers. They look soooo much better without the plate IMO

As I mentioned above, the existing pots have 8mm shafts. Virtually impossible to find knobs for these in the UK, so what are they for? Am I the only person to have ever come across such things?

That may be where the Elves come in...

That I'd like to see...
