Hey Paul
IIRC somebody here has access to a 3D printer but may not have read your post in this thread. Try posting again in "Off topic" or ask the Mods to move this one.
Good luck
No idea when we'll next see one of these for sale. Thought that somebody might be interested - maybe somebody on the continent?

I often see a post that I think is clever, well thought out or a bit of lateral thinking but there isn't an emogi to acknowledge that.
Could we add there something like this?
For those just browsing, check what else is available for a similar price on this thread.
I would hazard that there is little of comparable quality or value for money.
Thanks for the reminder - I'm often tempted by low priced acoustic basses on eBay even though I know I'll hate it. Your reminder just reinforced my resolve against impulse buying one.
What really annoys me is when Geeetards pick up a bass and go through the motions of knocking out really bad slaplines - bad technique, bad tone and bad execution.
Geeetards who believe they can play bass just because they know a major scale and just play bits of lead with their thumb should be locked in a soundproof dungeon.
IMO McCartney is one of the bassists that pushed the instrument to another level but probably doesn't get the credit for it. Just play some of his lines to see how modern some of them feel.
I saw a document about a group of fellas who would go just about anywhere to collect autographs on cheap guitars/ sports memorabilia/ etc so maybe that's it's history. It is Glenn Matlock rather than Sid signing as the bassist.
Remember that if you use your dog as the arbiter of good taste, they do lick their own genitals.
For those who think that they'd like to be able to do that, just use a bit of chicken, I'm sure your dog will let you...
