  1. Welcome...
  2. Welcome sir... Good choice with the Spector...
  3. That' snow place to be practicing...
  4. If you ever decide to rehome them let me know...
  5. Cool....or should that be "cold"?
  6. Mini - Corduroy
  7. The two "true" Stingrays I had were chalk and cheese. The '96 played like a dream, perfect balance, great tones. The '06 was one of the most indifferent instruments I've ever owned. Regretted selling the first - non plussed about the second..
  8. Go West - Pet Shop Boys
  9. The Gambler - Kenny Rogers
  10. The Bottle - Gil Scott Heron/ Paul Weller
  11. Maybe one of our resident luthiers would like to start a chambering service?
  12. I like the minimalist look...cream knobs and pick up covers please...
  13. In daylight it does nothing...photos in the dark and we all go..."Ooooo"
  14. Fly me to the Moon - just about everybody during the 60s and 70s
  15. Only partially true...After MyHermes failed to collect my recently acquired bass, Interparcel allocated the collection to Tuffnells who I knew nothing about (even though they have a depot about 1 mile from where I live). Apparently they're no/ not much better than MyHermes.
  16. https://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/m.html?_odkw=&_ssn=zipdragon&hash=item264f46b275%3Ag%3AMDYAAOSw3iBfv7-8&item=164538790517&_osacat=0&_from=R40&_trksid=p2046732.m570.l1311&_nkw=bass+guitar&_sacat=0
  17. Can't remember who I sold mine to... https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Vintage-Bass-Brewery-Made-in-England-Pewter-Beer-Tankard/114637402127?hash=item1ab0ebf00f:g:RAUAAOSwHxNgBbKn
  18. Like Steve, I believe this needs to stay on page 1....bump
  19. I agree - I have Indo made Laklands, G&Ls amongst others. The point I was making is that it doesn't really matter where basses are made anymore - hence not being able to understand the premium we pay for US built instruments - anybody can nail them together. The builders in Korea/ Indonesia/ China can all do it to a satisfactory level once trained.
  20. I quite like this...
  21. Guitars ceased to be "hand-made" a long time ago so it nolonger requires a craftsman to make one, merely a machine operator. If you want a hand crafted instrument for a reasonable price go to one of the luthiers on this forum.
  22. No surprises there...for roughly the same money somebody could buy a really crappy copy... I know where I'd spend my money.
  23. Hit me with your best shot - Pat Benatar
  24. So it's back... They tried to sell it a while back - I think it was only half a mill then...
  25. A good buy so say "Good bye"..... TBH I wouldn't have minded this myself.
