  1. Sadly, I had a similar diagnosis 3 weeks ago Ray. I've already started selling stuff, to raise a bit of cash and to save the Mrs from being left with the job of disposing of things she doesn't fully understand. This forum is probably your best bet, depending on what you're selling. I put my Noble preamp up for sale on here a couple of weeks ago, it sold in 6 minutes! I'll be keeping 1 bass, 1 amp and 1 speaker though, to bequeath to my grandson in an an attempt to dissuade him from becoming a guitarist, and just in case an unprecedented miracle occurs......meanwhile, I'm concentrating on living in the moment. Good luck with it all.
  2. The '78 P I had back in the 90's had a baseball bat neck, and weighed over 11 lbs. My current '73 has a lovely B width neck, and weighs a perfectly balanced 8lb 3oz. A very different beast.
  3. My Noble is up for sale. No. 1184, from 2019, so still under warranty. Excellent condition. Price includes postage, UK only, fully insured.
  4. Well, no. I've had two CS Fenders, a Sean Hurley sig P, and a 60 Jazz, both beautifully built. Comparing the CS Jazz directly to the 95 MIJ Jazz I had at the time, the CS was far better in terms of build, materials, sound and playing experience.
  5. No tape binding on the blueburst I notice. My pinkburst late 90's Korean is also devoid of tape, and has a serial number on the headstock. I've not seen another one without tape. Does yours have a serial number?
  6. Bump and final price drop. It's beautiful: it can growl, it can honk, it can thump. Neck is sublime. No trades.
  7. Jimmy Page used one extensively too, studio and live.
  8. I love my Longhorn, it's a 90's Korean one, in what is best described as Pinkburst. I wanted one ever since I saw Eric Drew Feldman play one in Beefheart's magic band in NY in 1980. Its sounded immense. Jack Bruce used one, and Entwistle, so that was enough for me. I've had it over 20 years now, and gig it quite a lot, it was my only bass for a Dutch tour a few years ago. It may look a bit woolworths, but it's been very roadworthy, and despite only having a soft bag for it, it remains unmarked. It's ridiculously low weight means it's going to be used more and more now I'm officially old and decrepit. Young Jack:
  9. Bump and a price drop for this magnificent Jazz. Now £2750, UK only.
  10. I think my best of 2023 was an Epiphone Jack Casady, bought mainly out of curiosity. It turns out to be really good, comfortable to play with a unique, focussed tone that sits so well in the mix. I had to change a few things to get it right for me, but I now have to think hard whether to use this for a gig, or my Precision.
  11. I have a little Kemble studio piano just like that. Lovely thing.
  12. Here's my faded Sherwood Green Custom Shop Jazz
  13. Noble, Baby Sumo, Barefaced One10.
