  1. Sounds great - good luck. I will have to see how my Nordstrand Fat Stacks turn out on my Shuker, but I think I'd be interested in getting more Nordys, possibly. Keep us posted!
  2. Sorry Luke, Kelly & I are moving house. I did want to go, but just not possible! Have a great gig and say hi to Natalie for me!
  3. Thanks Luke. I always like to see companies get credit where due. Hope the wireless unit works well for you - I'm sure Nat will dig it!
  4. Sounds good Rich. I thought it was already pretty monsterous! Here are some pics taken several weeks ago that John has sent me. I have since emailed for up-to-date info but have heard nothing. Hope I get something soon! Regards Mike
  5. Get in and be matey with someone working spraying cars!
  6. Hi David, Great looking bass! I bet those Nordys sound great. I've just ordered a Shuker with Nordy Fatstacks. Regards Mike
  7. Okay, I can let this go for less than £450, but bottom I can really accept is £400!

    SG Bass build

    Looks great, nice one!
  9. Wow - this is looking brilliant. I'm not the biggest fan of headless basses, but this really looks tremendous. Can't wait to see it finished - and hanging off someone being played! Regards Mike
  10. I have received an email from Jon! Sent me some pics of the bass in bits a few weeks ago. I'll post them soon!
  11. Jesus! That's amazing. I'd love to see Jon in person but I'm in the SE and he's in Sheffield.
  12. Thanks for the input, guys. Well, 5 or 6 days since I emailed, I've heard nothing. I rang the workshop today and got no answer. I rang Jon's Mobile and got no answer, left a message. I know everyone's said how great his customer service is. I just wish I could see some of it. I appreciate he has a lot on, but I find it frustrating that I pay him sight unseen £1000 deposit, and it takes over a month for him to confirm it's received, and I haven't heard anything since (by the way, it was only me phoning that that got the receipt confirmation). I'm sure I'll be happy with the bass. I'm just not too happy right now. Not the best experience for my first ever custom. Cheers Mike
  13. Lots of interesting posts here! In no order: Richard Bona Jaco Pastorius Sting John Patitucci James Jamerson Regards Mike
  14. I've been enjoying some John Rutter recently, choral works for Clare College, Cambridge, as well as some Karl Jenkins (adiemus, Celtic stuff). Also loving some Tiger Lillies and Divine Comedy.
  15. Mr Bowman, you were one of the main culprits! And your SC just sent me over the edge! I've emailed Jon for any info today. Regards Mike
  16. Bank Holiday Bump Open to reasonable offers!
  17. Hang on, that would be Nipper, wouldn't it? Thoroughly decent chap!
  18. Richard Bona is my favourite musician, bar none, around today. That is a piece of jewellery given to him by his (late?) grandmother, and is very special, it's always on his bass. Regards Mike
  19. Hi there, it's a custom PICKGUARDIAN nitrocellulose tort pickguard, $75 - and that's not including shipping.
  20. Sweet isn't it Edward? Paul - no, there genuinely is a bathroom! The shuker is nearly paid for. I'm onto the bathroom now!
  21. Pleasure. London, I presume? [url="http://www.ticketmaster.co.uk/event/17003E6EB31AEE84?artistid=736195&majorcatid=10001&minorcatid=1"]http://www.ticketmaster.co.uk/event/17003E...mp;minorcatid=1[/url]
  22. Hi Guys Still after money to fund a bathroom for our new house! This is a relatively new addition, a Sting signature P-bass with tort guard, a moulded Fender hardcase, and upgraded basslines pickup - which sounds huge - the perfect early P-bass tone. I will include the original fender pickup - as well as the white pickguard. The neck has been sanded slightly to remove the thick gloss, so now much more playable. The only marks I can find on the bass is on the neck - one part around the seventh fret is a bit lighter than the rest of the neck - purely aesthetic, can't feel it or anything, happened during the sanding. Looking for £450 ono. Any questions feel free to PM but my internet access is limited so feel free to ring or text to 07729224338. Cheers! Mike PS Based in Chelmsford, Essex (CM2 6TY) Prefer pickup but can ship for about £16 or so!
  23. Thanks for the headsup, mate. Remember Steely Dan are also in London in July!
