  1. Retired at last! (A fine feeling no doubt?) I wish you all the best in your future endeavours whatever these maybe. Snorks
  2. That's odd about the timing. Mine arrived two days after I ordered them.
  3. This bass is an even greater temptation now. Surely someone will snaffle it this week?
  4. Me likewise.
  5. Mere stripling at April 2012 - seems a whole lot longer though.
  6. That you got £50 for it?
  7. I think you nail it with the word 'hype'. They're good enough basses, but IMHO, no better than many other flavours out there. I've owned three of them and sold each, as they just never made the cut when times got hard financially and things had to go. They had very comfortable necks and stable tubers; the bridge was rock solid and the controls top quality, however, I always found the tone controls fiddly and difficult to dial in a useable tone quickly on the fly. BTW, my first Wal cost me £50 (not a typo), when I bought it second-hand, as the guy selling it loathed it with a passion!
  8. The e-mail came from Guitar Guitar, might I add.
  9. This arrived in my inbox this very morning.
  10. There was an Overwater 'original shape' on Bass Direct this morning.
  11. Might I suggest you drop the weight on here, as Thumbs can vary with different woods. GLWTS. Beautiful top btw.
  12. That doesn't bother me too much - I gig Gibson RD Artist basses regularly. 😂
  13. There's a Hagstrom 8 on Bass Direct's website right now. Good luck.
  14. 1st class instrument (and no longer in production). Surely, the Holy Grail of fretless? Someone is going to be one seriously happy bassist when they buy this one. GLWTS
  15. Never a truer word written.
  16. Roscoe Beck V in Candy Apple Red. (Maybe they only made two or something?) ☹️
  17. That looks beyond lush. GLWTS
  18. Ahhhh, but WHICH TYPE of coffee? (Therapy time again!) 🤪
  19. They all look genuine to me and match perfectly, but the headstock might be a Rickenbacker re-mould of the Gibson copy of an original Guild, Gretsch rip-off? To be sure, I'd sell it, or swap for a microphone. 👍
  20. Try to keep this topic up there, as someone will pick it up and provide a solution.
  21. Type 'damaged screw extractor' into Amazon (other Googles are available) and there's a range of tools for this very job. Best of luck.
  22. Some of our esteemed brethren or sistern (?) might be able to print you something on one of these new-fangled 3D printer-whatsitnames? Good luck.
  23. FTFY Damn. I'm happy to fall off any Cliff in any way whatsoever.
  24. As promised Stubs. Agree with your positive review. Bestest wishes Snorks
  25. Lies! It's me - I'm a part-time T-bag model.
