Greg sold me a thing and it was delivered the next day and it all went well.

Castilian is different again! (It's "normal" Spanish). Valencian is the same as Catalan.

Which is what you were saying, I think.

And not that it matters.

It's also Valencian (same language, different name, basically).

£100 delivered to your UK address. £85 picked up from Penge in SE London. I could also meet elsewhere in London, if that helps and it's close to public transport. I'm also in Leeds occasionally.

This is a lot of fun to play. The strings are (or appear to be, or at the very least are exactly like) Rotosound nylon tapewounds, albeit with black silks. You can see that the silks protrude slightly onto the first fret position. It doesn't affect how it plays. The three knobs are something of a mystery to me. Two of them seem to control volume, but with different results, and one affects tone. It must be something to do with the type of pickup.

It stays in tune nicely and has a nice all round feel to it. It comes with the adjustable stand that it sits on.

Will try to answer any questions.

¡Benvingut!

"We" don't. Some of "you" do.

I think I would like this please. Will PM shortly.

I emailed them about it yesterday; no reply. I assume it went quite quickly.

Gary sold me a thing and it came in the post and it was all great.

Something a little bit like this maybe?

Rag-a-jazz!

Shyeah right.

Why shouldn't we ask you why?

Maybe everyone's got the bass they need now.

If only it were more affordable...

I'm thinking of building a bass starting from this pickguard.

Seller not impressed with offer of £15. Unsurprisingly.

Thanks, I'll let you know!

That's a good point! I just made an offer of 15 quid, and if it gets rejected or ignored I'll just leave it be. I was reading somewhere that in the old days (whenever that was) Encore made basses with the exact dimensions and specs as Fenders... though that could be phooey, this might be an Encore from a different period, it might not be an Encore, it could be made of balsa wood, blah blah.

Thanks people.

So... worth 20 quid or so? I don't know about these things.

This is reasonably local, and I thought I might offer 20 quid for it, as something to sand down.

The blurb says it's quite light -- I can't decide if that's a good thing or a bad thing.

Any thoughts either way, you folk who know about things, and stuff?

And the blobby walrus!

The Horniman's collection is great, and very nicely curated.

I'll take the P foam please.
