    Would you like a holiday at mine in sunny Retford by any chance?

    I always think a fretless bass looks far cooler without lines. My Warwick has dots where the frets should be and its more logical instead of dots in between the frets if that makes sense.....l'll get my coat!

    Many years ago when l lived in a small back to back terrace house in a mining village in South Yorkshire, my Uncle George who was a scrap dealer from Bradford turned up in a brand new white E type. He took me out for a spin in it and when l got out l told him that when l grew up l was going to buy one of these. He looked at me and said son, don't waste your money...put it in gold and property! Canny lad was my Uncle.

    Sorry it was tongue in cheek and meant as a joke!

    Why do l keep coming back to look at the long G bridge screw?
  6. Woody1957

    Wowza, If this was in the UK, ld walk there with the cash!
  8. Woody1957
    Wow..lm struggling to slap just with my thumb never mind the other 4 fingers!

    The E string is louder and sounds quite boomy no matter how l adjust the eq.

    Standard 1+/1-
  11. Woody1957
    Isn't 1+/2+ the wiring of neutric plugs for bridged mode?
  12. Woody1957
    Bargain! Perfect for uplighting a drum kit. Glwts.

    Sorry for the very late reply...yes it is the collector grade sunburst one bought from Simon on this forum.

    Thanks for your tip but l usually do that anyway to all the strings at the bridge. I've tried a smaller E gauge 95 and seems to help somewhat but it's not ideal. I'm still thinking about changing out the stock pups for some Norstrands though..but it would obviously spoil the provenance of the instrument which is basically a collectors grade Jazz.

    It would huff and puff and blow your house down!

    What's the weight of the tank please? Is the barrel long or short scale. Cheers.

    Cnc routers are magical and can easily replicate any design you want after it's been programmed in. Lovely design though.

    Makita orbital sanders are amazing pieces of kit though!

    Had one of these a few years ago in our Country and Western Dolly Parton tribute band....
  21. Woody1957
    Just beautiful......would you trade it for my wife..well used but in fair to good used condition and cooks a wonderful spaghetti carbonara ??
  22. Woody1957
    Why do l keep coming back to look at this Bass🫣
  23. Woody1957
    I've got a R 400 and l use it 95% of the time..it's brilliant and sounds awesome. I also had a subway D800 and it was a complete letdown when l used it on gigs and rehearsals. I soon got rid of it but instead bought a Orange Terror 500 for reheasals and back up. I love this little amp even though its a D class it sounds great and blows the Subway out of the water.
  24. Woody1957
    Proper bargain all this, especially for a young band just starting off. GLWTS bud...worth every penny.
  25. Woody1957
    Fantastic looking bass! Didn't Jimmy Lea from Slade play one until it got pinched? That guy could really play..if you don't believe me have a listen to his bass solo on Dirty Joker from the Play it Loud album. Apparently according to my daughter who plays grade 8 violin, it's based on a movement by Bach. Makes sense as Jimmy started off as a violinist.....l'll get my coat..
