Letts custom flame maple 5 string bass reluctant sale
loushort replied to loushort's topic in Basses For Sale
[quote name='morsefull' timestamp='1356815056' post='1914018'] No, I haven't. But if I want to buy or sell on this forum I want to do it with the confidence that comes from knowing that people on here act with respect to each other. I think what you did was disrespectful to the buyer who offered the asking price. [/quote]Had I agreed to the buyer to sell it for £300 then changed my mind then he is totally in his right to be upset-but I sent him a message saying thanks for the intrest but I cant let it go for that price an error on my part I underpriced it -

Letts custom flame maple 5 string bass reluctant sale
loushort replied to loushort's topic in Basses For Sale

[quote name='Sibob' timestamp='1355701205' post='1901699'] I priced up a singlecut with Jon, it's still in my sights, but some other business has to clear up first. I was under the impression I had to have a wood finish......he might not appreciate that I want a solid white finish now Si [/quote]As you know what takes the time is prepping the wood and filling it sanding it down ready for paint,then its a good couple of coats-leaving it to dry. Then the lacquer coats go on and have to dry then buffing it to a shine its a lot of work for a one man show and if one of those processes screws up its back to the bare wood and start again,I can't speak for him but I'l be surprized if he does anymore colours but he might surprize you and do it

[quote name='Sibob' timestamp='1355679252' post='1901281'] Whats the white one? Didn't think Letts did lacquered solid colours?? Si [/quote]Under the paint its made of different striped woods like Claypool's rainbow bass Jon wasn't happy with the out come so decided to spray it white as it was Christmas time It took him ages to do as he is a real perfectionist and wont let anything go unless hes totally happy with it So I borrowed it for the Christmas shows we play at The Cluny Warehouse in Newcastle every year (back there again end of this week)then became a keeper The soap bar pick up has a little white light inside it which comes on when plugged in and its got a great sound to thanks to the unique position of the pick up, plus uses very little battery life

[quote name='lettsguitars' timestamp='1355530006' post='1899772'] Lou returned the bass after noticing some twisting in the neck (a lot of twisting in the neck). I must say it is the only neck I ever had trouble with. Anyhoo, mad him a new neck, nice one, the bass played great and I had alot of compliments from friends etc. I, however had a bee in my bonnet about the carve. The bass was made before my stuff really took shape and I finally fell into my neck-through groove and found a decent level of continuity of carve and contour. It kept me awake one night too many and found it's way into the wood burner like a good few of my early guitars and anything else that I dont think is right. Lou is still waiting for his replacement and is very dubious about leaving any of his 'early models' with me nowadays. I have 2 of his sitting here waiting to be picked up after a few updates. Jeez,it's cold tonight! I feel a burn comin! [/quote]are you about tomorrow or Monday I'll drop in
