Happy Jack

'Nicest' = not necessarily. 'Amongst the nicest' = absolutely. You know, it never even occurred to me to just have the offending decal removed. Stupid, stupid, stupid.

Ead, best make sure that the logo is pre-CBS (controversial Basschat subject).

Unplugged does not necessarily mean Unplugged. Not actual game footage. The value of your basses may go down as well as up. Contents may be hot. Your band may be at risk if do not keep up with the rehearsals. Objects in mirrors may be closer than you think. Mind the gap.

Always rather fancied the spoons actually. And yes, I have recently bought a kazoo. 😎

Retire. From work, not bass. 129 days and four hours to go. Haven't given it a moment's thought.

Something I'll never need again is a comb. Does that count?

Yup - it came to me as a Bravewood, but the Fender logo seemed to have been on it from the start. It certainly wasn't (or didn't feel like) a waterslide when I had it. If there had been a Bravewood logo on the headstock, I'd have kept it.

Ah ... an excuse to re-visit one of my favourite clips:

The pub will make a loss on having us, and we could earn more elsewhere, but this will feel like the band is having a private party. Anyway, last night's gig was big and fun so tonight being small and cosy works for me.

"I can't really use it, I'm not a professional." Ok, that's cleared up then.

Meddle not in the affairs of bassists, for they are subtle and quick to anger ...

I can't handle anything over 9lbs these days, and I greatly prefer below 8lbs. You youngsters don't know what you've got ...

And all joking aside, Prowla, excellent heads-up ... thanks. I bought one as well.

Silvie & I will be in the States next month, might have to pick up one of these.

What logo did it carry?

Beautifully - absolutely gorgeous thing. The SD 1/4 Pounders sounded awesome, too.

I sold this because I don't 'do' relic'd basses. Big mistake. A Fender? No.

I sold this beautiful Bravewood primarily because of Now I wish I'd kept it ...

Just ordered a job lot of 1000 fake Fender decals ... money well spent.

Looks like a cooler version of

Congratulations to LewisK1975, on having the 500th post on this thread. Just to recap, has someone suggested that people put fake logos on basses then?

Not sure I follow ... if I had listed a bass with a BiN of £1000, I'm not sure I'd be happy to be told that a buyer could have 20% off!

I'm waiting for the great porridge -v- porage debate to kick off ...
