  3. The guys on the 'front desk' have usually done this in the past for when folks arrive. (I'm not sure, but there may even be some Basschat lanyards on sale? )
  4. March of the killer necks! πŸ‘πŸ˜ŽπŸ‘
  5. Nice job and, given the upgrades, a very nice price! GLWTS.
  6. Lovely. A true modern classic. GLWTS. πŸ‘
  7. Fender's Rumble series is excellent and that's a great price for something that looks pretty much mint. GLWTS.
  8. Perfick! πŸ‘πŸ˜ŽπŸ‘
  9. This post cannot be displayed because it is in a forum which requires at least 1 post to view.
  10. Ooh, but for the extra Piezo control, I have to say that looks a little familiar! Lovely bass - GLWTS πŸ‘πŸ‘
  11. Much as I do like my white pearl guards, I must admit something on the dark side might just be more suitable. Either way, it looks a beauty. πŸ‘πŸ‘
  12. In my very, very, early days I briefly had a Jedson bass, so when I saw the header for your ad I had a vision of something loosely based on my old short scale Telecaster-type thing! However, what you have here is light years ahead of that - it looks absolutely great. And in such good condition, complete with the chrome trim case. A real blast from the past. GLWTS. πŸ‘
  13. Holy flippin' moly, @walshy, this for me would be the perfect pairing with my SR5. Same year. Same colour. Lovely Maple neck (though I have to say the figuring on yours is loads better than mine). Now if I just had the funds... ah, well.... just as well it's on hold! πŸ˜‰πŸ™‚πŸ˜ GLWTS.
  14. In it's basic form, this is a lovely bass, but with those upgrades... look out!! πŸ‘πŸ‘ GLWTS.
  15. Sorry to learn you've had Covid problems, Simon. Hope things improve for you asap.
  16. Great catch, Andy. And, yes, that neck is to die for! (Sorry, duplicate post due to Submit button not working - or so I thought!)
  17. Great catch, Andy. And, yes, that neck is to die for!
  18. Love it! Seriously, if I didn't already have mine..... - but I'll certainly vouch for the quality. And that Birdseye Maple neck/headstock is gorgeous. GLWTS.
  19. This old girl is 32 today! πŸ‘πŸ˜ŽπŸ‘
  20. Excellent photos, WoT. I did see your original post about the Alan Hull doc and made a note to watch. Then, on the day, I had to go out (5od's law!) and didn't set to record (aaargh). So thank heaven for BBC iPlayer! I finally had a chance to watch it last night and thoroughly enjoyed it. Very insightful and quite moving in part. I had the vinyl albums, Nicely Out Of Tune and Fog On The Tyne plus Alan's first solo album, Pipedream (which was also one of my favourite album covers). I really need to get those back into my collection! It also brought back fond memories of playing 'up north'. Through most of the 1980's I was a member of an Essex-based Country band and we played many Country music clubs and festivals around the UK. We had one agent based in Middlesbrough who would organize 7- and 10-day tours for the band in the North-East and we played many of the clubs in the region (South Shields, Sunderland, Guisborough, M'bro, etc.). One night we were booked to play 3 sets at a club and during the first break a guy came up to chat with us 'soft Southerners'. We had a good old chat and as we were heading back on stage he said quickly, "I bet you lads don't know a song by Lindisfarne called 'Run For Home'?". Our guitarist (who was a Scottish fellah from The Borders) smiled and looked at the rest of us. Although it wasn't in the set that night, we opened the 2nd set with it. I don't think we paid for any more drinks that night.
