Partner said yesterday - this needs a good hoovering. I said “it’s gets used for every single trip to the tip, it’s a very small car, and I have no free time when there is also daylight - what did you think was going to happen?”

I didn’t realise that you took my Peugeot. TWOCker

Reality.

Ok … I have a newer, higher bar to aspire to 👍 edit- there is a parallel universe where I’m even half that capable but sadly I don’t live in it 🤷

No one leaves basschat whilst still breathing

I’ve been to one of those .. Bob geldof did a very, very half-hearted set and girlsschool did their best to look like travel agents on a lunch break Only highspot was watching the very petite Enid from girlsschool wrangle a p bass very adroitly

Easily fixed with a shower, leaving just the memories

If you add your location you’ll probably find some of us are local

Agree but totally cannot fault my v7-5 sire. Just don’t need anything else even a keyboard player said “that looks awesome” upon first sight. The guitarists didn’t say anything as it was snack time and someone had hidden their duplo

You’ll fit right in, mister. keep it simple … check p bass … check willing to learn … check

Rush got it wrong - it’s not The Spirit Of Radio, it’s “the spirit of basschat”. Losers, Rush will never do anything successful, five minute wonder you need something called X, I have three and I’ll send you the best one by express 24. Don’t send money. Right there, right there in the Walmart 👍

Agree, but the continuing argument is whether you can also get a better-made, better QC fender-a-like for less. Eg Sire

Possibly but the consensus so far is to swerve around

Good decision but I’m sad for whoever buys it at an inflated price

Sounds like a fake then

Is there a difference?

Lighter punch = less chrome depth required

No. So real that it’s actual brer bear says so

The font on OPs photos looks heavier and deeper

Also the pots look quite new…

Can you show your neck plate please for comparison- maybe block out some digits

I’ve read what people here have written who know far more than me and I agree. Only if it’s cheap … would be my view, and the neck and frets look like trouble brewing

It’s okay for the serial to be stamped on the neck plate for some early years. IIRC it was them moved to a decal on the headstock. There are experts on here who could tell you when approximately, like@Hellzero amongst others equally this may be a bitsa where someone didn’t do their homework my guess is that it’s a good fake with a few original parts - probably white originally also. Doesn’t mean it’s a bad instrument though
