Very pricey but I'm going to try and go if I can. I will regret it if I don't. It will probably be the last chance to see him in person.
Same here, hoping to make the Glasgow date, might need to swap a shift or two but I want to go for sure.

This thread gives me the itch all over again. Just so happens I've been looking at mm style lately (amongst others) and the Mrs has already been at me for what I'd like for Xmas. Heavy hints going her way now 😂

You spelled "coincide" wrong in the book
Sounds like quite a few people here have lots of stories to share
The only book i've been in was the phone book

Please excuse my ignorance but what do all the controls do?

I hadn't considered those who collect memorabilia and such. Some of those people go to crazy lengths to get what they want , and its definite that here are some incredibly wealthy folk amongst them.
It really doesn't matter then if its a good instrument or not , they're going to vanish quickly only to reappear on the 2nd hand market with an even more ridiculous price , and they'll still sell. the worlds gone mad

I wonder what led them to put the price point as high as it is? greed? Or just that they know some mug with too much money will pay whatever they ask?
I just don't get where some of these companies get their pricing structure from.
Are the components , wood of this one of incredibly high value? Or is it just the name at the end of the neck?
I'd like to know their justification for such a price, it just doesn't seem anything like good value to me. Maybe its me and my cheapskateness , but for 7k it better bloody play itself and make me look good (no small feat)

My initial thought was it was dodgy, especially when the serial number didn't check out.
Crazy price though right enough

Spotted this online this afternoon, its a bit of an oddity. Never seen a P that looks like a single pickup Jazz before.
The serial number comes back as a champion 30 amp?!? and thats on Fenders own lookup

In my teenage years i always hoped i'd make an impact in the music scene. Metallica were huge at the time, black album just released.
We were 4 guitars , of which only one of us had any real talent(not me), no singer , a bass(also not me) and drums. The drummer was and still is, a very gifted pianist and good friend of mine to this day.
We really thought we had something too, no idea why we thought that. We were terrible.
So , 30 years ago is when my dreams of international fame and stardom came to an abrupt end.

Thanks very much. Some really quaint fishing villages and good places to eat. Hope to be back there some time. Are you living on that coast?
I do yes , a few miles along the coast but not far, maybe 10-12 miles from where the pic was taken. My friend stays in Leven and its a nice walk along the coast towards Elie. Have yet to try the chainwalk there

Nowt wrong with Fife
Not much i'd agree , but like anywhere it has its downsides.
Thought that was close , often a couple of friends and I walk out that way on a nice day. Lovely place. Hope you enjoyed your stay!

On holiday up in Scotland with the Bass Rock in the background -I kid you not. 😁
From where that pic was taken it looks like it wasn't far from me. Where in Fife did you visit? Also, sorry about Fife

The V4 was looking a little dusty so I decided a spring clean was in order. It's sounding just as good but looking much fresher! 🥰
I think I'm in love 😲

I think the massive elephant in the room with this video is the big zit on Jerry's forehead. Really distracting.
Hadn't noticed until you mentioned it , now its all i can see when he is on camera

I have never been a huge fan of Jaco myself , i always assumed it was all just weird jazz widdly stuff. Then i stumbled across a video on youtube where he is discussing his gear , his inspirations , his techniques etc.
Very interesting and i have a new appreciation of his abilities. Apologies if it has been posted before
