    Very Glen Campbell

    That bass with the ridiculously narrow strap he has must have taken its toll on his shoulder.

    I just read this again and noticed that you say your “Casady” is a Peerless - snap! Although I like to think of them as replica Les Paul Signature basses.

    I had a Spectorcore Fretless, a great bass, very versatile.

    Looks like a rather uncomfortable body shape, a slab with no arm contour.

    Look like they’ve been designed for the Jetsons.

    A bump to help it on its way. The burgundy is a nice colour.

    Stunning looker. Never knew they made basses. I remember when Larry Carlton was an endorsee, I think he had a tele shaped thing that was his signature model.

    What a shamed the foto flame is coming off, I often wondered how durable it was going to be. If you’re wanting “vintage “ finish and sunburst isn’t an option , then provided the fiesta red is that slightly faded salmon colour that most were in the 60’s then go for that. @Trebis probably right that it will need a tort plate to look vintage. From what you’ve said it sounds like your are planning to have this done professionally, I think that’s a good call u less you’re really skilled in the art of spraying.

    Steeleye Span last night in Dorchester. Current line up only has Maddie from the original band but the newer members are excellent especially the fiddle player. Roger Carey is on bass.

    My favourite fretless bass which I’ll never be sable to afford.

    I’ve owned 2 USA Fender Ps and a Jazz, all sold and currently have a Mex P. I can’t tell the difference except the neck is on the Mex P is more like a Jazz. I like them but I don’t think they are particularly different to other basses.

    We gotta get out of this plaice - the Animals

    I think you’re right. I had a 76 Precision which had an accident and took off part of the front part of the headstock. It split along the grain and was easily stuck back. But supposing this happened on a tour ( the schedules back then were torturous) no opportunity to get it to a luthier or even get to a shop for some wood glue. May also explain why he switched to the Gibson bass or that might have just been following the fashion for semis in the 60s.

    On the road again - Willy Nelson
  22. Grahambythesea
    There are photos and videos on YouTube with the headstock in tact and modded. Then he has a white P bass and then switches to a natural finish Gibson EB2.

    Didn’t really show us his collection, no dirty bird, no spider alembic and he did seem rather bored.
