  1. I had a disastrous experience of them a while ago trying to send my granddaughter’s present to the USA. It never got there and then months later I get a returned parcel on the doorstep. It wasn’t mine but Christmas presents for a girl in Florida, my family lives in California! I’d never trust them again.
  2. I’m with EAD on this one. I’m sure they play beautifully, they should for the money, but I find them a bit mwah.
  3. I so wanted one of these a while back, but I’m not in a position to buy. ☹️
  4. Nice looking bass, what a terrible name “Gloxy”.
  5. China doll - Grateful Dead
  6. Back in the USSR - The Beatles
  7. I suppose if you want a really small body then the steinberger cricket bat headless or the more recent spirit bass are the ones for you.
  8. The Spector NS shape would suit you perfectly.
  9. Did you really say you swapped a Ricky 4001 for the Curlee?
  10. A good leather strap.
  11. Oliver’s army - Elvis Costello
  12. I felt much the same about the Hofner violin bass which also had the strings too close together. Replaced it with the Peerless Bassmaster Player which is the same as a Jack Cassidy which Peerless made til manufacture was moved to China.
  13. What happened to the Mustang, I thought you were getting keen on short scales?
  14. I shot the sheriff- Eric Clapton (Or the Marley version if you prefer)
  15. Someone needs to learn to pack things better!
  16. The Mike Lull is similar too and rather nice,
  17. Haven’t we all got a copy of this? 😆
  18. I like the older Aria too, sort of Musicman-ish.
  19. I think duty is payable subject to a price threshold, £120 springs to mind. Leaving Europe has done musicians no favours.
  20. I’m going to be away for a month (Christmas/ New Year) so if anyone suddenly decides they want this excellent bass, it’ll be mid January.
  21. Thanks. GLWTS, too heavy for me.
  22. I’m getting used to the bass and it’s scale and really enjoying it. I’m using the tripod but wondering about the end pin. It looks a bit odd with the “frame” to place it away from the body. How have others found it in use, any views?
  23. My old Dutch - Albert Chevalier
  24. Neck width and overall weight?
  25. Something a little more exotic than black would be fun if you’re vinyl wrapping. Gold or a more psychedelic pattern would cool!
