  1. No harm in asking though!
  2. It’ll sound better after a bit of running in, too, no doubt. Was it this thread that prompted Barefaced’s “notablackfriday” sale?
  3. When my instrument’s neck isn’t failing catastrophically, I also dream that I’ve written the best song ever. Or the best bass line ever. In last night’s episode (before the neck coiled like a snake) I was going to play and sing “Lets Dance” for my work colleagues. I did a really good Bowie impersonation.
  4. Posted more for amusement than anything, but I’ve been having these frustrating dreams where the neck of what ever bass I’m playing folds at each fret (like it’s hinged) under the tension of the strings, so the neck curls toward the bridge as I’m playing. I have to bend it back out then to continue playing. What’s that all about?!
  5. I was going to post this. Unfortunately my recollection of events is equally vague sorry.
  6. That looks the business. Where does the wire go to not cause any damage to the bass?
  7. The matte finish is a lovely contrast to the shiny chrome!
  8. Crikey he’s got a good set of pipes!
  9. That looks really good! I’m also enjoying the “Changing Rooms” updates in the background!!
  10. Do a NCD post when it arrives, please!
  11. Pretty good figures there! I like the white 1x12. The 1x10 is tiny!
  12. And the wadding is there to cushion the sound, and also make it “warmer”.
  13. True, the spare sound drops to the bottom, but that’s why most lightweight cabs have ports there - to let all the heavy notes out. That’s why port size is so critical - if you let too much sound out, the cab simply floats away. At least, that’s my understanding of it all.
  14. Looks ace, but I’d address the fabric ripples. Maybe try removing the grill and putting a hot hair dryer to it? Failing that pull the staples out and start again. Sorry for the negativity- it really is an ace looking cab!
  15. I went off this for a bit after the ugliness of the routing! Thankfully, a @KiOgon loom and a three hole tele plate turned up and I’m excited to get it finished 😎
  16. There’s the new hifi speakers sorted! No more packing your gig stuff away during the week.
  17. That’s awesome! Love that it’s so refreshingly different!
  18. How much is your not much? I couldn’t find any (obvious) pricing on a quick search.
  19. The first one I ever did 20yrs ago I parted out. 2nd was a bitsa P so doesn’t count. I’m hoping I’ll do an alright job of number 3...
  20. Fretless? Also neckless! 🤣 Thats a lovely sheen on lovely grain though.
  21. Champagne gold, gun metal grey - something metallic I reckons.
  22. I’ve never played one, nor am I familiar with the brand, but just looking at the pictures then scrolling up to the price I spat out my tea (or would have done had I been drinking it) when I saw the price - £130 smackers for that? Is there a zero missing?!
