  1. Love it! Well done!
  2. I only make drunk wedding guests dance once a month, so my opinion probably doesn’t count, but your posts come across as arrogant and rude. It’s nice to be important, but it’s more important to be nice.
  3. That could make a nice bass! Rosewood bound fretboard, swap the PU covers & knobs for cream ones, maybe gold hardware.
  4. 6 string with roasted maple neck £300?! I fancy a 6 some day - these seem a highly accessible option.
  5. Nice! Love all the lines too!!!
  6. What’s that pickup, in that position, sound like? Like tighter/lighter than a P?
  7. Ooh, where to start!! Most recent and best (worst) - sharing backline with the headlining band in a rock pub gig, bloody rammed. Setting up I accidentally knock over ALL the other bands (thankfully still cased) guitars.😳 Ooh the stinking looks I got. 2 minutes later, I had to ask one of them if I could borrow a guitar strap 🤦‍♂️
  8. More of a gentle shift than anything then?
  9. My vote is reshape to Blazer style like wot @Bassassin said. Maybe paint the body (personally not a red bass sort of a chap). This is on the premise that it plays nicely. If it’s not a player, give to friend.
  10. I went camping with the wife and kids down Oxwich Bay on the Gower in about 2015. The kids started playing with another set of kids, as they do. Had a chat with the dad who turned out to be a fellow bassist. He was also playing classical guitar in the evenings. I believe the family was from the South East. At the time, I was just coming to terms with depression, so I probably not at my best, which might have been construed as rude or ignorant I’m in to fixing past wrongs these days, and it struck me the other day that the person I was talking to is probably a Basschat member, so I thought it would be nice to say hello again. Bit of a long shot, but I thought I’d reach out! Was it you?!
  11. Or “a poor excuse to buy more bass things”. Aint nuthin wrong with creative excuses!
  12. You could buy it as a project. Needs a new nut (& strings!). Replace the bridge, pickups, scratchplate, neck, tuners, maybe the body, too.
  13. I love that!
  14. Is the original covering underneath still? If not, just patch up the orange, spray the grill where the Trace badge used to be and blacken our the red stripes - it’d look prettier to sell for not too much effort.
  15. Lovely! What is BFL? I’d say anodised scratchplate in place of white - it’s what I did to my trusty JV 😁
  16. Contact Alpher instruments. Job done!
  17. Ha! I’m not strong enough!
  18. That Laney 4x10 looks nice though...
  19. I think it’s possible to get sucked in to a never ending gear fest, probably spending way more than you need while seeking the best of the best. I’m guilty of the constant search for perfection, but sometimes I wonder if I could have just bought a Rumble 500 and been just as happy!
  20. I’m always drawn to this look. I have a JV in the same clothes. If I had lotto cash, I’d buy up all the ‘57 lookie-likes on basschat.
  21. I don’t like bright colours, so I’d take this over the Elf or the TC equivalent. 300w one appeals to me. I’d assume the USB would be an audio interface for getting bass sounds in to your computer, but would be cool if audio could go the other way too. If it did I suspect it would only come out the headphone output for practicing.
  22. Surely the sofa shot is for the end when they’re finished? That last shot is like walking in on the mrs shaving her legs with the curlers in and no makeup on!
  23. I love the mini rug in front of the pedal board!!!
  24. That grain looks fantastic - I can imagine how it will look when the finish is on. Gold and green too - nice!
