  1. It was indeed.....!
  2. Been a little while with this one... These relic jobs take a while! Body has stabilised and nitro hardened, so it's on to final assembly. Tuners, bridge and screws aged lightly in vinegar bath and put on. Jobs left to do: - Fit pickups - Wire up - String Tree - Set up Always fancied a mid 60's P but put off by the price? Build your own
  3. 2 guitars left to sell and then I'm down to acoustics only. That means Bass funds aplenty. Given my history with P basses I probably should avoid buying more! Might have to try something different in 2018..

      @discreet - I've tried so many Jazz's and tried so hard to like them... but I just can't.. I just can't.

      Exactly the same for me, for over 40 years. Had to make my own for it to work. :)

      Need to wait a few years yet then :D

  4. I'm in the "I don't get this type of question" camp. Music is a personally subjective thing. One persons brilliant will be another persons awful. And this question doesn't work if it's inviting a ranking system. I mean - who is going to be brave and answer the question: "Who is the least talented musician of all time?"
  5. But that's just more expense!! Plus the fact tweed doesn't do it for me...
  6. Gonna look rubbish with my barefaced cab tho
  7. Looking forward to it @mjw amps I suspect there will be a lot of pictures up here - first things first - need to pick a colour scheme!
  8. Yep. That's def. original 60s tort.
  9. If it's like most studios I've been to only 2 of the 8 speakers actually work (intermittently)
  10. Not finalised yet - but basically a B15 clone with a few surprises..
  11. I'm second in his new queue for a build...
  12. No, no.. a good old one
  13. Hah! It was actually a "beginner" guitarist Jam - I was on bass duties
  14. Well, yes. But, well, yes. And possibly no. But mostly yes. Mostly I was impressed by the noise floor, and just how much air it moved.
  15. On a serious note, and for anyone who is actually interested - it held up very well with a drummer and 4 (!) guitars.. I was adjusting volume down quite a bit... No funny noises, no parping, and loads of bottom end. I suspect the k12.2 would have been far too much for the room. I was originally going to run it out to the PA as well - but quickly came to the conclusion that it would be total overkill
  16. One does not simply play for Taylor Swift.
  17. Don't worry, I had the studio owner remove all the blue smarties..
  18. There was a distinct amount of trouser flap. Also much vibration and much rib cage rumbling. There were quite a few guitarists there with some big big amps who all universally said "&)@;&) me that's loud.." Rock n roll is dead, man.
  19. Totally. There was an 8x10 with a Hartke head in the practise room. Tried it, but it was just too good to carry on with so I used the crappy QSC instead.
  20. I had a go on a Shergold Marathon today. Black. Maple neck. Obeche body so nice and light. Not as punchy as a P but sounded individual and sat nicely in the mix. Was really rather nice, and I wasn't expecting that..
  21. Took it out to a jam session today. @&£!*^ me its loud. No parpy noises on the low notes. Very clear and loads of projection. Cor.
