Post a pic of your Bass god from your teen years

You even managed to pick the same picture! Great choice. -

John Deacon - of course. -
Welcome to the club. The Walkabout is a truly great amp.

Yes it can. It's just held in its snug fit so you can put it where you want and you can reverse it so store your basses either way round.

Is a new mass-produced bass ever worth more than £1500
Steve Browning replied to Beedster's topic in General Discussion
I guess my SVLs would be classed as boutique Precisions. They were made from measurements taken from my 66 Pbass. They are certainly over the budget we're talking about, but the picture shows the wiring. That's indicative of Simon's attention to detail, and I was happy to pay it. I've not played a Custom Shop bass, but these basses are flawless. Light and resonant, and beautifully finished. A good bit cheaper than the Custom Shop, too. -
Keep it . I am kicking myself over every one of the 4 PB70-US basses I have let go. Possibly the best value Pbass you can get. -
Superb basses. I had one in that very colour. A Fender Japan PB-70US is a brilliant instrument.

I remember getting £210 pay one month, in 1977. It was my usual amount plus a tax rebate. It enabled me to go to Andertons and spend the £209 that enabled me to buy my first Precision. Sunburst and rosewood and no case. It meant I had to walk about 8 miles to and from work for a month, but it was worth it!

I've posted these before. They'd cost a smidge more now.

But think of the exposure.

Tony bought a Fender bridge from me. Paid as soon as he made contact and let me know it had arrived ok. Great comms and super fast deal done. Highly recommended.

My very first amp was a Carlsboro Top 50. I remember it as a perfectly good amp. They reissued them a while back. The wonderful Bill Nelson was a Carlsboro man, too.

What's the bass/instrument you have had longest?
Steve Browning replied to Stub Mandrel's topic in General Discussion
My '66 Precision. Bought in the early 80's, from Tiger Music in Brighton (for £260). Pictures are almost 40 years apart.- 125 replies

Thanks Martin. Will do. Steve

Bought a set of Gotoh Resolite tuners from Martin. Brilliant comms and they were posted at the first opportunity and arrived very well packaged and exactly as described. Highly recommended. Cheers, Martin

Indeed, but this appears not to be.

Picture says it all really. Straight swap for a Fender Precision/Jazz style bridge. Recently acquired on a bass, but I prefer the 203, so it's getting one of those. £25 delivered. -
Pretty much what it says in the title. 4 string Fender bridge. Straight replacement for the old BBOT, if you want to upgrade your bass. £25 delivered.-

Best bargain is an easy one for me. I managed to win a Mesa Road Ready 2x18 on Ebay for 62 quid. The auction finished at something daft like 6:30 on a Sunday morning. I sometimes paired it with my Diesel 2x15 using a Bass 400 and a 400+. It sounded immense.

John Deacon territory!!

And you'll need to use the true value for your Customs documents.

Responded to Ian's request for a Subway DI. Deal done very quickly and payment made immediately. Perfect transaction and highly recommended.

It's a band called Fullhouse plays Frankie Miller. It's effectively Frankie's old backing band but with a new singer (Frankie is unable to perform any more). Remarkably similar voice.

The rather magnificent St Luke's in Glasgow. Brilliant crew, and sound, too.
