    Who ever would consider doing a thing like that now?
  2. Piers_Williamson
    Have you checked out the Brucie Baby version of this. Not quite Northern Soul, but still good!
  3. Piers_Williamson
    Here's a left bookend for you
  4. Piers_Williamson
    Surprised no one's brought this one up....

    What a great thread (other than the bit about Leeds...as a Londoner I went to college in Leeds because people were massively more friendly than London). Newcastle is massively friendly for a Southerner if you accept them on their terms (not hard). Grainger Town is a revelation (Looks like Bath) and the countryside is properly beautiful.

    Cool. I'm not in the business of promoting the Gallery (although they did a fantastic job for me recently reverting a Wal to fretless). they do appear to have a new l/h Player Jazz which I am sure they would de-fret for you and set up, all within your budget. Just talk to Martin or John. I think they would take as much pride in this as a more expensive project.

    An alternative suggestion....pick up something like a fretted Mexican Jazz and take it to your local friendly luthier. The Bass Gallery advertises defret and lining for £110, and they will set the bass up for you

    have a New Year Bump on me!

    And to ask the nurdy question, what is that Left Handed Bass Camelle Hinds is playing in the Style Council set?

    I have a lefty version of this bass and have been playing it over Christmas (re-taught myself the Alphonso Johnson/Jeffrey Osbourne line 'Stay with me Tonight'). It's an incredibly stable bass....keeps its tuning. Quite lively pickups...much more what I imagine a 70's Jazz to sound like, despite all the early Jazz references. Great all rounder bass.

    Could I have the name of your osteopath?

    Nothing like that for keeping all the royalties to one's self
  14. Piers_Williamson
    What a great thread! No one has actually said who had the misfortune to play the bass part on this......

    Last night's gig...anyone good at Cuban Jazz Vibes out there?
  16. Piers_Williamson
    But my goodness, that is an incredibly beautiful guitar Jazzyvee!

    If bitsa bass count...these are quite famous stickers (Paul Simonon's London Calling 78 Precision)
  18. Piers_Williamson
    What a great vid. I think I have the 12" single of that somewhere. It has always sounded like a synth bass to me though. How do you get your sound?
  19. Piers_Williamson
    Looks very like the one Brandon Boone is playing at the moment for the first half of the Tedeschi Trucks Band set. Lovely bass. GLWTS

    Risk 101 is a great seller, looks after his basses. Buy with confidence! GLWTS
  21. Piers_Williamson
    Is Darth Vader included in the price?
  22. Piers_Williamson
    That's really sad for a store that is presumably trying to push a high end niche brand in Europe. I think it will be very hard indeed to hide these basses from the playing community anywhere.
  23. Piers_Williamson
    Did it come with the mute fixings behind the bridge pickup?
  24. Piers_Williamson
    I would just like to say that looking at the pics brought a big grin to my face. I think it is so OTT it is pretty good (but I'm a leftie, so not much use to me)
  25. Piers_Williamson
    Brings out my inner Pino. Properly good looking bass GLWTS
