I see that Khruangbin are playing tonight, I would have liked to see them I like some of their music, unfortunately I’m not around, is anyone lucky enough to be going
I don’t normally go for the late 70s ones and usually i like as original as poss but I’ve got a strange attraction to this 77, I was looking for an early P bass to just leave at the studio , been watching it for ages

It all looks good and I like that colour combo but for me I couldn’t get on with that body rout , but I suppose that’s reflected in the price , I’ve been looking at a lot of 60s precisions lately and they have gone up considerably
A good friend of mine is in a rock band, it’s not really my kind of music but it’s good to see him and watch him play as he’s a great bass player, but unfortunately I’ve stopped going because they are so loud it’s uncomfortable
Ah yeah I remember that too, would have been around the mid 80s I think, all the basses were on the back end of the shop, I also used a studio just round the corner but can’t remember the name of it
There was 2 I vaguely remember in Leytonstone high road, Freedman’s and Holiday Music, would’ve been around 78/80, I was having bass lessons as a teen and it was probably the first place I saw a fender jazz for sale but couldn’t afford anything like that then, I’ve made up for it since 😁, I found one pic but nothing for freedman’s
I don’t use the covers on my P and jazz basses, but my AVRI 62P came with the bridge cover fitted so I left it on, all my the screws go in a small sealable bag and stored in the hard cases, same with the thumb/finger rests and screws
Hi Rob, I’ve spoken with Phil many times but we’ve never actually done a deal, last time was his 72P, he’s mainly guitars but does get some decent basses sometimes
