Took the bird out last night, the chaps liked it, and the sounds I managed to get out of it ( some of them actually fitted in with theirs) after the playing the EB0 for 6 weeks , this one is needing a wider strap. . . . . Other than that . . . . Love it.

Jean-Luc, what oil have you used to perk up the finish ? ( if any )

Saw this on EBay last week, offered a price, and got it. how it survived Hermes delivery only in its original box, with a boxed amp taped to the bottom, I will never know. I guess the courier gods were on my side. I am liking it muchly.

Thankyou kind sir . I felt it better than f####up

Good morning ladies and gents. Has anyone had any experience of this bass ? Ebay embuggerence has lost me a defretted model this weekend. . . .arghhhh so , do I fork out nearly £600 for a new one ? Any info appreciated.

Well , how about the Retrovibe LPJ style medium. Bought mine a week or so ago, and its lovely. 42mm nut, about 18.5mm spacing at the bridge. the neck is so nice I'm going to use one on my aluminium tele bass build. All for £225 !

Listen to the Albanian entry, they nicked the intro from 'be my baby '

Once IT happens, can we stop embarrassing ourselves ?

The end of a dog lead and the only place it would connect ?

I never thought I'd see the 'guitsteel' on this forum, or indeed it's picker Thankyou Happy Jack

Rolling Stones . . . . Let it Bleed, always there , along with Uriah Heep . . . Demons and Wizards.

This weekend , In preparation for making a pearl one for my telecaster guitar, I used an offcut to replicate my EB0 scratchplate. No problems using a £12 blank from eBay . Scroll saw, files and sanding block. It cut nicely and looked good on the bench. the problem came when I fitted it to the red EB0. Aged white pearl on an EB0 ? Looked horrendous.

Ez bass sorry, the image of 3 members was promulgated in the book 'written ' by keef and mick , not BW 's the high point for me was the whole of the Let it Bleed album. Bills book 'Stone Alone' is indeed a good read . ISBN 0-670-82894-7.

Yes, I'm fully aware of Azaleas, that's what I want to hear.

Inspired by a previous post regarding the Fab Four, and being a Stones fan for many years, yes I'm old . in his book Stone Alone, Bill Wyman has numerous references to Keef and Mick. In a big book about the Stones ( can't remember the title, nor find it at the moment) it sounds as if there were 3 members of the Rolling Stones, Mick, Keef and Charlie. im open for education, from the more enlightened members here.

Now 'fortunate son' thankyou to my Alexa

Creedence , it came out of the sky.

Lovely looking semi in sapphire burst is now hanging on the wall. Any comments as to preferred strings, player comments etc welcome.

I'm 65 with a mental age of 15, should I now be worried ?

The Fortunes , bass player Eddie Mooney. On clips of the singing/miming to their song ' Here it comes again ' only 2 strings on his bass ? . No E or g ! Noticed from an obscure Facebook link .

Found a sapphire burst ( longscale) in a local pre loved shop yesterday. Lovely finish, so I've avoided the 2 months wait and ordered a new discounted CHB 1 shortscale in sapphire burst today. The wife will be pleased lol

Well ,my Fender Kingman has gone and I've just spoken to the man . . . . . . . Chowny SHB 1 in black burst will be with me in 8 weeks or so .

Being of that age, Hey joe has gone on my to do list. And the pink panther theme

OK, raw beginner here. I've learned a few scales, can 'play' without buzz, fingers in the right place, not yet knowledgeable on the perfect sound required. After a few intros under my belt, I decided to learn a tune, from start to finish, that I could play along to. On my Epi EB0 through a Peavey Vypyr. Ive done it. Nothing taxing I must admit, Roxette ala Dr Feelgood. . . .and it feels good ! What was yours ?
