  1. I think I would ideally want to spec a machined aluminium neck, with a richlite fretboard on a headless bass, so that there is no wood on the instrument at all. And then use a Roland pickup and V-Bass synth so that the bass could sound like whatever it needed to, without worrying about tonewood and all that stuff. When are you going to be taking orders, Rob??
  2. Looking good! What's the tour?
  3. Welcome aboard!
  4. Welcome aboard!
  5. .. wasn't supposed to have been on my hand at all 🍌
  6. Corrected following review. Hope the therapy sessions start soon
  7. Yes you can. And if it's Scotch then you definitely should!
  8. Never had a problem. The only time I would take it off, even assuming I could get it off now, would be for using machine tools or where it could get caught. Bass playing isn't as dangerous.
  9. Gets kinda funky at 49 minutes in.
  10. I would leave it there too.
  11. Welcome aboard, EB!
  12. Just done my tax return. If I've got this right then HMRC owes me the nice @Andyjr1515 single cut that's for sale in the marketplace 😃 Or more likely the cost of the roof repairs following the high winds. ☹️
  13. A bow is OK. So are ribbons, stickers, and flowers. But you will feel a bit daft at Symphony Hall with a DB looking like that.
  14. That quite happily worked for the first few years. But there is such an interesting variety of basses, different choices of tech, design, priorities, thought processes. It's not like a clarinet or a violin where the design is fixed. That's my excuse, and I'm sticking to it!
  15. I'm in. And on this thread too. 😊
  16. Where in the rules does it say that? (I'll post on the other thread as well)
  17. I'm in. There are two basses in the market place I want, but emphatically don't need, so I'll nail my colours to the mast now. And hope I don't unexpectedly come into a grand or so.. 😁
  18. Welcome aboard BassChat, and welcome back to the low end.
  19. Happy New Year and welcome to the forums.
  20. Annoyingly I deleted most of the photographs of the internal measurements from my Armourdillo review on here, when we needed to clean up space. https://www.basschat.co.uk/topic/395088-amourdillo-bass-defender-semi-rigid-casegigbag-review/?do=findComment&comment=3980589 I can find them again if you think it might do the job?
  21. Welcome aboard! Good choice of bass. 👍
  22. That headstock is horrible. It looks like a demented fish from a kid's TV show.
  23. Welcome (back?) I am NOT changing my name to DickIAm.
  24. Will be followed by unsubtle comments about the need to replace my car. ☹️ But as I have said to Andy- one day I will own a bass with swifts on the headstock.
  25. Still drooling over this absolutely gorgeous instrument.
