Bassfinger

It looks absolutely sheet. It could have been made by Leonardo DaVinci, but in that state it wouldn't matter.

Doesn't look like an Overwater headstock to me. Wilkinson make decent, workmanlike gear, but I'm not aware of any higher end manufacturer fitting their gear as standard. It smells fishier than Mrs Bassfingers home made apple pie.

Excellent, as a Tull fan that's a book I really ought to get.

It's all friendly stuff, nothing to worry about. He's really very good indeed, probably a better all rounder than me.

We usually do Just What I needed (The Cars) as our third, and I feel nicely I the groove by then.

Littlest Bassfinger plays guitar, and a kind of battle of one upmanship to see who is the best guitarist has erupted between me and her tutor. But on a Tuesday she goes to choir after school. A few weeks ago I walked ho to collect her and as I walked past the classroom I could hear the kids singing We Are The Champions, which I thought was most excellent.

If Axl Rose came to take me on man-O-man I'd need at least a week to work up a shiver. Ken Barlow coming at you with fists raised would be scarier.

Hold The line. If Steve Lukather ever needs an emergency bassist then I'm his man.

Vinnie Moore?

Nice rack

I've been listening to Boston's Third Stage. Tom Sholz is a notorious perfectionist and took 6 years to make it. I listen in minute detail to the quality of the production. Not all of the songs are up my street, but those that are really hit the spot. In it's own way a genuine masterpiece.

I could play ten times as well as her and I'd never get the gig because I have the visual appeal of a hippo's arriss.

Chums.

"I really want to play your guitar." "I really want to give you four stiff fingers in the throat. It's probably best that we both go home disappointed."

I've got CCTV at home so when delivery firms say this to me I can tell them what a bunch of lying bar stewards they are.

He seems a right plum.

^^^That's what got me my current billet.

Gary Glitter and Gary Moore. One wants me to join his gang, and one is out in the fields, and all I can remember is that one of those might be a bad choice.

Excellent. If they get a Jazz Bass too then it'll be worth visiting 😉

Looks great. But tell me, what is that strange thing on the left? Some kind of novelty tea chest?

Thank you! The photos don't show it, but as the poly has cured its sunk into the grain slightly. This has given a shiny but slightly textured finish which looks fantastic.

To be fair he's playing the patch really well.

I'm not entirely sure what it is,other than I'm fairly sure it isn't the maple it was sold as. It's fairly light, fairly soft, but that's all I really know. It does have some nice grain in places. Not bad for a cheapie.

Wilkinson Tuners. Well priced, look good, very little slop. What's not to like?
