I didn't for a moment imagine that he would do such a thing to one unless it was battered beyond recognition. But that particularly handsome bit of tort...and that bound neck...ahh they deserve better.....

Ah the penny drops at last. Fanx

I especially liked the neck / pick at 1'43". But I would. I also came across a demo of the SB-75 which started with a style conscientious youtube demos don't normally include:

You going to have yours stripped and refinished in LPB?

Keep an eye on Peacock Auctions in Bedford

Has anyone ever read an explanation for Yamaha's 33¾" scale length back then? It doesn't look any prettier written in metric – 85.725 cm. Am looking forward to be hearing how much effort is needed to feel the difference. PS a choice of either natural or targetburst, what a world it was.

Presumably it looks a lot more trad once the player's arm is coming over and covering the bulkier bit of the body

A photo of me and my Westone back when I was a Jesus and Mary Chain-loving Third Former* These days, I'm rather proud of the sulky, world-weary expression I'm displaying at such a tender age. I'm rather less proud of what I did to that poor guitar's electronics three years later *Year 9 (apparently)

I grew up playing a natural finish guitar and found the refined tastefulness of its appearance jarred with the noises I was making with it. One day the ghost of my teenage self with be avenged and all those pretty strips of wood will disappear under a nice thick coat of blazing red.

I need to stop reading these, I'm pìssing the day away...... ERNIE BALL 5 STRING BASS GUITAR Serial No: 50070. In my third group ‘Revenge’, I decided that I was going to become a new me. I set off for The London Bass Centre clutching £300, which I had convinced myself would be enough for a new change of guitar identity. It’s the musicians equivalent of ‘Gonna wash that man right out of my hair!’. When I got there, I was shocked to discover that even an entry-level 4 string professional bass guitar was in excess of £700! stinky poo! I tried this and loved it. It was used on the song ‘Surf Nazis’, but as above never suited me or any other song. That low C… was not for me. Cost £850.00 had to max out my credit card ;( FIRST EVER CHRIS ECCLESHALL PETER HOOK EBO HOLLOW BODY BASS GUITAR. With hard case. The very first ‘Chris Eccleshall Peter Hook EBO hollow body BB1200s’ ever made. Christened HOT because it bloody was. A great guitar. Used on every New Order gig since 1982. The Original. The hollow body enabled it to feed back whenever you wanted it to. You should have seen Barney’s face. Chris, rest in peace! Shortly after presenting me with the last guitar he ever made, he passed.’ Viking 2’ ready for heading off to Valhalla. 2006 IVOR NOVELLO AWARD. Presented to Peter Hook on 25.05.2006 for Outstanding Song Collection. Presented in association with PRS by the British Academy of Composers & Songwriters and also includes Ticket, Programme, Letter of Nomination & Collectors Programme. These do’s used to be wild. The new sober me though saw them completely differently. At the end of this one, some bloke came up to me and said, "Hooky….your sober now yeh?" I agreed, expecting a friend of Bob's. "Shame," he said, “Your food fights were legendary mate. I was sat next to Bono at The Q Awards and you got him right on the head with a bread roll, closely followed by Iggy Pop. Great shots. Take care!" and off he went...

Have you considered having this as your signature?

It's worth browsing through the catalogue just for his commentary

Presumably the reward exists to tempt people into dobbing in their associates?

The prototype of that is Lot 21
