    I honestly think the best bet is to send it back and claim from HMRC, it's a pain but it can be done. The last SLB300 that sold here was quite a lot lower in price, I suspect that you may struggle to get what you want, even though it's no doubt worth every penny and lower than retail price. Should also add that if you do go ahead with the sale you will need to post photos of the actual bass, I recognise it's new but c'est la vie Good luck 👍

    ….and of course if you installed a pair of Dimarzio model Ps in there the adjustable pole pieces would have it covered anyway 👍

    Crikey that was probably an unlucky typo! Meant to say 'Basschatted', the past tense of the verb 'to Basschat', which describes the processes whereby a thread on a serious topic descends into a form of bass-related word-association/projective test/silliness often involving images from 1970s culture (Monty Python, Leonard Rossiter, Kenneth Williams, Leslie Phillips) or that bass builder from Surrey and which deviates significantly from that point forwards until someone replies to the original post and stops the silliness...... @Dood I think you may have thought I was obliquely referring to another builder, which I wasn't

    This thread has been properly Baachatted for sure, but that comment has made me laugh out laugh pretty much since I first read it. Has the author not seen the luthiery in question 😀

    Certainly not from a work device 👍

    I imagine he'll keep pretty quiet this time 👍

    Thanks Nick, I play flats for slap - much less offensive and far more melodic to my ear - if it's still around in a week or so I my need to engineer a trip 👍
  10. Beedster
    Brilliant, we've Basschatted the thread 👍

    He's an addict, he gets his kicks this way as well as some income. There are people who pretty much rewrite other people's books and sell them on Amazon. They don't do it for the money, they do it because the curious form of status they believe it brings makes them feel good, or at least makes them feel their version of good. This guy's gonna keep on going, he's like gambler or a stalker, the normal rules that apply to people like us just don't apply to his psyche, and there's enough people in hyperspace who don't know his background or who don't care to keep making him feel good

    Nick what is the slap tone like and how does the slap plate help (or hinder), I'm doing Graceland next year and there's a very big part of me that thinks that bass might be a rather interesting weapon for the gig?

    Hi Scott, I'll drop you a PM with details. Chris

    I was initially fooled into thinking it was the work of a small-scale/bespoke luthier but realised who (I think) it is when I saw the pics which immediately conjured other instruments built by the same (I think) maker. Either way, should be ashamed of letting that out in to the wild
  17. Beedster
    I'm pretty sure he and I are thinking the same, it's why the headstock was out of the pics

    👍
  19. Beedster
    Anything you need in trade Nick?
  20. Beedster
    Can't imagine you could damage the down-firing speaker by using it flush with a gramma but best ask @agedhorse
  21. Beedster
    All joking aside I’m really not sure how a gramma makes is better for the neighbours, just use EQ and volume?
  22. Beedster
    Well all I can say is be glad you didn’t opt fir the Drophead 😆
