  1. I love the jigsaw puzzle panther but not the one in the OP...Also!!! Is Uriah Duffy the only guy that does demos or summit?? he's everywhere!!! Lakland, Marleaux, Sandberg etc
  2. Could you post a picture of the bass? One of the Spector guys should be able to identify it for you and then a trip to Harmony Central/google should reveal any design issues. I began on a Warwick Rockbass which should? be a similar shape and I had no issues other than I couldn't slap it - don't know to this day if it was my technique or the instrument (there's been others i've had that didn't work for slap but it's not my style anyway so not matter!!).
  3. BEHOLD!!! (Thanks Paul5 ) [attachment=117340:Dream Bass.png] [attachment=117344:Dream Bass 2.jpg]
  4. A belated happy birthday!!! Tom Hamilton's playing one of these with Aerosmith currently but in blue
  5. The above relates to 2011. In 2007 the Gibson USA Factory was making 325 guitars a day. Just reading a thread of a guy who visited the plant is all - they've asked Mike Eldred, he only confirmed that they put out less than the above 200 Custom Shop Instruments per day (2011).
  6. 200 of these are 'Custom Shop' guitars...anybody know how many Fender produces???
  7. That's cool man, I'm a Carvin fan - I remember seeing these when they came out and nicer than an early 70's vintage jazz is what i heard.
  8. Not that the 7.5" radius is a problem on a Tele (frets seem higher than on a strat) it's far better having the flatter 9.5" radius for playability. I have a G&L where the V neck profile is the same all along whereas the Fender American Vintage '57 Stratocaster Reissue went from a V to a C profile behind the higher frets (both very nice indeed) but which is your tele like?

  9. This post cannot be displayed because it is in a forum which requires at least 1 post to view.
  10. My first guitar teacher taught me on Shergold guitars and basses...nostalgia
  11. Ahh, thankyou - that's puzzled me for 8 years lol
  12. What is the purpose of the bridge to pickup brass? Always wondered what those were!!
  13. [quote name='Happy Jack' timestamp='1345533751' post='1778460'] I'm surprised you can even tell them apart. They're virtually identical, aren't they? [/quote] Hahaha!! I despair when I have to read anything written by this guy, but it's the picture of him that makes me flail my arms - it's like summit outta f***in' Narnia
  14. He is particularly annoying in the vid, I usually like his reviews - it's that Rob Chappers (Andertons) guy that makes me want to bite into furniture
  15. What's the story behind the inlay 'db'?
  16. Ah I didn't know they'd been upgraded, thanks! It's gotta be handy having a Precision 5 in the recording studio, I reckon i'd need a back up for speedier playing though too - I like big necks but my hands are tiny.
  17. Does anybody have one of these?? I had a craving for one a couple of years back but they seem to have been an anti climax! There's only Ed Friedland's review on youtube. I solved my craving by opting for a USA G&L L2500 - has that bass been the reason for it's lack of popularity??
  18. Aww that's such a beautiful instrument, I would have kept playing if I had something this fun - I was last playing fretless/precision basses but I should have changed to DB years ago...gotta be enjoyable. Oh well!! Stratocasters for now . Good decision to keep.
  19. One of the best basses I've played, if not the same one! Don't see many.
  20.

I'd like to say I do the first, but he played Bristol and I couldn't be arsed. [/quote] Hahaha, my personal favourite is Phil Minton's Feral Choir...
