Thanks for the links Bill, very useful.

Made in China?

With several people mentioning trip hazards I want to highlight this as I took a tumble this morning answering the door in haste. Bass was pulled off stand and very luckily fell onto soft chair edge and my Ashdown Mibass amp crashed on floor. Gear ok and just a sore wrist for me luckily, us old fossils don't bounce as well as we used to. Do take care everyone.

Fantastic transaction with Dave. Like new condition item , very well packaged and speedy delivery. all exactly or better than described. 5 star service, thank you

Orange crush also an option

Peavey Bass just arrived in exactly as described condition. Thank goodness it was very well packed as it had been well beaten up by Parcel force, bloody couriers are getting worse by the week it seems. Deal with confidence and very smooth transaction. Thank you Matt very nice bass

Must be the ol' noggin failing, could have sworn they started as a trio. cheers skb558

I thought Martins brother was the original guitarist, he's name eludes me. They advertised for a guitarist in melody maker and couldn't choose between Ted and Andy so both joined. That is the story as far as I am aware. But please correct if i am way off the mark.

Terence Michael Joseph Butler has been known to write a few songs. I'll let you work out what the hits are......... https://www.allmusic.com/artist/geezer-butler-mn0000193848/credits

Oh good, I chatted with Sonja a few years back and she said Mike might be playing again. How about Wishbone Ash? I think Martin Turners Wishbone Ash has the only original remaining member. Guitarists Andy Powell and Ted Turner (no relation) joined later.

Now that I did not know. Must check to see it with own eyes as I always believed otherwise. Ty Dad3353 given me another tangent to explore. Well I never, all the years thinking that intonation was needed before a harmomic check. thank you for enlightening an old fool ** update ** As a fan of the floor/pedal tuners which I seem to recall it is based on and specifically naming 4 and 5 string bass it might be worth a punt? https://www.boss.info/us/products/tu-02/?utm_campaign=boss_pidd_0131&utm_medium=email&utm_source=activecampaign&utm_content=button2&utm_source=ActiveCampaign&utm_medium=email&utm_content=New+pedalboards%2C+tuner+++wireless+tech&utm_campaign=BOSS+Launch_Jan21+-+US Damn, looks like March 1st release date.....

To OP. Sorry if I am teaching you to suck eggs but make sure intonation is spot on first.

I think a small claims court would agree. But and this is the big one, can you be assed to go through all the bull that goes with it?

Wow just Wow Fantastic job Dad3353 first time I have seen results from 3D printing, really good.

@kwmlondon A real credit to Basschat, fantastic deal on GK cab and amazing condition. Brilliant packaging and couriered very quickly. Thank you, it has really fired me up with playing Bass again. It sounds amazing, love it! Dave

Not sure if I actually love it or hate it....... can't afford it for sure though! Now if that toiletseat pickguard turned into a space hopper shape utilising the eyes at the 24th fret, two horns and teeth between the pickups that sure would make me smile.

Couldn't find the reference I see about corrosion. With the comment about incorrect drying from Dad3353 it would make sense for acids in sappy wood to corrode. I stand by my experience on Basswood being powdery on 2 of my guitars (6 strings) and try to avoid doweling/plugging oversize holes. https://cdn.intechopen.com/pdfs/46241.pdf is an interesting read regarding corrosion on mostly treated timbers. Possibly applicable to under seasoned wood in guitars also. I wonder if the fixing corrosion issue I see posted were galvanised (zinc plated) fastners? Sorry OP for going off topic and surprised how heavy it is with a Basswood body as my 6 string Basswoods are so much lighter than anything else I own and seems to be a glorified Balsa wood ( a bit extreme but I hope you know what I mean).

Basswood always seemed very soft (dents) and I ended up using drywall screws as much better grip than standard woodwork screws that seem to turn the wood to Dust with poor grip. I might be way off here, thought I read that Basswood is corrosive to steel fixings? just thinking about long term viability?
