What basses were on the scene in 1946?

It's on my wall and I keep lookig at it. it's a thing of beauty is't it? Still trying to get used to the tones, it's very different to my G&L. Cracking bass though but you know that already [quote name='TRBboy' post='1154284' date='Mar 8 2011, 07:05 PM']I've regretted selling basses on many occasions. Trouble is, unlike when I was younger and had no responsibilities, I now have to operate a strict 'one in one out' policy. So if there's a bass I really want I have to sell something first to fund it. Worst mistake I made was hastily part-exing my 5-string Warwick thumb, for a used, 4-string, base model, Warwick Corvette. The shop offered me a straight swap and I took it! Idiot......... I'm already regretting selling my TRB1004 to Tom (and he only received it yesterday!).[/quote]

I have 2 G&L -L 2000's and lusted after the 'ultimate' USA model. Well I got one and was disappointed as hell. My Trib's are far better imo.

I've phoned all of the local stores without any success. If I can track one down they may be able to transfer it to my local shop. I could drive to pick it up if it wasn't too far.

Could ship to you for about £13. + the cost of the bass £60 Just if you don't get fixed up regards, Tom.

In defence of Mr Wazoo I have changed the wiring on a Squier that had plastic covered wire and small pots and while it didn't make the earth shake the progression of the volume and tone was much more evenly spread, not 'on or off' like the original. What does the capacitor do? How necessary is it?

Chris just bought my Wireless kit, fast payment, great comms. Absolute pleasure to deal with. Thanks mate. Tom.

I don't like red guitars, but then I was supposed to not like P-basses either Now I think a red P-bass with tortoiseshell type pickguard and rosewood fingerboard (and I'm a fan of maple) is a very cool looking thing indeed. what happened to me? [/quote] I have a red SR..............

Bought a pickguard from Phil. Great communication, fast delivery and very well packed. Deal with confidence, cheers, Tom.

Wow, that is stunning!!

Why MIM? how on earth can you tell with bad pics?
