[quote name='xilddx' timestamp='1394295233' post='2390005'] Eh mate? Do I not agree with you often then? Most of those basses you dribble over in Basses For Sale are the exact ones I would have chosen. You have great taste in bass aesthetics.

Bloody Hell, xilddx and discreet agreeing with me. I must kill myself before I wake up

Was hoping mine would arrive yesterday. Photo up when it does.

Thanks guys. A punter took that photo in [s]BurkeandHare [/s]Birkenhead last Sat night. The lights and black plate make it look dang purdy. Sorry for thread derail. Oh, and no plectrums used in this, I was finger picking the start of Afraid To Shoot Strangers.

For me, last of the slow numbers about 5th into 2nd set. Start really building it up from there. Numbers that are considered weaker, or generally not working, look to replace with new numbers. Try some different stuff, can be surprised at what works. We do a Saxon medley which for me is brain death boring yet most places the punters love it. Beginning and last 3 or 4 numbers of first set are vital. Last thing you need is people walking out between first and second sets. Those numbers need to be REALLY strong.

[/quote] Meaning? I will probably be doing an umbrella impression on that rainy day.. It will look nice next to Sunset Orange.

[quote name='tom1946' timestamp='1394035379' post='2387187'] I have one that I bought not long ago on here and put it away for a rainy day, it's as new. [/quote]

The Tokai/Rockinbetter nonsense was started by salespeople/marketers who dealt with Tokai and bought in Rockinbetters, putting it out on the net that they were made by Tokai. It became "internet fact". It is cobblers. That is how that bollocks started. SOME Rockinbetters were made in the same Chinese factory as SOME Tokais, eg the Thunderbirds. As the man from Tokai said, "if it ain't got Tokai on it, it ain't a Tokai". Erm, unless it's been modded. Tokai have never made Rockinbetters!!!!!! End of!!!!!!

Interesting video, wonder what our friend would have to say about the irreverently nicknamed Chickenbacker. It's a Bass Collection/ Rockinbetter kinda thing.

Fedora, we all adore a Fedora, a boogie boogie boogie boogie.

Not up there with a Fodera, but many would happily use one, especially with a decent (subjective ) amp. [url="http://www.theguitaremporium.com/Fender-Japan-PB62-FJ-PB62.htm"]Fender® Japan PB62[/url]

Get one off here fella, simple as that. If there isn't one available WAIT, there will be before long.

There's also one at that place in Wetherby. That, and the MBL one are both advertised as new, pretty impressive for 3 year old basses! Got to be worth pestering for a good discount. A few used ones have come up on t'Bay and have gone from a very nice £650 to about £800. Good luck,

Anodised gold

Done and done. Good luck!
