Did I mention Peterbuilt? ? [URL=http://s1354.photobucket.com/user/Karl_Altdorfer/media/1424504_497858850246366_1937115379_n_zps15bea699.jpg.html][IMG]http://i1354.photobucket.com/albums/q693/Karl_Altdorfer/1424504_497858850246366_1937115379_n_zps15bea699.jpg[/IMG][/URL]

[quote name='JazzBassfreak' timestamp='1391437441' post='2357106'] Desperately is right. That thing is lovely! I could swear I was just talking to you Karl XD [/quote] In a parallel universe known as Gumtree! Don't look at Peterbuilt, there are things like Burgundy Mist P's, Sea Foam Jazzes and Jaguars, Pagoda green Cabronita's. Oh, the above jazz is Candy Apple Orange apparently!

Well JBF, I'm desperately trying to avoid getting this from Peterbuilt in Holland. Anybody liking custom Fender colours, made for them, really should avoid!

[quote name='Lozz196' timestamp='1391347038' post='2356004'] The link in Karls original post shows £683 which for a Precision with P/J pickups, and maple fretboard with blocks is I`m sure going to entice a lot of people to part with their cash. I hope I`m sensible enough to resist. [/quote] Won't be that many Lozz. Word seems to be only 100 of each making it out of the good old US of!

Cheers Andy, even I can figure that one Oh, and also available in [URL=http://s1354.photobucket.com/user/Karl_Altdorfer/media/fender-fsr-deluxe-pj-bass-b_zps4a3c6222.jpg.html][IMG]http://i1354.photobucket.com/albums/q693/Karl_Altdorfer/fender-fsr-deluxe-pj-bass-b_zps4a3c6222.jpg[/IMG][/URL]

[quote name='AndyTravis' timestamp='1391266717' post='2355173'] Yeah, got both in my shop yesterday, they're really gorgeous in the flesh. [/quote] Where's that Andy?

[quote name='lou24d53' timestamp='1391266696' post='2355172'] Ahem...your Sadowsky is active! ;-) [/quote] And passive VTC

I had one of the FSR Sea Foam PJ's from 2012. Excellent bass, but sold it, erm, twice. Just not an active sort of bloke. Now they have brought a passive FSR P/J out, in Sea Foam Pearl or Black gloss . The details don't seem to be accurate from Fender, apparently jazz nut and Bad ***11 bridge, not what is stated in the tech spec from Fender . No doubt everybody else saw these months ago and I missed it, so any comments would be appreciated. I know the Sea Foam I had was superbly made.

Was just gonna pm you this one Jon. Band always says my timing is sh*te

Many thanks gents. Not really helping my willpower are you?

No doubt it's been covered, but lets just say I wanted to buy a bass from a luthier in Holland. The bass is, for ease, £1000 inc vat. Delivery is £50 including VAT. What other costs/duties am I likely to get hit with?. I am finding it increasingly harder to resist Peterbuilt's products

That Futurama. I had one as my first bass in 1974. The guy I got it off bought it new in 1967. I paid £10 for it. Once I learned more than 3 notes I realised it was a hideous pile of useless crap. Certainly against it's replacement, a new 1976 Shaftesbury Tele copy. 7 years ago we had yet another house move and I could no longer bear carting that Futurama around. I skipped it
