Nah, it’s old shopfit for pianos that. Have skipped a few of them in my time. I’m a geek, but I’m not that bad

Imagine being a tree blowing in the wind, one day a local lumberjack chops you down… ”ah well, was nice while it lasted - now I will be made into something useful or beautiful by a master of woodwork - to be enjoyed and loved for generations…such is the lifecycle of a natural resource…” imagine that feeling…then you wake up…and you’ve been turned into this. THINK ABOUT IT.

Something from these hallowed pages shall be mine in the next few days. So - if anyone fancies my bb1300, message me for a “special BB Megathread Megadeal…”

These 2 are stunning, shame they’re doing the chopped headstock on the applause ones now…

I’ve been overplaying for 25 years. Nobody’s ever stopped me. Quite enjoyable really.

Yeah, I often think of AC coming home after a gig… ”Hard day at the office dear?” ’not in the least bit taxing love - really chilled, nice and easy’ ”Are we still filthy rich?” ’oh aye, increasingly so my little petal - INCREASINGLY…yurs.’ ”Brandy?” ’Why not…hehehehe’.

Ooh bb3000 next to him?

Could be an early Taiwanese one too - I had a sunburst 86/87 with the square pickups

That’s what concerns me

To be fair a lot of those look ace…

Wow

Well the neck is back - somewhat predictably, @Andyjr1515 has done an amazing job. I’m now totally at a loss where to go. The lust for purple has faded. So, just mulling over what to do. I have enough chrome hardware, and more or less enough gold hardware…

I am a knob. And I didn’t bin any shoes as I dismantled a sideboard in the hallway - convinced that it’d fallen behind a draw.

Well… I knew it was a slim chance - but I seemingly thought it’d be a great idea to post it to @Andyjr1515 along with the neck he fretted for me… Why - I do not know. He’s found it and will be posting it to me. [CLOSE THREAD BECAUSE IM A DUNCE]

I Might go the sunken washer method…how had can it be…

But I paid for them…

Might have to

Either Mrs T has tidied it away…or one of my delightful children has messed with and lost…the neck plate to a Yamaha BB350F. They’re about 10mm longer than a fender one I have spare but a remarkably similar width. Handy. 😒 Am I on a hiding to nothing and just need to redrill or does someone know of a supplier of oddly sized neck plates. Another option is to do the more modern sunken washer x 4 in the body. Im genuinely just piddled off - why can’t stuff be left alone?!

Oh it gets better - I had to show her how to get home after the evening… ”here, this is the a666 (no joke) and I’ll be turning right after this set of traffic lights offer the roundabout, you carry straight on that road into Bolton - use the sat Nav…” ’ok, great’ She followed me for 4 miles with full beams on, we came off the roundabout and I went to turn right. Wound my window down and gave her the hand signal to carry straight on…she stopped and pulled over. Had to get the singer to call her and make sure she got home ok. But I’d done the good deed of getting her on the right road.
