G’wan get it done

Yeah. Works well with maple or rosewood too. Classy.

It was. Was playing 5’s at the time “didn’t need it anymore” 🙄

I had a sunburst one. Would kill to have it again...

I’m sure I’ve said before that I want that bass. Mucky.

Why, what was it? I really should pay more attention...

I reckon that pic is a California series or mexi deluxe series p/j from between 1997-2002

To what?

That white bb5000 is now £750

That’s what I said 😆

Totally misread the post. Yeah, only the 50’s reissues have the “right” spacing for the gold pickguard.

Yeah. Get a drumstick. Saw it to the depth of the cavity. Then split it (saw it) down the middle. A bit of wood glue where there’s no place for the screw to go. Clamp it. Put a cloth between the finished portion of the body and the clamp. Guide hole it...screw in. You could use double sided tape I guess. Robert is your mother’s brother...

Not specifically for slapping, think I sold myself a bit short there - I actually don’t slap much at all anymore, but since owning the ebs cab - it’s got a little more click when I do which means if I am slapping (which occurs every now and then) I don’t have to try as hard 🤣

@marleaux62 looks broken that. I’ll have it and fix it.

Hope it has 🤪

Well, he’s very good at what he does - like me with the Wal thing, £7000 ish, 3 years ish...depends how much you want something

Yeah...hmm

Yeah...hmm

Yeah the chap builds them by hand - pretty cool. I know @LukeFRC is in his queue...but as far as I understand it, you’ll get the bass whenever he’s done and you won’t be getting build diary updates 😂

Another lovely deal with Walshy. He is now the custodian of my Sadowsky. Glad his “chance to try a sadowsky P” came from me, and this one is special. You can already see from previous posts that he’s a good guy. So this is superfluous really. But is definitely deserved.

@fleabag I’d recommend a courier that @walshy uses for anything bass related. The driver who collected a bass from me put it specifically in his cab as a “passenger”.
