Are they Yamaha post it notes?

Now then… Hiding to nothing…here I go. in 2007/8 I bought an Epiphone Jack Casady (Peerless/Korean) in Gold. When Ella (now 15) was born - I hit hard times and ended up selling 12/13 basses. The Casady went to @Etienne who then sold it to @Geddys nose My trail goes cold there. Think that was 10/11 years ago. Now - a long shot as I have no serial number, so I may as well just get a gold one from the mid 2000’s. Does anyone remember buying it off Simon? worth a shot. 🥴🤦🏻‍♂️

I’ll probably have to wait for the fretless to be honest - got a bit to pay out on house/studio and car in next few months. now the blue one is home…I’m ok for jack Casady basses for now

Bought my old Epi Jack Casady from @Grooverjr(Jack) Was honestly brilliant from start to finish - I was awaiting payment from 2 sales to enable me to get funds: he placed the bass on hold and we sorted it all pretty quickly. Then we discussed shipping - honestly, I’ve never seen a bass packed so well. it was delivered headstock down as I discovered when I got the box open. testament to the wrapping - bass is in the same condition as the day it was brand new. Magic - deal in confidence Thanks Jack x

Hehehehehehehe. Ooooh Suits you Sir

Well…this just got more interesting…genuinely think this bass would sound phenomenal as a fretless. not this one but the Jack Casady generally.

Oh god…I’ll never have enough post it notes 😂😂😂

Unsurprisingly…I bought it for a bass I’d just bought, and sold it before the tool arrived.

There’s a handy tool stew Mac make - it’s about £12/£15

They make a difference, wether or not it’s an improvement is a matter of preference/opinion. i think they look better than standard BBOT and fill a bit more space visually… They're just a bit of an iconic thing now aren’t they - synonymous with “pros” who know how to improve things. Now back in mass production via All Parts - should have brought prices down…but seems to have at least levelled them out.

We used to have a photographer like that. Then really standoffish when I saw her about a year after that band had folded. So odd. She wouldn’t know me now, 2 stone and a ginger beard…like Clarke Kent/Superman 🤣

Yeah - I read it twice…both times I wasn’t in a good headspace (break ups…) I think I lent my copy out and have no clue where it is now.

The 2 last with John have been garbage…and believe me, I tried. I know one was an “outtakes/extras” but they were bin-able. Think about 2/3 tracks from the 30+ presented over 2 albums.

The Getaway was a great album. In my opinion.

I think kiedis’ open admissions his Autobiography are pretty much grounds for conviction… he has been done for something, I just can’t recall what. Chad and Flea was something to do with a girl at their gig being pulled out of the audience.

Yeah - I am a dyed in the wool fan. They seem to cop for a fair amount of flak these days. But I really do like them…

Back there on the 30th mate as it was a battle of the bands…and we won 🤣

Day 2, gig 2. Rained heavily while we waited side of stage… then the sun came out as we played. Played really well, big Ashdown house rig - possibly lowest output ever - possibly ohmage issue. Couldn’t get stage volume I needed. My rig would’ve been preferable, but that’s life.

Has anyone used Monty’s relic wax on a fretless board? That seems to really darken anaemic looking Pau Ferro etc

Erm. Brief. Multi band “battle” thing…I know… But, we smashed it - playing a festival tomorrow. Nice little event - about 40-50 folks In a lovely venue. Sound was shocking onstage, but played alright - nice response considering we didn’t really take anyone of ours (as they’re out to see us tomorrow).

Lush bass - enjoy it!

I think Morado that Sadowsky use is honking - had two of those, looked very gingery…

I’ve heard it’s a Hardy wood though…
