it's somewhere in coventry at the moment. I think in the next day or two i'll be asked to pay my import costs etc, then, i have three precisions!u

Enjoyed it this year. Nathan East was nothing short of inspiring.
The display was a headache wrapped in an earache, if everyone had turned down a bit, everyone could have heard themselves.
Loved the Bacchus gear, and those
Impresse yet bonkers Yamaha BB reissues.
Think having a band near the demo gear a bit short sighted, loopstation and noodling ain't for me really.
May have another try next year, and see if people finally see sense on the loudness front.

There with bells on, think my lot have chucked a bass on for a prize, so i'll be there with my work shirt on...
No stand this year, I can't move 20 basses around with no support!
Oh well, i'd be there, work or not.
See You there Stevie and Co, Andy.

a question i should have asked myself about 12 basses ago...
If it aint broke, dont fix it.

now, as a point, does he mean 'dove tail' as in dove tail joint? If so, i'd say he's very confused, or very mistaken.
Enjoy the basses, don't worry.

Never heard of 'duck tail's.
Is there anything wrong with the necks feel? Does the truss rod function as it should?
If it feels ok, and the truss rod works, i don't see the 'issue'.
Maybe the guy is crackers....er, i mean quackers, f*** me, i ballsed that puchline up...haha.

bump

This is leaving Japan tomorrow! Can't wait, will post photos when i get it!

i'm going to buy one of them i reckon, but i don't want to steal one of the first batch from my punters.

As a side note, the other lads at work are going crazy over the 'biffy' strat.

let me know what you want to do trade wise, i played this again today, it's still amazing.
But i need room for the soon to be growing collection of precision basses.

Wasn't this made for Pat Metheny?

yeah, my Jaydee loves Judy Garland.

bump for Marco, fantastic bass, great guy to deal with.

This is werrry nice, and for a fifty year old Fender none too shabby.
I like it. Luckily. £9k short.

i'm after the covers and a white p.g. If anyone has them spare from a reissue?
I'm going to run an order into fender...on Monday.

Now answer me this.
White, Parchment or mint green for the p.g?

dear oh dear, got a few bills to sort on Monday, if this is still here by then, i'd be shocked, but i'll be in touch.

My brain is aching.
WTF is it for?!

Winner - Most frustrating thread ever!

Overated gear is all over the show, if ten people like something, there are bound to five who don't!

I want to post my opinion here, without being bummed!

I like some Fenders, i own a good few.
I think the Ashdown, and Ampeg i've tried are sh*te.
Haven't played an Ibanez i've liked recently.

I'll be honest, i know this is a bit of fun, but i don't mind that some people on here would hate my gear, i'm sure their 6 string, headless, fretless, 36v circuit, spalted maple/graphite combo would sh*t on my afternoon.
I could probably play it without any worries, but i wouldn't want to be the subject of other musicians jokes.

Someone moaned earlier on here 'people who don't like 5's and 6's can't play or afford them'. I think there are cheap versions mate, an i'm sure most competant players would manage the 'extra' stuff without worry.
Trust me, i've heard very expensive sixers owned and played by some of the worst players. Get a grip.

Anyhow, my dads bigger than yours, ner.

Etienne bought my Epi Jack Casady. And i've tried plenty of semi basses, this was the best, full stop for 'off the peg'.
Intrigued by the Warwick star bass.
I do wish Gibson would do an eb2d with a 34 scale though.
It seems one of the 'originators' has lost grip on the bass gear recently.
One day i want a 1990's eb650 or eb750 pure dirt.

Cheers Rich!

best of luck with that mate.

i'll buy your fretless jazz to do the swap it! Aaaaaaarrrrgh! Lol

Does this remind anyone of the scene in 40 year old virgin in the ebay store when the big lad out of Superbad just really wants to buy the platform boots?
Anyhow, Fender Japan have stopped making these, so, we can't all have one.
Ishibashi are going to email me whenever they get one.

unsure of the specifics.
The 'baskets' i.e. The gob cover bit are £15, so anything other part than that is bound to be even crazier...

i've also got a squier bridge...trade you?

Sorry........
