  1. This is probably my perfect bass! It's way out of my price range though
  2. Be warned the rod is quite a way in.
  3. I'd also recommend Greene Kings Vintage Tony Butler.
  4. Also where did you get the tort plate from?
  5. I bought my mint standard Bob Glaub with the Fralin pickup for £550 6 months ago.
  6. You want a Lakland
  7. cocco

    SOLD

    Tht video is making me loose the will to live.
  8. Sweet! I did a similar thing to one of these, then found it impossible to play with the covers on. It was so good
  9. Temptation!
  10. I played one of these in a shop about 10 years ago, loved it so I ordered the 5 string, hated that so I sold it. Should really have bought the 4. Gorgeous bass
  11. I need this bass in my life
  12. I like them, but they don't look like £1600 basses in my opinion.
  13. [quote name='discreet' timestamp='1381313079' post='2237273'] You could always try a Blacktop Jazz... and I quite like the idea of a J with a P pickup. Neck still too narrow, though! Has anyone got a J body with a P neck..? I could go with that. [/quote] Timmy C from RATM and audioslave had a cool bitsa jazz with a p neck.
  14. I agree with Sam. I don't think I've ever been happy with a bass straight out of the box, especially ones that are anything to do with fender. It'll all be fine.
  15. [quote name='tredders' timestamp='1380878236' post='2231745'] You have it now? It's a beaut. The CIJ 70's P bass was traded for a Jack Casady, which in turn I traded (with a Mike Dirnt P bass) for a MM Big Al. I then sold that, and bought back Casady, which I've subsequently sold again! It would be quicker for me just to throw money down a drain, I think. Apologies to the OP for going off topic. I would love this bass - always wanted to try a US Bob Glaub and it's a great colour, too. [/quote] I've had a similar experience. I traded your Club bass for a 51RI, which I traded for a modded classic series 50s p, which I then traded for a status Matrix, which I sold to buy your Bob Glaub from another Mark. I haven't spent any more money though happily it's the sun burst one with a rosewood board and mint p/g.
  16. I wish I could afford/justify this
  17. [quote name='Bassmonkey' timestamp='1380881316' post='2231811'] Cocco - they are pretty weighty, tons of sustain and the Gibson pickups are incredibly loud despite being passive. It is possible to get a pretty wide range of tone using the different pickup selections but I think they give a really nice even volume level on all 4 strings (rather than some basses which I think are loud on E & A but less so on D & G). You should have a dabble. Andy [/quote] I think I will! I'm also dying to play the EB13 and the reverse T-bird. I had a Grabber which I really regret selling. Gibson GAS is taking hold again.
  18. That's gorgeous. How does it compare to the other way up T-bird playability wise? I'm tempted by the Pelham blue one, but then I'm also tempted by a Les Paul bass.
  19. Isn't this what last years closet classic custom shop was?
  20. I'm a big fan of gibson basses, never come into contact with a les Paul, though I've always fancied one.
  21. [quote name='tredders' timestamp='1378918827' post='2206537'] I have [b]very[/b] serious GAS for this bass... One of my 'really wish I'd never sold that' basses was a Bob Glaub Skyline, and it was amazing. I can only imagine how good the US one is like. Looks round to see what could be sold.... [/quote] That one now resides with me. It's a great bass! Do you still have my old CIJ 70s p ?
