  1. One of my basses has a Fender decal, it’s not a Fender neck and I’d like to replace it with one of my own decals. However it’s so well embedded, sand paper isn’t touching it so far. I’m loathed to sand agriculturally, but if I must, I will. I have the correct lacquer to refinish, but… Thought I’d check here first for any tips from team BC first. Thanks for your help.
  2. GONE Ordered some decals with my own wording in 70’s Fender style (Finder Decision Bass), but for some reason the fella put these 2 in the envelope with the order. Anyone want these? I’ll post them out FOC or I’ll bin them. Happy either way. Cheers John
  3. Yeah. It started life as a whole Lexus.
  4. So…… Ruin a cheap, but perfectly functional bass, claim it has been improved then charge 2.5 times the price? That’s like sawing one of Carlton Palmers legs off, selling him to PSG for 200 million on the basis that he is now “improved, lightweight and streamlined”. The guy is delusional at best.
  5. Finally put a fretted P together to go with my fretless PJ G&B Ash body (very light) Unknown neck but bleedin’ lovely 42.5mm nut (same as fretless) Schaller machineheads Custom matt black scratchplate Nice vintage bridge CTS pots/orange drop cap Pup is a Wilkinson but I’m changing that for either a Di marzio or a Tonerider to match the fretless. Fretless has an Ash body Unknown neck (ignore Jazz decal, it’s a 43 mm nut) tonerider PJ pups series parallel pull on volume Lovely players, nice low action for my light touch. Here’s the 2 siblings.
  6. Wow that’s a huge amount of bass for your money!
  7. Yes, this one is a duplicate of the original. It’s the Encore version.
  8. Bought some machineheads off Paul. Great guy, super quick delivery too. cheers, John
  9. You can’t, I’ve got your coat! 🧥
  10. There’s a glitch in the matrix
  11. Only take Bitcoin Dan. Or is it Buttcoin? Oh hold on that was another life….and in my defence I was trying to pay my way through college. Plus it wasn’t a real sheep anyway..
  12. Realised I am going to be the 2nd most hated person on BC after that last statement 😂
  13. It is an instrument. Maybe I should have done some research. Got it for next to nothing.
  14. In people’s experience is it a “good” sign on eBay to have lots of messages early on in a listing asking for BIN, hundreds of watchers, and loads of bidders with 24 hours still to go? Never had that before. I thought what I was selling was just an old thing that I never used and was going to scrap. Weird.

  18. Rather like this. He’s a funky chap.
  19. Really liked that. Thanks for sharing.
  20. Oooh nice. Still here Thursday I’ll take ‘em. John
  21. My first impression was Frank Spencer. I soon progresses on to David Frost and hit the heights with (and I quote) “a stunning impression of Kev the milkman”, or “dad” as he was known on our street. Again, great thread.
  22. At last! A post on here that makes sense. Thanks 😊
  23. Yup, just in case one breaks. Very wise.
