    Etsy UK. Looks like plenty of choice, vintage and repro.

    Sorry, can any of our drummers on here explain the difficulty as I have never encountered a drummer who has thought this was a problem?

    Vitamin Qué?

    Thanks - hadn't spotted that!

    That's much better. Yes, the posthumous hit hardly sounds like a reggae track. Thanks Tony 👍

    Is there an original version of Marley's Iron Lion Zion without all the posthumous production and overdubs? Heard it on the radio today and was amazed by how awful I thought it sounded. Would love to hear Bob's original if it exists.

    I've got to pull some fence posts and large planks of wood from the canal in Tipton tomorrow - any bids from our budding luthiers?
  9. Mykesbass
    You removed it 😎

    Yes, much as I've tried, my left hand always wants to be on a fiver.

    Had this in a trade two years ago, and fabulous as it is, the poor thing hasn't been played, as no matter how many times I think I need another bass I ALWAYS go back to my Shuker, so this has been noodled on a couple of times and then just remained in a case. I believe the see through cherry over mahogany was a limited run, and it looks really great. Previous owner, @BaggyMan has meticulously added a vinyl carbon fibre look wrap over the tort pickguard. I think it looks right on this bass but will easily peel off. There are a couple of tiny nobbles on the headstock, and a couple of faint surface scratches on the back - the one highlighting this was taken with a macro lens. Strung with barely played DR Hi-Beams for extra sparkle - my plan was to have something the complete opposite to my main 5 string, flatwound fretless. Collection from Stourbridge, or could meet up in West Midlands. Don't want to courier as I don't have a spare hard case. Spec from original post: CONSTRUCTION: bolt-on SCALE: 34" PICKUPS: Leo Fender†-designed G&L MFD™ Magnetic Field Design humbucker made in Fullerton, California NECK WOOD: Hard-Rock Maple w/ Maple fingerboard NECK WIDTH AT NUT: 1 1/2" NECK RADIUS: 12" NECK PROFILE: medium C FRETS: 21 medium jumbo, nickel TUNING KEYS: Traditional open-back, BRIDGE: Leo Fender-designed G&L Saddle-Lock ELECTRONICS: 3-way series/split/parallel mini toggle, volume, tone weight: 3.8Kgs

    Only on here could 34 be considered youth 😎

    Not so much just three reviews but they all look like they have been written by a daytime TV funeral insurance advertising copywriter.

    That's a great song to remember him by. Much better tribute than his biggest hit.
  15. Mykesbass
    Loved them on my fretless 5 string precision but the low B went dead before the rest of the set. Gone for Chromes to get just a little more sparkle that can always be rolled off. Tension was fine, really didn't find the hard work.

    Passed through Handsworth today for the first time. Can't believe how much this album currently costs on either CD or vinyl! Island Records reissue it NOW please!
