  1. Saw it on talkbass that there are some price drops on the old vintera range in the US. looks like some retailers are doing it here too, not quite as big a discount but not bad.
  2. AI won’t be taking luthier’s jobs anytime soon 😃
  3. I appreciate that, it’s a great deal, for a nice bass, I’m sure someone will snap it up. My Birthday has passed now anyway so it’s harder to justify the purchase ☹️
  4. It’s very kind of you, but I’m honestly not sure when I could manage to fit it in at the moment.
  5. I’ve got a very hectic life and childcare situation, I just can’t spare that sort of time for something hobby related sadly. I’d love to though, 6 hours to myself would be a real treat!
  6. I probably should have done that. I kind of worry that work might not be alright with it.
  7. Sorry, No I wasn’t referring to your post. Just some of the general comments about the genre.
  8. Of course not everyone will like it, slagging off fusion is like shooting fishing in a barrel. It’s for sure not for everyone, it’s very challenging for the ear, but some strange people (like me) actually like it.
  9. very wise. I’m still gassing for it. I looked up the drive, but it’s a 6hr round trip for me ☹️
  10. I’m so sorry to hear this ended up like this. I was the original buyer. I had no idea about the size restrictions at the pick up point. I feel partly responsible but that courier sounds awful.
  11. This is the fender pickup packaging foam, same colour scheme.
  12. Nice bass. Is your mute cut from the foam in the packaging of fender pickups? I use that too.
  13. It’ll be a poly finish probably. I imagine a natural refinish will add a lot of resale value tbh.
  14. Looks like an amazing bass but let down by the confederate flag, gives off bad vibes if you know what I mean.
  15. That is amazing, one of the coolest stingrays I’ve seen! I would love to see the slap playing technique that scuffs the body that far from the strings though, it must be pretty wild.
  16. The standard fender mim p and j replacement necks have headstock TR access. It’s only the Vintera ones that have the old heel type.
  17. I bought a very cheap jazz bass control plate with wiring for a project bass recently and it has exactly the same issue, I couldn’t see anything obviously wrong with the wiring. I’d be interested in what it could be.
  18. Anyone know if these are compatible with fender necks? I’ve been on the lookout for a replacement body for a MIM jazz bass, and bodies seem to be thin on the ground at the moment, and are priced higher than this bass, I love some of these colours so was wondering if they were compatible.
