Ok, I have two. A rather nice Rob Allen MB-2 and a lovely PJ which I aquired from @Beedster earlier this year. Oh and a DB, that's enough for now 😉.

Ok, two days in now. I'm loving this bass. I do like a Stingray though. Could well be a 2012 CAR 2 EQ up for sale in the new year. Regarding the price of the Pino, I've moved a couple of redundant basses lately which have covered the cost of my purchase. All is good 👍

Sold a Cali76 to Ian Immediate payment, flawless transaction. Deal with confidence 👌 Cheers Ian 🍻

Oh, I managed to run myself over whilst carrying out an emissions test (MOT) on an automatic vehicle which I had left in reverse gear (auto parking brake). Driver's door open, floored the accelerator, it hurt a bit 😳. Back on track. ParcelForce did their best to destroy the bass. It survived thankfully.

Well, after weeks of deliberation I finally caved and have absolutely no regrets. MusicMan Pino fretted signature (I have enough fretless basses). This sounds immense with the flats, probably pop some rounds at some point. It is an expensive piece of kit but I can justify it. Cracking bass 👍.

Suffice to say, we now have a quality drummer on board 👌

I nearly had to cancel last nights gig due to the drummer messaging me to inform me that he had no drums * 🙄. Anyway, a few phone calls later, I'd got a pro drum tutor on board. This guy is probably one of the best that I have had the pleasure to play with. Cracking gig, three piece blues / rock trio, local pub. * Drum kit in loft, loft hatch won't open. Joiner didn't turn up due to illness, err ok.

Nowt wrong with that 👍

Bought a really nice piece of kit from Emmett (Jad Freer Capo). Absolute pleasure to deal with. Thanks Emmett 👍

Sold a Thumpinator to Gary. Super quick transaction & a pleasure to deal with. Cheers Gary 🍻

Interesting read, cheers. I gigged the Bongo last night. Sounded great and attracted very favorable comments 👌

Martin bought my TE Elf. Faultless transaction and informed me of its safe arrival. Thanks again Martin 👍

Ok, I popped a set of TI flats on the jazz and despite the state of the frets, it plays and sounds absolutely sublime. Just needs a minor setup to suit myself, otherwise I'll leave it at that. The chap who I bought it from, acquired it 20yrs ago. Never gigged during that time. Howard Livett, the original owner bought it new when he was 16yrs old apparently. When I clapped eyes on this, it was a no brainer 🙂.

Tbh, the frets are knackered but I'm fitting some new flats later on tonight and see how it plays. A great deal as well 😎

Maybe, I just saw a fleck of red under the refinish. I'll pop some more photos up tomorrow

Another moment of madness, never mind. A November '63 Jazz. Refin at some point in early '70s. I believe it could have been CAR originally. Apart from that all looks good. I had it taken apart to confirm (photos to follow later on this week). Rusty strings, frets aren't great, sounds superb plus some provenance.

Loved 10cc back in the day. The performance from what is the current GG band was excellent. Scarborough Spa theater early this year 👍
