  1. Would I be right in assuming , as per the original post, that you were in an OAP Country & Western outfit?🤔
  2. I really like the sounds of the Victor Meldrew C&W outfit. As for pointy, I had one of these a while back . Now, would that also suit the Old Codgers?
  3. He did seem to be having a renaissance recently. A friend of mine saw him on tour last year and was blown away. Less impressed with Mr Depp though. He is a bit of a guitar snob though. I've got a real soft spot for his Les Paul tribute show with Imelda May..top notch.
  4. Yes, I was gutted when I got it out the box, I tried to convince myself to warm to it, but couldn't. I had a bit of a plonk and it did sound and feel good though.
  5. Hi , I'm certainly not an expert but have had a 1983 '57 Precision since new. Apart from the domed (?) knobs all seems to be pretty much the same . And , I have say yours does look fantastic 👍
  6. Hi folks ... a very interesting thread .. I also bought one recently and have returned for pretty much the same reasons as Highfox . If the finish was a quite a bit better I'd of been very happy.
  7. Her you go... you just give the bracket a wee squeeze. Seems simple. What could possibly go wrong/?/
  8. Why thank you.. I didn't take them myself though! A blagged a favour from someone who knows what they are doing😉
  9. I recently purchased some of these , and I must say I'd really like them. A bit surprised that the Boss of the house seemed quite happy too! Here's some photos . The Aria hangs in the stairwell and the black P style ( an adapted Harley Benton) one in the diner Here's a link - https://www.woodieshanger.com/ The customer gallery feature mine and other interesting hanging solutions -https://www.woodieshanger.com/gallery/ I must say I'd be more than happy to recommend them Cheers all
  10. I was speaking to a guy at the rehearsal studio we use, he'd just bought and was very pleased with this Harley Benton which is cheaper https://m.thomann.de/gb/harley_benton_b_25m_acoustic_bass.htm He was having a bit of a plonk on it and it certainly sounded the business. He said that he wasn't expecting the high quality for the relatively low cost.
  11. Sounds like there's a newspaper headline in there.. " 69 Year Old 'Super Cool Bass Man' Actually Noticed by Attractive 17 Year Old Girl!"
  12. Personally I've got a PB 50 - very good & doesn't feel/sound like a " cheap" bass. Theres a lot of BC love for Harley Benton - just do a quick search there's quite a few threads
  13. Without wanting to sound like a self righteous tosspot .. I'm most proud of getting involved in the " world famous" BC Bass Relay started by @Jimryan a few years back
  14. MMMh tasty 🍰..Looks good . Out of curiosity what colour is the scratchplate?
