A return to Ash towers occurred last night, necessitated by the need to hand over my SB14 to Ash in exchange for some bass vouchers. Why not a P you ask, and indeed this is a fair question. I can only assume that the impact of Ash's current much diminished P bass stock had adversely affected his judgement. I understand therapy is now happening and that normal service will resume in due course. It was, as ever, a completely painless and excellent transaction.

Bumping just in case...

Pretty much the first thing I did. What is weird is that in the past I've had quite a few things from BD and have exchanged emails (and phone calls) with Mark using the exact same email address as the order acknowledgements apparently come from so the address is known to be a trusted source to my email account.

Still heard nothing a further 29 hours later. I've had a read of the posts saying just phone which is fine if someone picks up, however I have a busy working life so I can't spend hours waiting. I'd also point out that I'm the customer so why is it my problem. If you can't support the service then surely just don't offer it.

Of course it is, silly me. Rookie error right there.

I bought a bass and paid for it this morning via the website. 14 hours later I am yet to receive even an order acknowledgement email which is disappointing to say the least.

Excellent score. Key missing fact; which of the two has more heft?

+1 to most of the above, Will is a top bloke.

When I first registered on the forum in 1853 I had no idea of the subsequent importance of a forum alias so just my initials.

Any time that I opened a link it just opened a new tab.

I've spent a bit of time on the configurator and decided to save a couple of designs for a potential purchase. I set up the account as requested (took ages to get the email link) and then tried to save the two options. I have no idea whether it worked and I can't actually see where they maybe saved in the first place. Not very inspiring and does rather put me off ordering anything to be honest. The website not too great either in terms of navigating and then logging out of and closing the many tabs that seem to open each session. Is this just me being a muppet?

Mine seems to work fine?

Unfortunately I'm one of the OCD folks that clears it out every so often, so 2014 is long gone now.

Thanks for checking this, he was the guy I tried, but I will try him again just in case.

I sold it in May 2014 but I can't recollect who too. I had swapped out the passive electronics for an Audere 4-band EQ which is what you can see in the pics above compared to the pics on the ACG website. It was one of Alan's relatively early Graft series: https://acguitars.co.uk/project/g019-j-type-fretless-4/ What was special about it? It was just a great fretless bass and the one I played at the first gig I ever did with a fretless bass only. Sadly, I had to part with it as well as a few others during a period of unemployment. I pretty sure that I did contact the person I sold it to a few years later when I had the means to buy it back again but it had already moved on again since then.

I'm tryingi to track down two ACGs that I used to own. One has been found, however I'm still keen to find this one. Happy to pay a decent and fair prce to recover it. Thanks for looking.

Just been to see the show at The Met in Bury and had a great. Highly recommended if you liked the Paul Simon album.

I seem to have settled around the £500 to £600 for a workhorse gigging bass. Lots of choice in this bracket and just seems to work for me. I have a couple of expensive ones for my own pleasure mostly.

Indeed. We are already in touch thanks.

Someone on here has asked for a few of the items which is great. List amended accordigly.

Nobody has mentioned All Right Now yet, amazing. I left my last covers band because a goodly number of tunes already listed (and ARN) were on the set list. Mostly in a decent originals band but I do play in a covers band occasionally with a female singer so doing more interesting tunes now. Also fair to say that one man's meat is another man's poison. We will never all like the same things, which is good.
