    Apologies for the AI slop - but anodized gold is the way to go here
  2. BassApprentice
    Oh maybe it was yours I had seen @ead! Both very cool, and cool to see two different UK builders take on the same bass

    So I saw this on Bass Bros social media the other day and thought it looked amazing. Now sold so some lucky bugger has done well! But then I thought I had seen it before, Google and the Shuker website is proving fairly useless. Did someone here spec it, or even buy it just there?

    Hopefully this is case closed and the bass get returned to either Mark or it's rightful owner - but such a massive hassle. Makes you think driving (if you can) to collect things like this might be easier, even if it is a couple of hundred miles all in.

    I understand it was their instrument so can do what they like. But if I was modifying a £3k bass, I'd make sure I didn't lose any bits! 😅
  6. BassApprentice
    Possibly the most unnecessary experiment in guitar history, but here we are

    It's great to see a fun finish. Don't get me wrong, black and white basses are all well and good, but not exactly much fun. With Sire and Sterling now doing swirl and sparkle finishes, bring on the the fun revolution!
  8. BassApprentice
    That's a belter of a colour combo!

    I look forward to the multi-page discussion about how the Specials are too expensive/reasonable value vs other builders such as Sadowsky, Fodera and the like 😂 I don't doubt the quality of the Sterling range, but everyone seems to be reaching for the top limit. Where's the fun in that 😒
  10. BassApprentice
    Shortly to be followed by the Ernie Ball Sterling Session Series by Sterling by Musicman

    Would seem to be a swing and a miss if they somehow didn't have it ready for NAMM after it being "announced" last year
  12. BassApprentice
    Yamaha turning up to NAMM with no new basses is quite the flex...

    Basically my situation too. Bae money for any of the shiny new stuff, still nice to look 😂
  15. BassApprentice
    Weird that the basses didn't get the redesign that the guitar range got. New colours look great. Although they've done that annoying thing of having the colour on a 4 string model I'd want on the 5 string 😅
  16. BassApprentice
    New MTD Kingston lineup (just new finishes and maybe roasted maple necks?)
  17. BassApprentice
    Conveniently enough, it's also the 50th anniversary of the Corvette Stingray. Missed a trick there.

    It could just be a bit of an illusion, but is the Sona slightly multiscale?
  19. BassApprentice
    Just to bump this to the top for others to see and add to! Any other releases we've missed?
  20. BassApprentice
    These look stunning! Very much aiming at the Rob Allen style of bass. RRP of around €3,500.
  21. BassApprentice
    Nice! Many happy returns! I tried one in a shop which was a bit of a lemon (either battery or bad wiring) so I can't give much input. How's the balance? On the knee it felt a bit headstock heavy due to tiny body and larger headstock.
  22. BassApprentice
    Price Drop - £230 or £250 delivered sound fair?
  23. BassApprentice
    Looks a great starting point - for me I'd go for a L-1000 route. Whilst you have 2 pickups, you can still pickup an Tribute L-2000, so you'd be building a budget L-1000 which you cant get. And if you want to offload that spare pickup - I might be interested 😂
  24. BassApprentice
    Have to say @skelf is doing some great work with these new body shapes. Sure it plays as good as it looks!
  25. BassApprentice
    Ooops! Didn't see that thread after a quick look. Good spot from you though!
