    Well if you want to pretty much finish one then pass it on to me to finish that would be great 😁 These look great and with Mayones etc making tiny basses there is obviously desire for them (mostly from me)

    Nice haul for one week! Have to say if there's one trade deal I'd like the government to sort out it would be free imports from Japan. Everytime I'm looking for a bass on eBay there's an abundance of them in Japan in cooler/rare finishes 😅

    Hmmm, slight oversight on the burglary plan @TheGreek 😂 That looks great and is exactly what I imagine when I want a wee bass next to me on the sofa.

    Jeez, if everyone here had that sort of bass gear as their starting point! 😂 Very nice, enjoy!

    @Kev have you seen this thread? One 5er and 6er bought and reviews seem pretty good!

    On the issue of weight. It would have been really cool to see EB release a short scale Sterling. The shortie seems to be very decent by all accounts but the shrunk body looks a bit weird, granted I haven't seen it in the wood yet!
  8. BassApprentice
    That was exactly my point. Similar to the issue with the custom basses from BITE guitars, why mess with headstocks? I reckon most people would deal with a quirky design/twist to the body and a more reserved headstock design.
  9. BassApprentice
    Schecter seem to be making the right moves with some of their vintage inspired model and this is close, but the headstock. Yeesh. Not the worst but since they have far more standard looking headstocks in their arsenal it just looks odd.

    Hi @mikebass456 Looks like a lovely build but maybe start another topic of your own? Save it getting missed by others who might be interested!

    Very nice find! Going to keep an eye out for one of those in the near future.

    I have GAS for basses but it comes and goes...but I REALLY want one of these little basses. Looks so beautiful and I'm sure will play amazingly too 😍

    Reading @Shylock review of the JC made me have a quick look and see what's available. This ends today: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Epiphone-Jack-Casady-Bass-Metallic-Goldtop-Customised-with-Epiphone-Hardcase/164140665230?hash=item26378bc98e:g:PDAAAOSwkhxedN9t Seems a very fair price for the amount of extras added!

    Now come on, you're telling me I can't build a bass out of this old door with a sanding block and a junior hacksaw? 😅

    Check out Merchant City Music, based in Glasgow. Seems to have a good number of Talmans in stock but not that exact colour - could be that's last years colour? Give them an email and see. https://www.guitar.co.uk/guitars/bass/4-string?dir=asc&order=price

    Sitting listening to The Police and remember trying one of the Sting signature models years ago when I was too young to appreciate it. Can't remember seeing one for sale or anyone posting about them so just wondering what the general opinion of them is. Are they just a simple 50's P Bass with his signature slapped on the 12th fret?

    Found a picture of my old bass and now I want it back...I know who has it.

     

    Bugger.

      I tried that with an old bass of mine Luke. Understandably, the guy who bought it from me knew how good it was and couldn’t bare to part with it.

      I am still trying to trace an old P bass of mine that is apparently in a studio somewhere in Suffolk / Essex!

    Just watched the first 5 of these. What a lovely man he seems and I am SO envious of his technique. Making his bass and amp do the work rather than his fingers. Would love to be able to train myself to do that.

    Not had that issue but maybe try buying from a different device?

    Just signed up. I'm very much a "pick up my bass and noodle for a bit" so hopefully I can get a bit more structure in my practice with this.

    What great looking short scale gang you've got @anzoid Thanks for the review, sounds like they've given the market what it wanted at a reasonable price!
  23. BassApprentice
    Cor, Bass Direct really so have some great Sandbergs in just now http://bassdirect.co.uk/bass_guitar_specialists/Sandberg_TT4_HCA.html?fbclid=IwAR2Pl84G_EzF8JtMg-UjUxE2N4ADUKahRcqlvz_4i-O3GWIutqjOmNujpaM Plus the new Short Scale Lionel.

    Fellow Glasgwegian here! Welcome! It's a great resource and will try it's hardest to separate you from your cash. Looking forward to your contributions!

    Remember that time that GAK said they sent a shipment back due to quality control issues and we said they were liars....😅
