hi Muzz,
late reply I know...

this was my previous P bass - a 1959 - black with birds eye maple board!! - bought in Oldham!!
this pic is with original scratchplate:

this is with black scratchplate - and 10 years more wear on the paintwork!!

Hi Mike, it's a small world, but I wouldn't want to paint it. Not even in undercoat. Love that P. Wonder where it went...

The Worry Beads no longer - there's an established American outfit of the same name. We are now This Uneven Sky. Album coming out next month...I may mention it once or twice on here :)


Edit: edited my sig now. :)

Hi Muzz,

will look out for album. best o' luck with it.
I sometimes wonder where the bass went - heard it may have been in bonecat and the neck may have been taken off it - dont know if it was true though.
I traded it to a guy in Burnley.

cheers,

[quote name='Grand Wazoo' post='1347630' date='Aug 21 2011, 10:59 PM']Fender American Standard Precision Bass, 60th year anniversary model 1951-2011

Ash Body with Maple Neck & Fingerboard, neck reinforced with cabon spars, hipshot tuners and hi-mass bridge, can it get any better?
