pfretrock Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 [quote name='Annoying Twit' timestamp='1447268649' post='2906324'] The page format seems to have changed. I can't see a green in stock or red sold out. EDIT: It's "on request". People who have order those before have received them. [/quote] Got my prog that way. A popup on the Deko page says the following. Presumably the factory do the rejecting and send batches to Thomann, who probably never unbox anything: [color=#a52a2a][b]"on request[/b] Our supplier has not yet provided us with an expected delivery date. Kindly contact us for further thomann information or to see if we have a B-Stock or suitable alternative available."[/color] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Annoying Twit Posted November 13, 2015 Author Share Posted November 13, 2015 (edited) Now there's a four string left handed progressive deko, in addition to the five string. They are now "only a small number..." instead of being "on request". [url="http://www.thomann.de/gb/harley_benton_b_450lh_bk_progressive_deko.htm"]http://www.thomann.d...essive_deko.htm[/url] With the lefty acoustic, the left handed among us are quite well sorted for dekos at the moment. http://www.thomann.de/gb/harley_benton_b_30bk_lh_deko.htm Edited November 13, 2015 by Annoying Twit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Annoying Twit Posted November 15, 2015 Author Share Posted November 15, 2015 No interest? And all three lefties are still available. Have our left handed players left this thread? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andytre Posted November 16, 2015 Share Posted November 16, 2015 i fiinally got and unplayable deko come through a PJ-4 HTR. MASSIVE dead spot on the 1st and 2nd fret on the D and G looks like the neck has a hump just there, but the body is perfect and is missing the D stamp! so gona be looking for a neck. anyone know what the ones on ebay are like that come from china, there about £30! (£10 more than the deko bass but still cheap and come in maple!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Annoying Twit Posted November 16, 2015 Author Share Posted November 16, 2015 You seem to have quite bad luck with necks. Hopefully you'll find a good neck to go with the body. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonesy Posted November 20, 2015 Share Posted November 20, 2015 (edited) I missed out on a Jazz yesterday and am gutted I'll still keep on looking though because I'm keen to get a Jazz and turn it into something like a Troy Van Leeuwen jazzmaster.........but a jazz bass Also.........how does everyone manage to get one of these basses? When I'm on my laptop I only seem to see 4 instruments available and the page never updates, my mobile is the only device that actually see's the new stock. I've tried clearing my cache, but still the page doesn't update.... Edited November 20, 2015 by Jonesy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonesy Posted November 20, 2015 Share Posted November 20, 2015 Hahahaha, sneaky!!! I don't suppose you mind sharing what app you use? I installed page monitor into chrome the other week to see if that'd let me know about any updates, but with no luck =( Just seen that a few of the PJ HTR deluxe's have gone too, damn!!!

Jonesy Posted November 20, 2015 Share Posted November 20, 2015 Wicked! Thanks for the help guys, I've bookmarked the mobile page and set up a few apps in chrome so i get a nudge whenever there is a change to the webpage. Hopefully I'll get my mitts on a deko bass soon and the modding can begin! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andytre Posted November 20, 2015 Share Posted November 20, 2015 Little update on my PJ HTR with the horrible dead spots, put in a new nut and some set up and now it's fully playable, the actions only a little bit higher than I like but it'll do for what I want! Next is to swap out the horrific scratchplate! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

such Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 I missed out, got an email saying that it had been sold already. I'll keep looking, what makes it difficult is that when I'm at work, I can have a good look at my phone maybe twice a day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
