El_JimBob Posted May 31, 2017 Share Posted May 31, 2017 Quick question - have you guys used any particular method that you'd recommend to wire Adrian a deposit, or just regular bank transfer? Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

El_JimBob Posted May 31, 2017 Share Posted May 31, 2017 Money sent. That was super easy, thanks for the recommendation. Custom Jazzus 5 ordered Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fisheth Posted May 31, 2017 Share Posted May 31, 2017 Transferwise is an ace thing too use, I use the app on my phone to transfer money to Adrian. Very quick and highly recommended. Had an email regarding the back of mine, I don't think it'll be that far off, give or take a couple of weeks. Which is good as my band is going into the studio soon!

[/quote] Ah, I see you're a G&L player, too - I fell in love with the Jazzus shape as the shallow upper body taper reminds me a lot of the old G&L body shape. Specs-wise, I've gone for a chambered ash body with burl maple top. Twin MM pickups in the L2000 position, Noll 2-band EQ, birdseye maple fingerboard, slightly wider nut (48mm) and 19mm string spacing. Hipshot hardware and luminlay on the side of the neck (because why not!?) Cannot wait Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BassApprentice Posted June 1, 2017 Share Posted June 1, 2017 That sounds like a belter of a build! Looking forward to seeing the finished product, and also how it sounds regarding the G&L comparison. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Yup, I think you did. A pretty simple medium scale Elwood in Candy Cola that I got a quote for about a year ago has gone up over £200. Like you say though, still very reasonable for that kind of instrument when you think what others charge for very similar things, factor in the arguably very quick build time too compared to most luthiers and the price is even better! I'm pretty sure a big chunk of the increase will be thanks to the pound tanking for reasons not worth mentioning on here too, so I imagine Adrian's prices have probably only crept up a little if at all from his end.
