NickD Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 Hope for those counting the days... I got my sofa shot this morning, about 4 weeks ahead of schedule. Just my luck!

Woodinblack Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 Nice, mine will be sort of like that pickupwise, but in an elwood with a thinner neck. And a lot more red. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If this plays as expected I hope to get down to just these 2, covering everything I do... well maybe a fretless down the line... y'know... just because...

[/quote] I already sorted my Jazz with precision body/neck requirements... but a 5-string Stingray type of bass with 19mm spacing is still an attractive proposition. A Jake 5 as a base sounds too damn attractive. Hmmm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cato Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 I saw that earlier today. Looks like they've only got two new ones. Maybe they're dipping a toe in the water before deciding whether or not to start stocking a few more? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
