FinnDave Posted March 30, 2016 Share Posted March 30, 2016 I made the fateful mistake of visiting PMT in Oxford today, and in company of a guitarist friend who loves new kit. Also I was feeling a bit down after a scan had confirmed that I have a damaged/severed tendon in my right hand this morning. Both the above, plus the fact that I have been regretting selling my mex. standard Jazz last year, left me an easy victim. I have been thinking about a black Jazz bass with black scratch plate and maple neck, and the cunning swine had a lovely US standard in black and maple. I was putty in their hands and the little beauty is now mine. The black scratch plate is ordered and on its way! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FinnDave Posted March 30, 2016 Author Share Posted March 30, 2016 Well, I tried but the damn system won't let me upload a pic. Looks like any other modern back Jazz bass with a maple neck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimmySims Posted April 1, 2016 Share Posted April 1, 2016 " I was feeling a bit down after a scan had confirmed that I have a damaged/severed tendon in my right hand this morning. " I'm really sorry to hear you're having tendon issues. Being a paranoid hypochondriac myself, how did this come about and what is the prognosis?

FinnDave Posted April 1, 2016 Author Share Posted April 1, 2016 The severed (torn) tendon is one of the results of a daily nasty motorcycle accident 4 months ago, The doctors assure me it can be fixed, but takes a few weeks of immobility.

bassbiscuits Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 Nice - I've got the same but with a tort plate. I do spend quite a lot of time just gazing at it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
