If that box stays sealed, the teasing will be even more strongly felt at NJ’s end (sounds rude, wasn’t meant to be). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adee Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 Looks suspiciously like an EUB !? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Velarian Posted September 18, 2021 Share Posted September 18, 2021 Have you tried shaking it yet to hear what rattles inside? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meterman Posted September 18, 2021 Share Posted September 18, 2021 Is it a Burns Flyte? A Burns Flyte that’s been converted to fretless and refinished in silver sparkle? If it is, and you don’t get on with it could I possibly have first dibs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My wife had been pestering me into playing an upright at some point, then suggested my birthday. My mother-in-law is chipping in too. I've only ever played one on two occasions, 30 years apart. How hard can it be, eh? 😂 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My missus keeps suggesting it to me, like they are exactly the same instruments “they are all basses, and you like jazz” 🤦🏻♂️😂 Happy birthday for Dec 1st 🥳 Edited September 19, 2021 by bassfan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndyTravis Posted September 19, 2021 Share Posted September 19, 2021 Has it been checked and resealed? Just thinking it’d be a nightmare to Wait and find any shipping niggles…and then it’s been 6 months and the shop won’t take it back etc… 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gothic Posted September 20, 2021 Share Posted September 20, 2021 I'd tear through that like a hungry wildcat. Not big on patience... 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spent about an hour catching up with Barry and Chris; Barry understands the circumstances and said if there's any issues (unlikely), they'll swap it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
