  1. Here you are https://www.instagram.com/theofficialsting?igsh=MTlpcTk3YTlzejYzYw==
  2. Again another blurry image of the headstock. Can't see a Fender decal in this one so maybe a one-off by a luthier?
  3. Saw a little trailer for the upcoming Sting 3.0 tour and grabbed a screenshot showing Sting using what looks like a new custom Fender. I'm not familiar with him playing this before as usually been his beat up '54 P for years now. This one doesn't look like a vintage P with humbucker but something maybe made to order. I'll leave it to the Fender experts to fill in the details. 😄
  4. Very nice 😎. Liking the side carry handles.
  5. I played one of these when they came out and absolutely loved it. I'm a lefty and flipped it upside down. I decided I wanted something more practical for access to the top end of the neck but was seriously tempted to buy as a studio bass.
  6. Friend of mine has the six string guitar version and says it's fantastic.
  7. I also had one of these without the graphic. 😎 Used it for years at gigs and rehearsals. Mega loud but heavy to move around. Love the sound of Acoustic gear.
  8. Rare has hen's teeth. Doesn't look too shabby. A wee visit to a good luthier and this could be a real winner. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/186138613434?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=gHyWXFJ3Tfm&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=WHATS_APP
  9. All interesting and informative comments. I would say that what I'm lacking with the existing strings is low-end definition. It is a laminated bass. Also, playing-wise on DB I'm a newbie so would prefer lighter tension to help moving around. If this extra info offers up further discussion please weigh in 😎
  10. Anyone out there using Thomastik Superflexible strings? What is the difference between these and say Spirocores? Got a 1/2 upright that needs new strings and Superflexibles are about £40 cheaper.
  11. That's a great deal. I had a Vintage Icon fretless and thought the neck was really nice.
  12. A thing of beauty. Is that hole in the headstock for wall-hanging, a fifth string or just a poor shot? 🤔😄
