  1. Just like in Glastonbury earlier this year, that bass player in Rick's band is great..what fills, what a sound....
  2. A fretless interpretation of a Bee Gees song on my fretless Zon..
  3. If this would have been in Belgium this would have been sold to me but with exchange rates and Brexit..it's a different story. One of those instruments I always wanted to have ever since I heard Grainger with it, they sound like a bass should sound to me.
  4. Years ago I got a phone call from X legged Sally but I told them that they had to get Paul for the job (he's not only an excellent luthier but he played far better than me). Luckily for them they did..
  5. Bought this bass from him couple of years ago... great bass to play.
  6. Like I mentionned in another fretless ad : people never seem to photograph the side of the neck where the dots are...I wonder how they are positioned, thx ! I have the same bass but with "normal" positions..
  7. This 1987 Supernatural arrived this week from France.. A bit of noodling and a more "normal" sound for the Abba song :-)
  8. My Zon has this sort of solution, ideal for me...
  9. Have you got any pictures of the dots aside the neck ? It's weird but everytime people sell fretless basses they take a thousand pictures of everything but never of the side of the neck..(sorry for asking but I can't play on basses with dots instead of lines). Thanks !
  10. I heard somewhere that Jones gets around a million dollars every tour....
  11. If this were in Europe I would buy this in a minute but the extra taxes etc make it hard.. I have actually the same model since a long time but I would fancy another one..I was very lucky to find one really cheap around here in Belgium at 20 miles from my home. I have owned around 280 basses (from Wal to Zon to Alembic) but this would be my main bass if I had to choose one for life.. Good luck with the sale !
  12. I think I have seen at least ten basses I would love to buy (like that beautiful Carvin fretless or a lovely Smith) but unfortunately the taxes and the whole hassle turned me away.. I bought a lot of fantastic basses around here and had excellent transactions with everyone..it's a pity that has changed which has nothing to do with the members themselves naturally..
  13. I was and am a bit curious if there is a change in sales or offers here on Bass chat after the new policy regarding shipment or sales to Europe... Has it had an influence on the people buying basses around here ? Do British music shops feel that Europeans buy less because of the import tax or the paperwork which has to be done or did everything stay the same ? Not that I want to start a discussion about Brexit...I am just curious if other basschatters have certain views on how this has affected their GAS ? If I speak for myself it has had a huge affect on buying basses around here because in the back of my head not only the calculator pound/euro is working and the costs for shipment but also the calculator import tax etc.. My enthusiasm of seeing certain basses around here has changed a bit because I know that there are extra costs so I buy less than I used to... Any other views from fellow "Europeans" but also the British themselves about buying basses since this change ? Thanks for any opinion (and sorry for any mistakes in my English)
  14. His other videos are also mindblowing..never heard of him before but whàt a player ..
