  1. I've seen worse relicing ( is that how it's spelt?), to be fair.
  2. So, if you bought the 10 string Alembic AND the 3 string Stingray, on average you would have, well, a lot less money.
  3. https://reverb.com/uk/item/83363525-fender-jazz-bass-1965-all-original-w-a-beautiful-sonic-blue-refinish-ready-for-its-next-gig Another one of Schrödinger's basses... simultaneously all original AND refinished.
  4. Well he does say in the description that it needs tuning. That obviously brings the value down quite considerably.
  5. One of the highlights on iPlayer for me was discovering Psychedelic Porn Crumpet. Possibly the best band name in history and they turned out to be superb.

  7. Should be a pencil date according to VintageBassworld.com: http://vintagebassworld.com/imageviewer.php?gallery_name=o1qmqj36 They didn't start using a date stamp until around 1962: http://vintagebassworld.com/imageviewer.php?gallery_name=yp18t1yo
  8. It's the super rare Joe Dart 6 string Telecaster model. You don't see many of those.
  9. Wowch.
  10. Just the thing for opening my unfeasibly large bottles of beer.
  11. https://www.ebay.com/itm/285870580037?itmmeta=01HYMZ3Z58KV2F061XSADWHXMA&hash=item428f36e145%3Ag%3A3H4AAOSws7ZmEaOy&itmprp=enc%3AAQAJAAABACU8IAVf8o5erleAKObzJTiIbi18Dp0otj4i7hdugg9QAwfdiuSAdcVVT26EDsLkRZnemtuKFdN5HGotz1hf4WM%2F5PFIvh8yB6UaaiC0hsa9JqvDpaLlbZ4D7qwmefqnievsF4Qyd1n6PAZ1KIIHA2cvxlvEdVxKb2eMOImATancqcQdHW1XZAgc%2BB1bsceSt80jk7Xc%2BNU1v%2BDVd%2BlDfC%2FvHWlqR6xEHq1LUunQ0y6RCknJqoSZERZNsvnDqgjai9KrulELvvls5V3m1tn0F7v34xyMZIdpl3m5D%2B%2BbKLdYbEq8lIJRViBJqfvLnO4rokX%2FFlDBTYHjOKI2xFNrGmg%3D|tkp%3ABk9SR9zyj5_1Yw
  12. My best mate Ben was the Hammond player in my band many moons ago. There was a rival band at the time whose keyboard player Tim also had a Hammond, albeit a smaller model. I asked Ben what the difference was between them, and he explained that when Rick Wakeman was touring with Yes, he had one of each as part of his stage setup: "He used the one like mine for playing the songs, and the one like Tim's for sticking big knives into."
  13. I bought a bass on Monday, and my wife came with me to pick it up. It felt weird.
  14. Always read the label on your amp head before washing.
  15. Thanks all, that's been helpful. I'll talk to my home insurers first thing, and then go out and buy a big blanket.
  16. Yep, that's me.
  17. Indeed. I believe Toploader themselves are still playing it somewhere as they neglected to write an ending.
  18. Hello, Does anyone have any suggestions for a good company to use to insure my bass gear (or ones to avoid)? I'm not really gigging these days so just for home cover.
  19. That is EXACTLY what happened to my '78 Jazz, in fact I've got a very similar photo somewhere except on mine the block inlay had cracked as well. Jon Shuker did an amazing job of repairing it but I'd lost confidence in it and moved it on soon after. A shame because it was an amazing sounding bass.
  20. Anything by Lewis Crapaldi.
  21. How does that work then, does one lefty = two right handed basses?
  22. Just out of curiosity, how much would your other half be willing to let it go for?
  23. I remember when you bought this strap. I liked it so much I got an identical one for my Jack Casady. Even though my bass is black.
  24. Obviously you've never had to teach my father-in-law how to use a label printer. Or Sky remote.
  25. T ~Dog Customs are back in business. Toby is the grandson of John Diggins and does most of the Jaydee work. He did a sparkle refinish for me and it's superb.
