    Possibly a bit ambitious?

    I can't sing at all any more. I've sung harmony for as long as I can remember - I find it difficult to sing a melody. I've never been able to sing and play together though. Recently my bandmates have pushed me to sing lead on a couple of songs (knowing they'd have to do without the bass), because I have the best voice of the three of us. Net result, I can't sing either.

    [quote name='Rumple' timestamp='1440407053' post='2850314'] I guess it is a bit 'bling' but I like it. [/quote] Looks like nice work to me. I think you've every right to be pleased. I'd be bl**dy ecstatic if something I'd done came out that well

    I know the name and that's all. I'll explore - thanks to the OP

    [quote name='TheRev' timestamp='1440363690' post='2850167'] I have an Italia Rimini - it has a modern yet 60s sound and styling. I don't play electric bass musch thes days,but when I do, that's the one I pick up, Here: [url="http://www.jhs.co.uk/italia.html"]http://www.jhs.co.uk/italia.html [/url] scroll down tot he bottom of the page. [/quote] What's the neck like on these? I had a Mondial which I'd have kept if the neck had been slimmer.

    [quote name='alyctes' timestamp='1438454917' post='2834666'] Something semi-acoustic. Possibly fretless. (I'd love philw's defretted BEX 4 but I really cannot find the cash...) [/quote] Currently GASsing for money. If you have any, let me know

    I think I might just put it in a skip. Seems a shame, but I can't believe it's overpriced and I haven't got the space.

    [quote name='BigRedX' timestamp='1440323325' post='2849769'] Make that three - unless one of you owns the one I used to have. [/quote] Indeed. Thanks for the info - I've not picked either one up for quite a while.

    I assumed it would be 42mm nut, given the single P pup of the "classic" Blazer.

    Indeed. I have a Duke and an Alien, and both have aluminium necks. (Which I suppose proves only that [u]one[/u] Alien has an aluminium neck... - if I find time I'll dig it out and see if the neck is marked in some way, it's possible that the Alien neck has been replaced with a Duke neck )

    Quite pretty, though it's a bit elaborate for my taste. Also, I am a bit suspicious of that lower horn. I reckon that might be uncomfortable to play sitting.

    [quote name='ahpook' timestamp='1440256544' post='2849405'] I've always been put off by the tales of chunky necks [/quote] Me too. Also, I will never buy any item with "[size=3]SWEEET! LOOOOOOK![/size]" in its title.

    [quote name='Grangur' timestamp='1440218624' post='2849154'] That's fine. Nobody is saying he's a rogue. He may be misguided or mistaken. Or he may know something we don't. [/quote] I just meant he ought to be easy to get hold of if you wanted to ask.

    [quote name='Bassassin' timestamp='1440193433' post='2849073'] Could be, but I don't think it's an Aria, despite the "ghost" logo - or if it is, it's a bitsa of some sort. J. [/quote] Seller is a member here

    Not used them, but I have used Status Hotwires bought direct and that worked well.

    I have a set of Bartolini pickups (P/J) for sale. They were removed from a Satellite P-copy with a seized trussrod. Good condition. The P pup is labelled 8S (scratched into the base, 8S-S and 8S-N on the two parts). The J is scratched 9J-L1 in the same way. Pics here: [url="http://s1295.photobucket.com/user/alyctes/library/Bartolinis?sort=3&page=1&postlogin=true"]http://s1295.photobu...&postlogin=true[/url] Pickups working fine; two screws missing, no boxes. £75 posted in the UK, firm. Edited for labelling. Edited for pics.
