I bought his Ritter gigbag. Good clean simple transaction, no issues. I'd happily deal with him again. Thanks Sean

Just don't put it down on a wooden floor... you'd never find it.

Give the Ibanez GSRM-20 a look. Short scale (28.6"), so very fast and compact; they fit guitar gigbags. They are decently made and finished for the cost, they sound decent, and at £160 or so from Thomann they are not bank-breakers. Just make sure you change the stock strings... eww Thomann links: [url="http://www.thomann.de/gb/ibanez_gsrm20gb_ca.htm"]http://www.thomann.d...gsrm20gb_ca.htm[/url] or [url="http://www.thomann.de/gb/ibanez_gsrm20gb_bk.htm."]http://www.thomann.d...srm20gb_bk.htm.[/url]

I bought Fender-style tuners from Nik. Good deal all around, not a bad word to say. Thanks Nik

The headstock looks like a pinecone on a stick...

That makes marginally more sense to me than a Flying V does... Or at least it looks better.

Makes sense to me... that probably doesn't weigh any more than a T-40. That's worth something, to the right player.

Wow. I don't think I can give any actual help, but kudos to you for taking her on, and to her for trying.

I'm quite pleased that the dong on the back of the body isn't pictured

Someone told me that one of the Joni Mitchell songs with Jaco on it is a twelve-bar... [u]if[/u] you can dig down through the arrangement and ornamentation. I forget which one

I guess the string angle is making a difference to whether the bridge is touching its earth wire. That's the only thing which makes sense to me.

[quote name='muttley' timestamp='1392032687' post='2363740'] No. SR necks are 24 fret long with a slanted pocket. ATK necks are 22 frets long into a standard shape neck pocket. I tried an ATK in a shop a couple of weeks ago. Although my favourite 2 basses have slim necks - one is an older SR400 - I found the ATK still very comfortable to play. In fact I liked it very much but it's [u]very[/u] heavy. [/quote] Thanks

[quote name='TomRichards' timestamp='1392662711' post='2371304'] What do you guys think of my original thought, a pearl white to black burst? [/quote] I think they're ignoring you... That would look good. But do consider the same colours in reverse

I had a VMJFL. It was fine, good value for the money, though mine had been fitted with a Badass II bridge which was definitely better than the BBOT. The Harley Benton modern-style fretless I had before the Squier was not so good, but still worth having. It had a fretted-style nut, though I was too dim to understand why that was a problem till after I'd flogged it...
