  1. Wow. (I didn't know about the Kaman connection. Thanks for that. Some of the Kaman helicopter designs are frrrreeeeaky... - but they work!)
  2. Maybe I'm misremembering, I thought these went for £550 or so.
  3. And a quote (seen in the BBC news article): "I always think of the guitar as being part of a larger instrument, which is the band," Gill added. "What I always find uninspiring is when guitarists treat the rest of the band as a background over which they show off."
  4. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Inceni-Zoot-Performer-Bass/114095530830?hash=item1a909fa34e:g:r7gAAOSwFOleNpWY Misnamed in the sale item; might go relatively cheaply as a result.
  5. Hm. Would you sell the fretless neck separately?
  6. Not my thing. (Nor within my budget, as it happens.) It's a bit like going to see my nephew's band - they're really good at what they do, but I'm not a fan of it.
  7. "Yes my love, I posted it on eBay ... "
  8. It looks like a 60s chair back.
  9. Nice. Does the switch ever get moved by accident?
  10. Probably worth closing one of these adverts, since they seem to describe the same bass ... ?
  11. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Rare-Ibanez-RDGR-fretless-active-bass-Complete-with-hardcase/184137021362?hash=item2adf6bf7b2:g:mjgAAOSwfl1eJd6S Claimed to be rare; I wouldn't know; but it looks nice. Might be worth a punt.
  12. Whoa... just as well it's got frets! Good luck with your sale
  13. Hi!

    I sold Kev my Yamaha BB400 fretless. All went well, and I wouldn't hesitate to deal with Kev again.
  15. I'm not sure this is a viable business model, TBH.
  16. I think he sends his shirts to a service.
  17. Nowadays I have one which was modded with an extra P pup at the bridge before I got it (a Wilkinson, IIRC). Gigged it a few times. I want to put a fretless neck on it, which is on my vast list of Stuff I Will Never Get Round To.
  18. Hm. One and a half, usually. This one is self-funding, is a better singer than he thinks, and a really very good rhythm player. The half is not so much fun to be round, but writes. Both of them have gone really quiet recently. To the point I wonder if I've been fired but they are too wimpy to tell me...
  19. One of my guitarists has a Breedlove fretted six-string. Lovely thing.
  20. I grant you I jumped to conclusions. I shall try to be less harsh in my wording. But honestly, I think it's only the wording.
  21. Mm. So, what does it cost to get someone to do the hard work for me? I'm guessing in the £800-1200 bracket.
  22. Hm. I might try defretting the Alien, if I can find the time and enthusiasm - it's not going to be worth selling, probably.
  23. That's a really nice colour
