  1. Gareth sold me some DB bits and bobs. Quick and clean deal, all well. This is the second time we've dealt and I wouldn't hesitate to do so again. Thanks Gareth
  2. Somebody has to, I suppose.
  3. If he can't be bothered to write it, I can't be bothered to read it.
  4. In school I played cello. Stopped that when I was 17 due to other things. I noticed, in my 40s, I'd spent my entire adult life thinking of myself as "musical" without playing a note. A friend of mine had guitar, wanted to play with someone. I knew I wasn't interested in the lead guitar widdling and that I preferred the lower end of the scale. I might have been a rhythm player if I'd tried to learn on an electric, I suppose.
  5. Thanks. I guess it's a thing to cut manufacturing costs, but it's definitely silly.
  6. Thanks for the pics But I should have been more specific, sorry. Are the side dots on the positions where the frets would be? In other words, are they in the right place for fretless play? I've been ambushed by this before, which is why I ask.
  7. Nice. Where are the side dots, please?
  8. Yes. Mind the fretless neck, though. And, "original hard case", I think.
  9. You're not the only one!
  10. What he doesn't know is the number of people (like me) who take one look and go "Why would I want to deal with this guy??!" and avoid him like the plague thereafter.
  11. That seller seems to run a 125% markup on all sales. This item, maybe 250%.
  12. Factory relicing. Will not touch it.
  13. I agree with almost all of that, except that a tort pickguard seems to go very nicely on a blue bass. Weird.
  14. Just down the road from me... but I have two already. And no income.
  15. If I had an income, and space for more basses... ah well. Not this month, and probably not this year..
  16. Or so the seller says; I wouldn't know. Looks interesting. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2007-Roberts-Savage-Pro-bass-with-OHSC-prototype-mint/283823919489?hash=item4215395181:g:qfEAAOSwl0xed6Qy
  17. That looks gorgeous!
  18. I want, but I'm in a new job and not at all sure I'll be staying there...
  19. Back up for the same price yesterday evening.
  20. Great colour
