I'd never dare gig it

I'll be in Bristol some time in February. :whistles nonchalantly:

It does dive a little, but nothing dramatic and nothing my right hand doesn't deal with just from being in playing position. I don't have any trouble with it. I was pleased when I came up with the name

Hm... Octave pedal?

Yeah, the colour isn't for everybody Thanks for your good wishes, and good luck with your resolution :snickers:

This is an unique bitsa originally built by BCer hamfist. It's a nice bass in its own right, but it's also an excellent pickup-tester, having been routed for various pickups and with an extra P-J scratchplate. The components are: - Westone body, hand-painted green, extensively routed under the scratchplate. - No-name humbucker; I don't know where it came from. - Many controls and switches. At present it's passive and only two of them do anything. It's routed and wired for a battery, but the current setup is passive. - J+D jazz-type neck, maple board, blocks and bound. - Custom scratchplate; it also comes with another, cut for P-J pickup arrangement. I've been calling it a Hamstone. Mostly I'm playing fretless these days, and it's not getting the love it deserves. £100, plus carriage at cost; it will come in a cheap+nasty gigbag, adequate to ensure it doesn't get scratched in transit. (I can pack basses properly, as a look at my feedback will tell you.) But I'd rather meet/deliver, if possible.

Damn. It's a good job that's not fretless...

No, I think the record is something like 37 minutes.

That's a very tasteful sunburst. Nice!
