  1. I'll be in Bristol some time in February. :whistles nonchalantly:
  2. 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
  3. I never liked the Fall much, exactly, but I was always glad they were around. It's not been a good week, has it?
  4. Hm... Octave pedal?
  5. Yeah, the colour isn't for everybody Thanks for your good wishes, and good luck with your resolution :snickers:
  6. 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.
  7. Still for sale at £280, no bids, 13 hours left. Too weird.
  8. Can't be too many of these out there. I have no idea about price, mind. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Original-Shergold-Bass-Guitar-Neck-NOS-fretless-maple-board-unlacquered/273038396678?hash=item3f925b4d06:g:ORMAAOSwXsFaZ7fp https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Original-Shergold-Bass-Guitar-Neck-NOS-24-frets-rosewood-board-unlacquered/273038384622?hash=item3f925b1dee:g:KLYAAOSwryBaZ7Ex
  9. A great shame. He was a hero.
  10. Damn. It's a good job that's not fretless...
  11. I have no idea if this is legit or not, so don't jump at it on my say-so... but that seems cheap for an MIJ Jazz? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Fender-Jazz-Fretless-Made-in-Japan/232635704725?hash=item362a2b2595:g:vOgAAOSw8-FaYant
  12. Seller thinks it's a bass guitar. Curious beast, probably a bitsa/homebuild from a BG body? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/UNUSUAL-UNO-ELECTRIC-BASS-GUITAR/282817952193?hash=item41d94379c1:g:fGcAAOSw8i9aZOuE
  13. Yeah. Definitely possible he's been sold a pup himself.
  14. Too far, but watching anyway...
  15. Seller "may not ship to the UK". So that's something.
  16. No, I think the record is something like 37 minutes.
  17. Reckon. HB Standard.
  18. Nice colour on the Spector
  19. Today's cancelled. Don't know why yet.
  20. That's a very tasteful sunburst. Nice!
  21. This. Except my lad lives with me again, so I had to get the kit out of his room so he could fill it up with his own crap stuff.
  22. I'm guessing that was a feeler, to see whether it got any bites, and will now be relisted for more.
  23. Since I could buy a new one for under £100 delivered, I think this might be a tad greedy ambitious. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Harley-Benton-Deco-Precision-Electric-Bass-Guitar/192433019299?hash=item2ccde6d9a3:g:vP0AAOSwgLlaY1Q~
  24. Thanks chaps... glad to know I'm not completely senile.
