  1. "You heard it wrong. Those were the right notes."
  2. I've a 61mm-width one which would need the headstock shaping (it's a paddle). That might suit.
  3. Hm. I may have a use for a defretted Peavey neck. Possible three-way trade here?
  4. You could always put some cyanoacrylate on the excess finish in the bridge recess, to see if it causes blooming
  5. Nice, though I have my doubts about the look of the headstock - I think it's the central dark wood, makes it look a bit like the Kramer split aluminium ones. Where are you based?
  6. It's a bit on the black side for me, but that's just me being traditional (I like wood ). I should think it's really, really nice to play. Not in my reach, I fear.
  7. I've had a think, and all I can really do is give your thread a free bump. Good luck with your sale!
  8. I was, but that's quite a long time ago, and I found one. Someone else, I guess.
  9. That shouldn't be around long. Sorry to hear of the surprise. GLWTS!
  10. These are lovely. I've got an orange one and a fretless (reboarded) in blue; my favourite basses. Nylon-wound strings go well on them Why Yamaha stopped building them I've no idea.
  11. One picture, for $4500 BIN... people are weird.
  12. [quote name='taunton-hobbit' timestamp='1501948154' post='3348433'] Long time no bump............ [/quote] That must mean there's some sort of problem...
  13. [quote name='BigRedX' timestamp='1501753549' post='3347081'] I think you are supposed to rest the section with the controls on your leg classical guitar style. [/quote] Ah, OK. I can sort of see how that might work. Thanks.
  14. I dislike Flying Vs quite a lot. Oddly, that doesn't seem quite as objectionable, somehow. I have no idea why. It does look a lot like a pair of tongs; I'm sure some people would like to see it put in a fire
  15. That bridge design... I begin to see why a lot of people don't like Rics much.
  16. hi Marc - hoping all's well with you. Can you bow it, or is the bridge flat?
  17. Only one pic, for a bass priced north of 3 grand? Seems odd.
  18. Blimey. I'm not sure whether that's silly, awful or the best thing since sliced hard-boiled egg. It looks properly uncomfortable to play sitting down though.
  19. [quote name='fftc' timestamp='1501587023' post='3345677'] I thought he meant blues! [/quote] Whoops... sorry about that
  20. I bought strings from Cameron. All very quick and simple, and I'd be pleased to trade again. Thanks
  21. Thank you for your replies.
