  1. New bass arrived earlier. In the gig bag there was a set of used strings - round would with red silks. They look alright but no guarantees. Free to whoever.... GONE!!
  2. I wonder if there's mush room for negotiation.
  3. I had it in my watch folder - seller reduced by 10%. Interesting looking I thought.
  4. That's actually quite nice looking...are you sure of the weight?
  5. Blues Brothers gave all those near forgotten R&B tracks a new life...
  6. I have two....stupidly priced for what you get. Amazing tonal range, great necks, really nice balance - like many Yamahas, a lot of bass for nut many pennies.
  7. I think the only signature bass I've owned was a Marcus Miller sire - because he actually uses them. Whenever I watch a Scott Devine video I'm disappointed when he doesn't use his sig Overwater.
  8. What month was mine built? 0FP 2075
  9. WOW!!! TRB 5IIf arrived this morning. Beautiful and amazing to play. Came set up with the lowest action on any bass I've ever played and fitted with flat wounds. No wear on the fretboard whatsoever. Though I only had 10mins playing it I was very impressed with the tonal quality...such gorgeous tones. I've experimented with fretless several times but this is inspirational. What do you think??
  10. If you're buying it as an instrument to be played then "No". If you're buying it as a piece of Art then "maybe" - if I had the money to waste.
  11. I've seen some very nice purple basses recently - yours is a corker.
  12. Is purple Flavour of the Month currently, colour-wise? I've seen a few really nice ones.
  13. Ridiculously priced TRB 1006 in Cash Converters, Hayes, London. https://www.cashconverters.co.uk/shop/music-tv--video/musical-instruments/guitars--string-instruments/electric-guitar/046900090239
  14. Yeah, cos you need another one...😉😉
  15. You built it up so much I had to have a listen.... Hated it!! Sorry....proves that life would be boring if we all liked the same things...
  16. Can I propose Bob Marley?? Some of the tunes still feel current/ timeless
  17. I sold a Squier PJ Standard a while back - as you say very versatile - punched well above it's weight in the tone department. The solution for those who want more than a P or a J.
  18. Personally I'd take it all back to natural - especially that black headstock.
  19. I've been thinking about buying one...then not...then again. Still can't decide..
  20. Trick of the light making the two headstock photos look like there's damage to the top edge?
  21. Sorry...not my fault...the "saved" option didn't work.
  22. Ah....reminds me of the Stray Cats song "Better looking every beer".
