I had a B2a fretless in the 80s which had the first side dot marker on the 4th fret instead of the 3rd. Experimented with tuning a half step down and playing the "non dots" - neither worked. Ended up paying a geeetarist to remark the side dots.

It would be easy if I only bought from here. Very few basses here that I'm interested in buying, though some very nice examples of gear I'd love for nowt. Being an Xmas baby I was forced to buy myself a geeetar as I couldn't find a bass that I wanted.

First cut is the deepest - Rod Stewart

Werewolves in London - Mr Zevon

Knock three times - Tony Christie and Dawn

Couldn't find anything on the website about closing down. https://www.pmtonline.co.uk/stores/portsmouth/

I think Hayseed Dixie beat you to it....

Couldn't be any worse than a reggae band doing Led Zeppelin covers.

Spanish Rose - Aretha

I'd like to see a punk band doing standards...a la Sid and "My way".

Scary monsters - David Jones

As others have said, sad news. John was an old school gentleman who knew the value of customer service and brand reputation. I bought a single pickup model and after a very friendly conversation with John I sent it off to them for a pickup upgrade. Even though they were really busy with customer builds John managed to squeeze in the pickup upgrade and the bass was back with me in good time. I remember being surprised at the quality of the workmanship done in such a short time. He belongs in the Bass Builders Hall of Fame. A real loss. Email sent to the family.

Don't stop till you get enough - Michael Jackson

Some nice basses there.

Alleyways and Avenues - Tony Christie

Raining men - The Weather Girls Sorry if that was too obvious.

(Double) Diamonds are forever - Shirley Bassey

Hit me with your rhythm stick - no idea...

The recluse - Plan B

Silence is golden - The Tremelos

Just wish they'd have posted a full length photo. https://www.gumtree.com/p/guitar-instrument/vaccaro-kramer-5-string-bass/1471774609 Same sell has this: https://www.gumtree.com/p/guitar-instrument/70s-kramer-bass/1471772794

I do like the transparent BB. Is it as heavy as I think?
