  1. Secondhand Squier Standards can be found in your budget - you get a PJ configuration in a "classic" style. Can't go wrong. Various Yamahas, Sires, G&Ls and even Bass Collection Nanyos will be available within your price range if you shop around.
  2. I'm surprised with the amount of "looks don't matter" comments TBH. There are lots of basses that I wouldn't be seen dead with, irrespective of how well they play or sound. Test after test has shown that most people can't tell what bass makes what noise - a test at one of the SE Bashes showed that many of us couldn't even identify our own basses. Joe Public certainly can't tell.
  3. The wind cries Mary - James Marshall Hendrix
  4. I don't like Mondays - Boomtown Rats
  5. How does "The Sledge" differ from a bog standard Ray?
  6. Collected the bass earlier. Mal's hands were swollen as a result of arthritis so he's calling it a day. I'm now in a position where I need to either find someone else or have a go myself.
  7. Any credit should go to @Jabba_the_gut. Many BCers will have seen and played some of his creations at Bass Bashes around the country. PM @Frank Blank for photos of the TWO he has. Just greedy if you ask me.
  8. I had to collect my Spector from Mal Crawley in Stevenage today. Arthritis in his hands has forced him to stop repairing Amps, etc. I'd just like to send my thanks to Mal for the work he's done for me in the past.
  9. Hands up if you are jealous. One of @Jabba_the_gut's beautiful creations which came to me via @Owen.
  10. For those of you who thought it was me, sorry to disappoint.
  11. Killing me softly - Bobby Flack
  12. Sum body - Depeche Mode
  13. If leaving me is easy - Phil Collins
  14. I've seen this before - I really like it - reminds me of the Warwick Dolphin I used to have. Can you leave it to me in your will? 😉😉
  15. Careful, he's a member here. He may see your post and think..."maybe, just maybe.."
  16. Sisters are doing it for themselves - Eurythmics (Ft Aretha)
  17. £2,000. I could buy it, take the bridge off and throw the rest away. That'll deal with the 6 month wait...
  18. I'm always looking at alternatives so while browsing I found details of ETS headless bridges - Made in Germany, they're used by quite a lot of high end builders and they make some nice looking parts. Price for the headless bridge is significantly less than similar bridges (ABM) - around £160. I went to the website but there's no way of contacting them. Apparently it's one fella working on his own and there is a 6 month turnaround. I did find one of the company's customers who can place an order and I'm waiting for them to come back to me with a quote. I'll keep everyone apprised on developments. https://www.ets-hardware.com/index.php/en/produkte-2
  19. I've had it crash over 10 times in the last 24 hours. Android user.
  20. Dead ringer - Meathead
  21. No woman, no cry - Bob Marley
  22. A few in "gold " lots in white.
  23. I have a bag of similar ones in white.
  24. Can you feel it - The Jacksons
