I’m tempted and I can’t play fretless! I love the look of it!

I just looked that up - a very understated bass that precision!

Woah there’s a little mini version of your profile pic hiding in that photo

What’s the dream?

That was my initial thought too - if they shipped with everything slack

Did the truss not work, or more it was shipped completely unsetup?

are they active or passive EMG in Betsy?

Bravewood P?

To you?

Invisible Sansamps to murder... a bit of a jump

I wouldn’t call £1600 for a hand built bass Made in the U.K. unreasonable ...

Ooooh I like that

What was it that you were thinking of?

And you have to have a bit of luck to get on the queue! He builds what he wants, if you are fortunate you might get first dibs

You say they are vintage - Would a cheap new hard case be a significant percentage of the cost? Depends on the bass I guess, a £100 vintage from Russia and a £9k 60's fender are very different. If you stuck a sale post up on here and said, I want £x and postage will be £x in the UK plus £50 for a gator hard case or something... that's reasonable

Not blue though

If you are switching pickups... Q timers as meantioned, or something using Er I can’t remember what it’s called, different technology , lace alumatone, villex ... but if it’s a Warwick streamer with an active pj set - it’s never going to have a piezo tone but I would change the preamp before the pickups. Personally I would get an east Uni pre but other hifi preamps are available. I think that would make a bigger difference than the pickups

visually, not that you sell them all

that looks really nice. I see a bit of a theme with your P basses though.

Did John deacon have the pickup flipped too?

I hated it too, and then I was building a pedal years back and ran out of solder, I couldn’t get across town to maplin before closing time but went into this super old school electrical repair place and he guy sold me some ancient lead based solder - it’s so much easier to use!

Got you!
