Love the RevStars. Hoping for a bass version one day.

No love for this?

Loads of love, of the deepest, purest and sexiest kind. Just not much money.

Quite fancy one of these, but fear I'd look like mutton dressed as lamb.

We played one in a bar where everyone was dancing and we went down well. When our singer offered to rebook, they told him we were "too mellow" for a Saturday night (the only night they did live music). He's not normally an onanist (in public anyway) so we took that to mean the staff didn't like our act. Random, but there you are.

If bitsa bass count...these are quite famous stickers (Paul Simonon's London Calling 78 Precision)

 

Missed this the first time round, but surely one like this could be Fender's most lucrative reissue yet

When I first heard this on the radio I thought the chorus was “How’s about a date?”

 

 

I honestly heard this as "a*se about face"

I think last time this came up, we decided it was OK for some but not for others.

This chap may well be one of the others.

Arriving: Left Bank Two by the Noveltones.

Reflection: Stoneage Dinosaurs by Cardiacs

File-out: The Blimp (Mousetrapreplica), Captain Beefheart & his magics

Hopefully someone can sort this out when I cark it. Cheers

Now sold, thanks all for looking 

Looks better than I was expecting. Kind of trompe-l'œil. Maybe it just needs a coat of slightly transparent colour for a Foto Flame effect?

I have an explorer bass, no idea what brand it is, bought it off ebay years ago, but it doesn't play badly at all and has a single P bass pickup so sounds pretty P bassy. Needs all the paint stripping as whoever had it before me tried to paint on a wood effect... it looks awful! 

 

I'd love to have the time to do the work on it and then use it at the most inappropriate moments. Jazz gig... crack out the explorer!

Someone painted a wood effect on to … wood? This I have to see

At least his Ofsteds are OK …

Not sure about this new string to the bow, however: https://www.spamhaus.org/sbl/

Don't forget to adjust the DFA knob.

you called?

Just a thought, but the preamp in this costs £200+ to get from Warwick. So, if you just want the preamp I can happily supply an awful RockBass 2-band pre along with this bass. Then all you have to do is swap them round, keep the pre and sell on the bass for £350 and you're laughing.

I don't think I'm being serious, but you never know.
