[quote name='Ashdown Engineering' timestamp='1384116613' post='2272994'] Lol the price tag is too low if anything! Each one is hand built to order in Essex, custom covering and lots of parts etc... Have you seen the price of the Ampeg heritage B-15.... Now that's nuts ;-) [/quote] Sorry, I should have qualified that by saying 'compared to what I could get a used LB rig for at the time'. Would love a drophead 30 for the house! Any plans for a drophead 15 with 12" speaker? That'd be AWESOME! Agreed the Ampeg B-15 price is certainly nutts, especially considering you're not even getting the original circuit design...

Looking forward to my bb2 being ready. Hopefully in about 4 weeks...

Jazz basses

Had considered one myself before buying my lb head from obbm and your lb cab Gareth. It basically boiled down to this: Amp looks the nutts, pricetag just looks nutts...

Bought a vt bass pedal from Pablo. Excellent as usual!

Had a custom 6 built a few years back. Just be absolutely certain you a) want/need a 6 string and that the specs are exactly what you want now AND, as far as you can tell, will suit you in the future. I'm a flighty git. I got exactly what I asked for, but by the time it arrived my tastes had somewhat changed (took almost a year from start to finish). My advice would be to buy off the peg if at all possible, even if you can't get exactly what you're after you'll get close enough that a few modifications will get you all the way there. Live with that for a while to make absolutely sure a custom is what you're after. Think of it as an intermediate learning step.

Ain't got nothing on Dirk Verbeuren...

Precisions. Never liked them until I had a run in with a refinished '65 while on honeymoon in NYC. Totally changed my opinion. Couldn't be without one now!

The inability to bump your own wanted ad makes the section pretty useless. Que people putting up new ads every time instead, as has already started to happen.

I volunteered myself for the role. Honestly now - Am I mad? [/quote] You seemed a little uncertain on how to handle the situation...
