  1. [quote name='Stoney' timestamp='1437078411' post='2823484'] Wow, lovely bass Gary! GLWTS. [/quote] Thanks my good man time for a bump.
  2. I'm just getting in to fretless myself. Like you, can't believe I've never tried it before. I've probably made it hard for myself though, having purchased an unlined neck. Anyway, looks like you got a decent buy there, hope you continue to enjoy
  3. Wow, that wood. Messes with my eyes. You have one stunning pair of basses there Rob.
  4. That looks lovely H, worth the wait I'm sure.
  5. Hope wife doesn't spot Joyo clip on in my search history
  6. Might just get one of those, thanks for posting
  7. [quote name='Bilbo' timestamp='1436951507' post='2822230'] My wife bought an Orla Kiely handbag (£350) in a charity shop for £3. [/quote] My wife loves Orla Kiely handbags/purses but doesn't like shopping in charity shops, I suspect this might make her change her mind.
  8. [quote name='afterimage' timestamp='1436983184' post='2822584'] Wow what a bass lovely Finnish the neck is a u shape profile the pups are really nice sounding [/quote] Not the most detailed of reviews Glad you are enjoying it though.
  9. [quote name='HazBeen' timestamp='1436773657' post='2820512'] I am going to call today, try to get a ETA. Not impatient or anything, but I need to track some new songs soon....... [/quote] So what was the news H?
  10. Have you checked the slot in the nut? Intonation can be affected. A little graphite (pencil lead) rubbed in the groove can help.
  11. I get the same problem when I play thin necked basses. It's one of the things that put me off J's for a while. I found it went away when I got older 60's and 70's models Need to buy yourself a decent oldie mate
  12. Hi Alex. I have a couple of mates who are very good. They came along and set up, did FOH and recorded us at a recent gig. We are still in the process of mixing the tracks but so far we are happy with the results, certainly not bad for a live recording. You can have a listen here if you want to get some idea: https://soundcloud.com/defunkt-band Let me know and I can make contact and see if they are available for you.
  13. [quote name='discreet' timestamp='1436711412' post='2820106'] A total delight, and the very rare dot/bound/lollipop variant, as you say. Lovely condition, just the right amount of wear and some delicious tort. GLWTS! Where's Rumple? I think this may be his YOB bass! [/quote] Got to love the tort from this period [quote name='Lozz196' timestamp='1436714934' post='2820128'] Didn`t expect that Gary, still if you`ve your eye on something else, something has to give. GLWTS - not that I think you`ll need it for this beauty. [/quote] Thanks Lozz [quote name='Chiliwailer' timestamp='1436715399' post='2820133'] Wow Gary, great refin on that one and an awesome set of cool features GLWTS [/quote] It is a beaut Dan, thanks and light enough for your shoulders
  14. I've had 70's Fenders with part of the logo under a tuner bushing.
  15. The link doesn't help me Alex. Check that you have entered the price correctly in the trade value box. Don't use any commas, full points etc. just the figure.
  16. That's the second very lovely Ibanez to appear today.
  17. That is a good looking instrument.
  18. The Stratosphere have a few. I've bought quite a few items from them, all good but you may well get hit with duty charges etc. http://www.stratosphereparts.com/search.php?search_query=Fretless+neck
  19. I looked at this bass at the Herts bash a few weeks back and very much liked what I saw.
  20. Just keep an eye on Ebay, that's what I've been doing for the last few weeks. Last week a Manson Custom fretless neck appeared, with a not too bad BIN price, so I snapped it up. The Ebayer you mention did have a fretless on a couple of weeks back.
  21. Hello, good to meet you Welcome back to the world of bass.
