    Good luck, I was thinking it might have been the parts of Essex nearer to Herts, in which case I could have got along.

    [quote name='Paul S' timestamp='1448379817' post='2914921'] I just missed seeing bands like Sabbath, Led Zep and Deep Purple in the period 1970-73, which I reckon was about the best time for any of those. [/quote] I saw all of your three in that period. Sabbath and Led Zepp at the Ally Pally and Purple at the Rainbow.

    Looking good. Where is the first gig then?

    No worries, will do.

    I'm not qualified to dish out advice about depression but in terms of your uncertainty with instruments, it doesn't have to be one or the other. Play whichever one makes you happy at the time. Some days I don't much fancy the Bass, not often but now and then, on those occasions I'll play my Mandolin or Acoustic Guitar.

    I've no experience of the other Jazzes that you mention, just wanted to say that although Fender gets a fair bit of bashing about QC and many forum users go on about terrible Fenders, I would say that there are still many, many better ones than there are bad. I know it could happen but I've yet to have a bad one, yes some have been much better than others but even the ones that weren't quite so good, were actually very playable once set up properly. There is a fair bit of nonsense spouted, often based upon trying out a P or J that has languished in a shop, with dead strings and in need of a set up.

    [quote name='tonyclaret' timestamp='1447923320' post='2911440'] Which version is this? Model number? Thanks [/quote] Sorry Tony, I don't know the answer to that.

    [quote name='wenbainhouse33' timestamp='1447922310' post='2911433'] Where are you based? [/quote] Sorry, I should have put details in ad. I'm in Herts.

    Great work, whacky looking but very pleasing

    I suppose if it was me and I really liked them both equally, they both were of comparable quality and both did what I wanted/needed, then the decision would be down to which one I felt would lose the least money, when the time came to move it on.

    Just been listening to some Yes this afternoon and playing along on my fretless, have to say it was challenging

    Lozz had some sort of case up for sale a few days back.

    You did well there it would seem. I think the same cab on the GAK site is £333

    Really sorry to hear of this, give us some more details Mike. Area stolen from, distinguishing marks etc.

    [quote name='karlfer' timestamp='1447246284' post='2906044'] Oh yus I'm still thinking very strongly of pulling them. Anyway, back to the question instead of the mick taking [/quote] Yep, sorry for the derailment.

    Great to hear of kind gestures like this.

    [quote name='CamdenRob' timestamp='1447059764' post='2904385'] I've discovered I need a fretless with a low B for my new project... I'm having to choose which songs to play fretless on based on which key they are in rather than which song I actually want to play fretless on... There is but one solution... I've emailed Paul about building me a fretless sixer [/quote] At least you should have plenty of time to save up

    I've just completed another transaction with Andy, this time face to face. It was a real pleasure to meet up and I'm so happy that my bass has gone to such an enthusiastic new owner. Just like last time, this was totally hassle free from start to finish. Happy to recommend Stoney as a fine chap to deal with.
