Someones hiding something..... hahaha

Thats going to be one sexy bass! Wouldnt have thought it personally, but now ive seen it...wow! Good luck with the project, cant wait to see the final product.

After seeing this thread: [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=19053"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=19053[/url] I was wondering if anyone actually uses the strap pin on the back of the headstock anymore?

Interesting.... [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Semi-fretless-bass-4-string-mahogany-full-scale_W0QQitemZ110269743009QQihZ001QQcategoryZ4713QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem"]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Semi-fretless-bass-4...1QQcmdZViewItem[/url]

Used to have one of these, highly under-rated! Was a great bass, wish i still had it.

Cheers guys, ill probably go with SIMS as its just down the train line from me, might be able to drop the body off for measurements.

Ive started a new jazz bass project, ive got the body, bridge, neck etc, but i cant find a pickguard that fits I got one off ebay and theres no way itll fit, and i tried my sx one which turned out to be the same as the ebay one. The only problem is im not sure on the make of the body, ive emailed the seller to no avail. Any ideas?

I found this site the other day, was going to order a jazz control plate from them, but decided against it for now. They seem to sell some good items.

Ive always found ebay the best though. On and Rondomusic, even though theyre in the US, they ship here and the quality and price is good.

The 50's P appeals to me (which is a first), but that jazz is sexy too.... decisions, decisions!

Non-exsistant lack of drummer and singer doesnt help. Why cant half the guitarists out there equally divide and become drummers or singers! haha

got some green day we covered and recorded, but we vowed never to play that CD again.

Obviously the dimensions can change due to the number of strings, the scale length etc...[/quote] Aye thats what i thought. Thanks. *adds to the 'to buy' list*

She's a beaut Paul. That bridge looks beefier, how are the frets? More pics!

Erm, thought about it a few times, but id split my gear up between a few select people: My Aerodyne and Pedals id leave to my mate Jim, whos been my musical buddy for about 6/7 years, been through a load of bands and gigs together. My SX, ATK and Ashdown rig id leave to my gf Emily, and request that she either sell it and use the money on something she'd enjoy, give it to a good cause or use it herself. My bronco id leave to my mum, and request she get it framed as 'the bass that started it all'. Thats about it.

Just starting on Maxwell Murder by Rancid.......will report back in a month hahah
