I've just had this assembled and setup this afternoon. In the words of Tony the Tiger, It's Grrrrrreat!!!

My 74 Jazz Bass. This is the actual very first bass I ever played (it was owned by my friend Jimmy Davidson, who bought it second hand in 1974, after the original owner decided he wanted a P-Bass instead). I now own this bass. On the YouTube clip, you can see / hear Rob Harris (Jamiroquai) playing it.

I was bored at home, and had some Seafoam Green, and custom mixed Smooth Mint (Fiat 500 car colour), nitrocellulose lacquer leftover from previous builds. I wondered how the colours would look together. So, I made this: 2 piece, double bound, Tele body. 1 piece maple neck. Gotoh tuners and bridge. Fender Pure Vintage 64 Tele pickups. CRL 3 way switch, Fender Pure Vintage knobs, and CTS pots. All lacquer finishing was applied here at home. (I masked off the binding on the sides, and scraped back the front edge binding using a scalpel blade.

I'm currently listening to the new Abel Ganz album. It's fantastic. Melodic, celtic infused prog. Really great. Here's a review on Prog Radar. https://www.progradar.org/index.php/2020/06/20/review-abel-ganz-the-life-of-the-honey-bee-and-other-moments-of-clarity/

I'm currently playing the Savage album too!

No problem mate. Hope the Thunderbird parts work out okay for you.

Propaganda - "A Secret Wish" album is currently providing the soundtrack to my Saturday afternoon. Love this album. I've bought it at least a dozen times over the years.

Nah, I just buy lunch every now and then and suddenly I'm everyone's pal. Hahaha

At present I'm an enthusiastic hobbyist!!! Hahaha. Some of my friends are doing it full time (Paul Turner - Jamiroquai, Pino Palladino - everyone!!, Guy Pratt - David Gilmour, Pink Floyd, etc)

As for Abel Ganz, their last album has Jerry Donahue (Fairport Convention) on the track, "Thank You".

David and I played in a band called Downtown Loft together. David has also played with Hamish Stuart (Average White Band, Paul McCartney, etc.), Glen Tilbrook (Squeeze), and others. I've played with Tom Jones, Chris Rea, Craig Armstrong, amongst others.

My ex band mate David King is on guitar with them. Their new album is released in a couple of weeks time (the track I posted is on it).
