I have a seymour duncan stack '51. Sounds nice but because the pole pieces are flat, the E and the G are louder than the A & D. I find it irritating and have to use a little compression to sort it

we covered that in about 8 years ago. Fab song, great harmonies. Needs a tambourine to make that shaker noise at the start

the problem is the length. DHL have a length limit which adds a surcharge. I shipped a bass to the czech republic via Eurosender. I kept the length of the package to 136cm x 49 x25cm. costed about 60euro, including full insurance up to 2000 pounds. It took a while, there was a bank holiday in the way but it turned up ok

some people used to undervalue the goods, so the customs charges would be less, but then you cant insure for the full value I bought some guitars from the states 15-16 years ago. It was way cheaper back then, 2 dollars to the pound etc. You actually have to pay duty on the shipping charge (It is added to the goods value) and then VAT on the whole lot

until 31st december nothing changes in the eu. After that, who knows what will happen

if you're buying from within the EU, there is no duty and taxes. you pay the price and that's it If , however, it is outside the eu, then you'll have to pay duty and VAT

I do now!!

I met her in the lift in our hotel in Brighton. I carried her bag up the last flight of stairs. It was a great gig Met her again in the lift in the morning

I had to pick up a bass and learn this, it was soooo good. I love the way he talks about brushing his hand across the strings, that percussive thing. I've started to try it, and it's making me play without a pick. But then I play fingers, pick and just thumb sometimes. You should all read Guy's book. It's really interesting

Thanks mate, finally all sorted, I'd forgotten just how good this bass is

I'm thinking of selling this as I haven't used it for a couple of years. Only used on 'Police' gigs but since I've had my Bravewood, that's pretty much all I use these days. Excellent Mwah to this one!!

What you need is one of those 70s boat anchors made from ash. They'll smash anything

No mate, you need the fretless version like i have😁

These are lovely basses. I have a 940 that I aquired from John at Bravewood

about 1989 I bought an original '62 P bass from a friend. It was stripped and french polished. It was a lovely thing to play and sounded good. In 1990 I bought my '73 P bass which I still have. It was better than the '62 . I prefered the neck and the sound. I was 22 and couldnt afford to keep both, so I sold the 62 for 550 quid. I wish I hadn't sold it but I still have my '73. It is still the best bass I have played. I just don't know why

It was £1500 7 years ago He actually builds the guitar and lets the laquer cure for about 9 months before he does the relic

I have a fender 62 pickup in one of my basses and it's awesome. I also have a kent armstrong in another bass but I cant remember which one. It also sounds very good. I'll see if I can find out what it is

My Bravewood. Convinces most people that it is an original. I always tell them it is a replica of Sting's battered bass. I also have a Flea jazz bass. I gigged it exclusively for a couple of years. Probably did 60-80 2 hour gigs with it. The finish has started to rub off where my wrist rests and where my forearm rests. I haven't got any pics of this to hand. The white primer is showing through. It looks great

in 1990/91 I worked in a music shop. Nothing bothered me but some of the youngsters could really nail sweet child of mine. It always amazed me how good they were

Milan has recently bought my Aria SBR-150. Easy transaction, price agreed and payment made very quickly with no dramas. We organised shipping through eurosender, which took 8 days, bank holiday in the middle. The Aria has gone to a good home, deal with confidence. Great communication and Milan is a great guy enjoy the bass

What a superb demo. Never heard of him but he's fab Gratuitous picture of my Bravewood

just wow
