    Congratulations on the Dolphin. Here's mine.

    Och, Neeps! Down to the bookie's for me then. 😁

    This I like. 😎

    Give yourself some time to think it through. As Mr Micawber said, "Something will turn up'. As stated above by Alex, there may be many opportunities yet to come for you. I really hope it works out for you. Do let us on BC know the outcome. Best wishes.

    The things we did/do for whatever took/takes our fancy! £900 was a fair amount quarter of a century ago. I'd like to have seen it wearing its original (?) tort guard. My student days were spent surviving on Homepride cook-in sauce as I recall.

    I agree about the neck. I'll take a screenshot of your comments in order that, as you say, should it ever be sold-on, any new owner will be aware of what they are buying. It was certainly interesting to read about the bass and pick up some of its 'history'. The dealer you mentioned had another two 70's up for sale at the time I bought this one. Were either of those yours - one was a '78 natural and the other, a '73 Sunburst if I recall?

    It is indeed. I like it as a bass, so the defects don't really bother me. It currently plays really well, so I'm happy enough. 😁

    Thanks going out to all contributors here. Problem now solved after purchasing a Fat Finger from fellow 'chatter', @bassbiscuits (thanks for your help in this one). No more dead spot on the 'C' at fifth fret, and as a bonus, the dead spot doesn't appear to have moved elsewhere. Back to being a happy bunny again. 😁👍

    I have one of these and it's really good - just like a P, but with the extra string. This one looks 'classic'. GLWTS

    Just bought a Fat Finger from Chris. Excellent communication throughout and the Fat Finger is in first-class condition. Item arrived well-packaged and postage free, within one day. Highly recommend any dealings with this man - a credit to BC. 👍

    Agree about the Egyptian Smoke colour - most satisfying and brings understated class. GLWTS.

    Using the drill set to 'hammer action' usually results in a secure finish.

    @nilorius You forgot to mention that when the cat destroyed the headphones, she was 19 years and 364 days, 23 hours, 59 minutes and 59 seconds old.

    Strangely enough - The Jethro Tull Christmas album. Greatly recommend (if you like that kind of thing obvs.)

    I've come over all faint. "Nurse! Nurse!"

    'A stupidly loud blues rock band' - love it! Rock 'n' roll will never die (even if you ears might). I said ... ... 😁

    Good luck with the next stages. Impressive so far. 👍
  24. snorkie635
    Stonking piece of kit. Sad story though. GLWTS. (This won't hang around for long)

    Maybe it comes with its own crane? 🤔 Does look nice though.
