It's no help now, but we always do a kind of relay where one person is always in attendance at the car, even at quieter locations. It just takes one opportunist walking past and a thousand pound guitar is gone in seconds.

Well? 😁 £128 was a good price I think.

I think that one would scrub very well indeed, the closer I look at the pictures the better it looks. But you just never know until you see it in the the flesh. I bought a Hondo II Precision under similar circumstances and it has one of the earliest examples of a torzal twist neck 😁. That said, if it was near me I'd be tempted.

Given that it was "found in the garage" and all the cold/damp implications that could encompass, the bridge, tuners, etc don't look any more rusty than any similar vintage bass might look. That would make me think that the electrics haven't adversely suffered either. If they have then they're very easily fixed. The actual condition of the body and neck looks to be very good considering. I'd be happily pay £150 for that, maybe £200 if I really was after one. For me personally that's the best colour combo and I really like the look of it. Best of luck if you go for it.

BB1025x, very nice indeed. 😎 I'm am a bit of a Yammy fanboi it has to be said, currently have six. Enjoy your new bass, and the rest of your birthday.

Sleep Token at O2 London. My daughter was going with her partner but they've recently split and all her friends are working on Friday. She was going to go alone but has talked me into tagging along. I've no idea what they're like and I've purposely not listened to them so it'll be a surprise.

Happy Birthday @LowB_FTW🎂

Is it Billy Sheehan related, as per the highlighted possible clue?

A cool bass but not an SD Curlee. The pickup does look like a DiMarzio with the hex pole pieces so should sound good, although it is in a very different place to a Curlee. Being further forwards it should have a deeper tone to it than a Curlee, which is better or worse depending on your preference.

It looks like someone thought they'd make it a 34" without considering the frets. D'oh! 😁

Entwistle neo (PBXN?) is IMO very similar to an SD Quarter Pound but with slightly more mids/less scoop, which, again IMO, makes it better. A very good hot P pickup.

Well in that case that's probably an expensive itch that doesn't need scratching. I've already got a 374a in (IMO gorgeous) dark coffee burst that don't intend to sell, and the jump up to a P34 probably isn't worth the outlay, unless I got rid of the 374. While the Japanese build is likely to be exceptional, the Indonesians are none to shabby. Talking of cases, the standard gigbags with the 374 is very high quality for the price of bass. My BBPH came with the same bag. Good luck with the P34 👍
