I'm happy with that decision m'lud.

That's why I posted this a page or two later 😁.

Also my bowing out on the 14th Jan. No bass yet but money changed hands.

Boots Bloody Boots - Sepultura (puss in...)

If I Had A Hammer - Trini Lopez

You think he'd of at least ironed the top and bottom before glueing it up, it's all wrinkled! Seriously though, it looks superb. It still amazes me that a flat slice of tree can have such a 3d effect as this. It looks like a satin sheet.

Fe-where - Fleetwood Mac

Eggsorcism - Killing Yolk Double whammy, boom! 'kin' 'ave it.

Left, BB1024x (standard P). Right, BB424x (reverse P) Couldn't compare the two due to different pickups, strings and bridge, but the 424's G string definitely sounded more meaty after the conversion. I quite often feel a P bass's G string sounds a little thin (it's probably just me) and I definitely think a reverse P sorts this out (for me). The 1024 has gone, I still have the 424.

"Pick out the best of the bunch from the stockroom for our NAMM display wall." "OK boss, I really like this BB434M with the obviously mismatched centre piece of wood. I like the way it stands out and doesn't just blend in like the others." [A moments pause then face-palm]

Up Around The Bend - Creedance Clearwater Revival (or Hanoi Rocks)

I like the harshness of it this year. "I walked past a shop and saw a nice bass in the window." "Get tae f**k, yer oot!" 😁

Not that being first is a win in this thread, but my post above is a confession. Money has changed hands. A bass is travelling across the sea.

Caught putting it in my basket to check shipping cost and offered 10% off. Nice email chat with 'Wes' about weights and timescales. No council tax or water rates for the next two months. Birthday next month. Forgive me for I am weak.

Receiving email showing a new bass. ✔️ Remembering there's no council tax or water rates to pay for the next two months. ✔️ Being asked by my family what I want for my birthday at end of February. ✔️ Being cyber-spied eying up said bass and being offered 10%discount to tempt me. ✔️ Realising that all the above put together makes this practically a free bass. ✔️ Is that a trigger I hear being pulled? ✔️

Be Brave - The Comsat Angels

I gigged an RBX374 for a few years, the one with a pair of Musicman type humbuckers. I thought the range of sounds was fine, and I loved the scalloped thumbrest shape to the top edge of the pickups. Light, comfy and well built.

Rubbish - Carter USM

I think, given the shape of the control plate, scratchplate, etc, if the bottom edge of the headstock was cut straight to match the tuner side it would suit the guitar far mode, like a symmetrical pointy shape with a rounded end.

Reminds me of a Rickenbacker when they aren't doing the cresting wave thing.

Hallo Spaceboy - David Bowie

Death or Glory - The Clash I seem to be on a Clash thang 😁

I was going to say some of the Yammy RBX range had a similar thing going on, albeit a separate plastic plate to give that effect.

Clampdown - The Clash
