I know, I think it was subconsciously your bass that made me think it. Then I realised it was your bass with the Sims in. Is it your orange bass with them?

Obviously very similar, but different enough. The top horn is all but identical but the lower horn is a lot more round, also both upper and lower bouts are wider than a Reverend. I'll do a new bass day at the weekend when I've settled with it. The colour is great, shell pink but metallic. The flake gives it a very silvery edge when it catches the light but up close the flake is actually quite holographic, but not enough to have a cheap fairground look. It's a very classy shell pink, if that's your thing.

This Royal Mail strike is really something....

I'd assumed the gif was of the broken record nature and aimed at a poster rather than a postal service. But I have been known to get things spectacularly wrong. Either way hopefully we've moved on. -

I won't pretend to understand it all but the singer in one of my bands is a postie, has been for years and loves his job, was saying one of the problems, along with the aforementioned trying to make drivers work like a franchise with driver owned vans, is that the money is there but they look after shareholders before looking after employees. -
The Short Scale Bass Appreciation Society!

On their Facebook page they had the picture of the pink 'The Saint' bass at their open day/weekend. In reply to a few questions Mark Gooday had stated that they were shortscale and due for release in April. They are selling the ones used at the open day as prototypes through Reverb. I bought the pink one and it is definitely the one in Ashdown's photo as there are a few tell tale marks such as a piece of scratchplate swarf attached to a certain screw. It's definitely 34". I don't mind as I prefer a 34", just fancied another shorty. It would appear it's just a range of new colours, and possibly roasted necks (if they weren't an option before) being released in April. The good news is that this is a standard The Saint bass which retail for around £1000, I only paid £299. 😁👍 -

Just to add to my post about the Ashdown shorties, they're not shorties. I bought the pink prototype pictured but it is 34". -
The bass pictured in the facebook post, and here, is the bass I received, there's a couple of tell tale bits, but it is most definitely 34" scale. I'm actually happy as I'd rather it be full scale but I don't know why Mark Gooday was saying it was a shorty. I'll report back when I had a proper play. It's a fantastic colour though.

There's a box at home apparently. 😁

A headless Talman would be cool.

Happy Birthday @Smanth. 🙂 -
😄 They really are cracking little basses. A little on the the heavy side for a shorty but it's got a fairly big body. I really like the pickups.

Just seen this BB1100S fretless on ebay. Seems a bargain... or did I overpay for mine! 😳
