Looks fantastic, well it would it's a Thunderbird. Such a cool bass. 😎👍

I picked this Kimbara up yesterday. Awaiting a clean, polish and set-up but it's in really good condition for a 70s bass.

Yeah I get that, but just purely visually it's all wrong anyway, wrong colours, wrong amount of stars, unevenly spaced stars. It's just a poor attempt at a Confederate flag. If you want to go down that route, surely put some effort in to space the stars correctly, even if you can't do the colours.

Maybe I'm being dumb here (it has been known) but it reminds me of a Jamaican flag just as much as a Confederate flag.

I bought these a while ago, don't be afraid to make an offer. 😉

Another Journey By Train - The Cure

I've always thought Crafter to be similar to Yamaha, in that at any given price point you seem to get more than your money's worth. I've got an old Crafter bowl back acoustic that I've had four years, it's a great little guitar.

These look fantastic. I love the little details like the Guild logo knobs. It would've been easy for them to just slap a pair of generic tophats on, especially being a relatively affordable bass, but they've got the extra mile. I don't know which colour I prefer. 🤔

A guitarist wanted a 4x12 cab which the seller had, offered him this bass in exchange for it. Also being a guitarist, the seller hung it on his wall for the last 40 years, occasionally having a plonk on it. Apart from a couple of dings that it had when he got it, it's in amazing condition. A couple of little issues, but age will do that to you. 😁

Sorry, it's not a Gibson. Kimbara, 70s Matsumoku copy, but a very close copy apart from the lack of through body stringing. The scratchplate is a replacement as the original tort one was gassing off and crumbling, which is a shame. It's still lovely none the less.

NBD post to follow once I've had a play. Have a sellers pic teaser for now. 😉

Hmm, the back seat of the car this morning would imply I'm definitely out now.

Tied Up Too Tight - Hard-Fi

How does a superb condition, tobacco burst, Shergold Modulator 8 string, in original case with the 'case candy' grab ya? It popped up on facebook marketplace within reasonable distance from me and I very nearly had my second crumble. I'd in all reality never use an eight string, but it looks fantastic.

Drain The Blood - The Distillers

I'm going to withhold judgement. I'm in a house constructed from glass with a pocketful of stones.

Who Are You - The Who

Some people like them, some people don't. So what, so what, you boring little c***? 😉

Yes, this is a fantastic idea. Totally outside the ideals of what this thread is about, but means I'm back in. 😄

Caffeine Bomb - The Wildhearts

Oh my, is that the date, it can't be 2022 already can it? Really? It's actually January now? Surely not! I could've sworn it was still December, 2021. Well that does put me in a predicament! 🙈
