    I did for a time own the Alleva Coppolo prototype Precision (with two J pickups) that was made for Willie Weeks while touring with Clapton (pictured). Gotta say provenance alone doesn't make me want to keep a bass. Although I would make an exception if Rob Trujillo were to donate Jamerson's bass of doom to me!

    Crikey, I didn't know of that provenance @Happy Jack. As with other Wals I have owned, though, I liked the concept and aura of the brand more than the reality of playing it, so I am not sad to have moved it on.

    Said quietly, I paid Leszek £580 for my R-400 a month back, albeit the figure will move with the sterling/zloty exchange rate

    Its about 9 and a half pounds so at the upper end of what I am comfortable with but balances well with a wide strap, so all good thanks! My last one was well over 10 and that was too much

    Not guilty. It is only one of 3 basses ever manufactured that I haven't either owned (and sold) or played. Or is it 2? 😁

    New (1984) Alembic Day Spoiler in black Cliff Burton style livery. Very battered but now benefiting from judicious application of black nail varnish and a good polish of the brass bits!

    1984 Alembic Spoiler arrived at Clarky mansions today

    Newly arrived, battered 1984 Alembic Spoiler. Get your Cliff (Burt)on!

    Love everything about this, the design, the backwards tuners, the provenance. I bet there are a ton of us on BC who would snap this up if we could afford it. As others have said, GLWYS

    New tug bar for my Fender Custom Shop 1951 Precision courtesy of @Rick's Fine '52 Before and after pics. The stock pale maple jarred with me and Rick kindly offered a stained black maple tug bar which he had made for a previous build

    Close ups (switched off and on)

    Arrived today and sounds fab. This one's staying

    Shame you can't (a) post and (b) take trades Si as I kinda fancy this as a backup to my '71! Have another bump on me instead
  19. Clarky
    Erm, having bought and (foolishly) sold an R400 last year, I have a new one winging its way from Poland too 🤷‍♂️
  20. Clarky
    Probably been posted before but I haven't seen this. Some clear examples of the great man's famous one-finger "hook" technique. Enjoy

    Your Jazz is transformed by that nice mint/aged white pickguard. Yum
  22. Clarky
    I'll take it! Sweet FA incoming
  23. Clarky
    Fabulous bass. I had an identical one and it ran my '71 vintage Mustang very close. Someone buy this, you will be happy!

    As does a certain Mr Percy Jones https://www.notreble.com/buzz/2010/11/30/an-interview-with-percy-jones/
