Quick update from me - the case arrived at about 4pm today, approx 30 mins before the wife arrived home. Ample time to un-box, cut up said box and scatter around the town in various bins and tuck case inconspicuously in the office!

Is nobody excited by the elastic search? It would make a good band name...

Bought a bass bag from Max, item was very well packed and shipped quickly. Thanks again 🙅‍♂️

Lovely, really nice grain on that one. Enjoy 😎

Hi guys Today we started using a better and faster search engine for Basschat. Elasticsearch allows much faster searching, more accurate results and works for shorter search terms which it didn't before. It'll also make the site faster when browsing. We hope you find it more useful. Now go and use it to find your next bass, or to argue with someone about something Cheers ped

Was it adequately insured?

Looking forward to pics!!

Very nice, I haven't ever tried an LB100, I'd be interested to compare.

There's a Basschat discount code for New Moon insurance, too - you'll get one month free.

Got the bass back yesterday from a tech in York who sorted the grounding issue - in fact it was more of a shielding problem. Three layers of conductive paint, foil backing on the 'plate, new grounding for the bridge and pots and it's whisper quiet now.

I think it might be based on when the avatar was uploaded - haven't got an answer to that particular Q yet

Well it looks like @bubinga5 is dead

Did you read the announcement at the top of the site

Got any sound clips of this bad Boy? Pre baked bean consumption is probably best

They’re easier to sneak into the house, too

P.S I don’t want to go on about it but you owe me a new face

Great fun vid, love it. Not sounds I tend to strive for but superb none the less. BTW I embedded the video for you

Amazing work, what a result, you must be chuffed to bits. Love a graphite neck <3

Some of these comments would be better kept Preevyet

As promised - please find enclosed a little tune especially for you Cameron! Hah Should probably add that I was making this up as I went along and that it's got loads of mistakes etc but once I get going I keep adding layers, I just can't help myself Bass is full vol, tone at 75% Second track is bass with pick and auto wah Third is bass at full tone with Muff Fuzz and shitloads of bayzzz

Tsar’d though

Yes thanks Gareth I'll measure my knob this evening

Don't know to be honest - there doesn't seem to be any consensus but it appears neck profiles changed as have the hardware components - I think the earlier models with the crackle finished anodised parts look the best personally... there's a thread on TB about the changes during which years but its's not very clear. I think the main differences are things like no longer tilt neck, plastic pick guard, different headstock, rosewood fingerboards... not an expert but we all know Leo liked to change things now and then. There certainly doesn't;t seem to be a 'pre CBS' equivalent cut off point or anything like that, though.
