A mild annoyance with UPS just now. Got some random bits coming from Thomman due in Friday. Tracking page on UPS site says ‘hey, sign up for UPS My Choice so you can tell the driver to leave it in a safe place or with a neighbor etc.’ OK. Sounds good. Do that. Head back to page and click manage delivery. ‘Sorry, all options can only be chosen once a delivery attempt has been made’ So...

I’ve shared those on our Bc FB page hope that’s ok?

Looks great, wish I could have been there but I’m in Scotland on a mini break. Enjoying it very much but haven’t opened bagpipechat yet. Congratulations to the team for a superb effort and another great opportunity to meet ‘chatters in the flesh! looking forward to more pics! ped

I bet half of those are just synths

Too long for me 😂

It’ll probably arrive straight!

Nearly there, just need to sign up 10 other playaz

Good excuse to get yourself a Wingbass if you ask me 😎

I had a similar Basschus (24) but mine had wood covered pickups. All I know is that they sounded brilliant!

This is where I go for a knob https://www.digikey.co.uk/products/en/hardware-fasteners-accessories/knobs/568

Hi there, check out point 5 and 6 here. Let me know if I can help further. Thanks! https://www.basschat.co.uk/faq/

Oh no - what happened to it! Did you leave it outside on the bench?

I do it sometimes. If it’s been literally a year or more since I last thought it and haven’t used the item, and it’s not going up in value, I sell. Recently did it with loads of camera gear.

Never understood the whole YOB thing really. I guess I'd keep it if I had room, it's nice to have things holding value that you can sell if you really need to - but if it's in the way or if it means you can't get a bass you'd use more, absolutely I'd sell.

I think our basses would be friends

This is my fave vid ever

Tbh if the bass has a truss rod, i'll start with the neck dead straight with my chosen strings and go from there.

Hi guys Please keep comments here factual and try to limit the name calling and use of terms like 'bodger' if possible, we have to be careful of libel. That said, I think the best thing to do would be to report it on eBay too. Cheers

Nope. Never. Apart from the fact that nearly all my basses have come to me used, I never find a ‘factory setup’ (if indeed the manufacturer publishes it even had one, I know many don’t and just adjust by feel) way too high. In fact several basses haven’t allowed a low enough G string even with the saddle in the lowest position. I’ve often had to file it down!

Mine was way too heavy! Mind you it was a six string Elan. Sounded nice though 👍🏼

Did someone say something? Hehe sorry no idea, @charic do the settings reset with the upgrade?

Just adding my 1991 BT5. Wanted one for ages. It has the classic smith sound and feels great.

That's why I'm adverse to pinning it - we don't have the ability to have a gallery per se, although I suppose someone could make a Flickr one or similar and post the link here?
