Dazed

I really like the industrial accident look but Christ that hit over £500 and didn't touch the reserve?

[quote name='White Cloud' timestamp='1417958846' post='2625410'] Ouch...horrible to watch that at the end. Both Jaydee and Pangborn were basically Alembic copies of the highest calibre. [/quote] Always wondered what that bass was in that video. Always loved the look of it over his jaydees.

Looks good! How easy is it to destroy a neck? Slightly dubious of my own abilities.

Limelight all day long. I understand it's not the genuine article but I believe you would be very hard pushed to find an original for anything like the money it would cost. As for a CS version being an investment, they don't appear to increase in value following the slump after buying new. Then you have a custom instrument which already narrows your future resale potential. Lastly a £4K instrument can be a real headache to own and really use. It's just too stressful trying to keep it mint, which I guess would be happening in terms of protecting your investment.

Recently saw one of these in the flesh, although I don't think it was a thomann one. The chap had removed the strings and converted into a 4 string with bass tuning. When I saw it hanging on the wall, I thought it was a coracle ! Huge thing , big sound too.

Thanks. Just found the John East version. Looks good, might be a bit too pricey though.

I'm thinking of adding the big pick guard to one of my basses. What's the general consensus on the pre amps? Anyone know of a stockist? Thanks

Sadly, If my Warwick doesn't sell then this might have to go. [/quote] Now mine this has blown away all of my precision preconceptions,dislikes and general anti fender outlook. Never would I have predicted that a humble beaten up ole P bass could have been this enjoyable. Truly awesome playing and sounding thing. Always liked relic looking basses but I didn't expect it takes feel so worn in, comfortable and full of character. Thanks Pete, err Kenny

[quote name='Subbeh' timestamp='1417470126' post='2620780'] *edit* is it the pics or does the string alignment look a bit off? [/quote] Mehhhhh Adam'll never notice

[quote name='thebassist' timestamp='1417370588' post='2619652'] This is probably the one that appeared They're so, so rare and crazy difficult to get hold of... I'm loving it so far [/quote] I guessed it might be. If you ever change your mind let me know

I hope a jazz version doesn't appear for sale soon or my bank account is for it!

Gotta love a lollipop
