  1. I have a Yamaha BBG5 and it is a fine bass, and great value for money. A nice narrow nut and plenty of bark.
  2. As suggested above, try this email address: [email protected] The guy who replied to my particular enquiry was Huw Lloyd-Williams. Despite the email address he is in the UK. Roland have a list of certified repairers, which is what Huw might direct you to: https://www.google.com/maps/d/viewer?hl=en&mid=1ufxdlNwWP6MtTncc3gCTcrqIUXA&ll=55.25912902791857%2C-0.2807196689598612&z=6
  3. Aw, look at that. My baby. Gone to a good home.
  4. Dougie is a gentleman and I look forward to his future contributions to Basschat from Scotland’s second city, Edinburgh 😉

  6. Stuart here, Dougie. Watch out for these guys, they will try to sell you stuff..
  7. I've had several fretless basses, and loved them all. I find that the defining factors are neck width and depth, and attack, which are essential to the overall feel of a fretless. Dot positions etc are a distant last to these considerations. I have been drinking whisky, so take these remarks as you wish to. Bliadhna Mhath Ur, everyone.
  8. Absolutely gorgeous
  9. Crikey, some of that is quite amazing. But I prefer Scary Pockets.
  10. Hosco here. Excellent files.
  11. Wow nice. I loves me a white Jazz.
  12. My Yamaha BBG5. Growls like a mofo. Plus, gold hardware for that essential extra bling.
  13. Is it me, or does the headstock on the Sterling version look much larger?
  14. God that’s a nice bass.
  15. I am so so sorry to hear this. He was a great guy and a true Scot. Go in peace, Dave.
  16. Very nice. Could you measure the neck pocket dimensions, please? Ta.
  17. I just got a nice John East preamp from Brian. Arrived instantly and works perfectly. Thanks Brian!
  18. From my own experience, I would say you may need to shim it on at least one side. If it’s an HB Jazz Bass body, the holes for the pickup lugs will be in the wrong place if you use non HB pickups.
  19. Pure dead brilliant.
  20. My in-laws live in Camberwell Grove. I love the area. Do you know Nandine's on Vestry Road and on Church Street?
