I suppose he isn't going to want to come back even if you asked him because of the potential politics and bad feeling? [/quote] This ^^^ It's always better to talk first!

This is handy to know. I might give you a bell and drop over to Southend sometime 👍👍

I love this playing. Good video.

After reading this thread the other day i got the Yam TRBX305 out today for a noodle....Oh no! I'm bloody hooked on it again 😮

[quote name='Jazzneck' timestamp='1445770444' post='2893949'] My mates refused to buy me beer when I bought this one. [attachment=203550:cover_4926171332010.jpg] [/quote] Love Arthur 😊

I assisted one of my good mates at work to get help. He was in the very same boat as you. At the time he called me all the b'stards under the sun but now he has overcome the problem he thanks me for lots of things he could have lost. Well done to you.....day by day and keep the faith 👍

At least you wouldn't get peckish between sets.

[quote name='gsgbass' timestamp='1445813068' post='2894481'] I know Olympic White goes a cream color over time. I didn't know about Arctic White doing that too. It's not from cigarette smoke, is it? [/quote] No it's only an MX 2014 made bass, has been gigged a handful of times and lives in a smoke free house. I really don't know but i really don't mind either 😊

My 2007 Squier Frank Bello sig JB. Picked it up recently in Cash Converters. Installed a KiOgon series / parallel switched loom, Entwistle pups and Gotoh 201b bridge. Added some Grover tuners and some abalone inlay knobs. I think it sounds, plays and looks okay even with thebold skull motif.

[quote name='gsgbass' timestamp='1445776153' post='2894010'] I like Olympic White, but I would love to have an Arctic White / Maple Am. Std. if ever offered. I had a Fender Standard Fretless Jazz a few years ago in Arctic White. It turned out to be the last Fretless Standard offered in Arctic White. I sold it, and was never able to get another one. The mirror PG may look pretty good on it. I'm just not into the mirror PG. I would possibly get an Arctic White / Maple, Fender Standard Jazz, one of these days. I have an empty Gig bag needing to have an occupant, and Arctic White is cool. [/quote] My Artic White MIM is starting to go a buttery colour which i never thought would happen with a modern poly finish. 👍☺

Robert Calvert's - HYPE which nobody else in my clan gets but i think it's very good.

Pearloid looks good. I have Artic White and Maple and i'm even considering a mirror scratchplate.

Thank you.....that 51 has some real mojo about it! I like it so if you do decide to get rid i claim dibs please 😉

I bought a Yamaha TRBX 305 just to try out 5 strings. It's a really nice bass and comfortable to play but i go straight back to my 4 P as soon as i can and have to say the 5 is gathering dust. 😮

[quote name='bassmayhem' timestamp='1445694371' post='2893491'] That's depending on the price... [/quote] Fair point.....loving that 51 Can you put up a few more pics please?

Is this fat bass players anon..... I am 6 and i am a fat bass player

Record it live then ask for fan input to critique it 😉

[quote name='Beedster' timestamp='1445687432' post='2893408'] In fact here's both my Jap copies. Both are bloody lovely. The 4003 is stripped and oiled and whilst it may not be the most easthetically pleasing example ever, has one of the best necks I've ever played, perfect (BTW the horseshoe is a Ric as is the TRC).

Not having to keep bending over to pick up your in gig beverage is very important.

The MIJ 51 is high budget to me 😮

Hi BC, We all know that Tokai do a full range of instruments from entry level to top range Made in Japan high quality. For some time i've wanted a Thunderbird and i would like to go for a Tokai (can't afford a Gibbo) but clearly the quality of Epiphone has improved greatly in recent times. Is there any BC'er out there able to help me with a bit of a Tokai / Epi TB comparison please? 6
