King Tut

I seem to remember reading that Sting's was Alder. Mine is ash - I love it and have no problem with the stinglay - but why make it of a different wood from the original - although I gotta say I lurve ash basses!

I had an MM3 5 string - it was lovely and I regret letting it go!

Love the Ash P Nick - bet it sounds the dogs - thought you'd never part with the Ric but I'm still loving the Custom Shop Jazz - one of my favourites!!

Was kidding

Beedster needs one of these - hey Chris - if you drove up to Lancaster to collect it - maybe you could drop the Ibanez off on the way ha ha!

Lovely close grain on this one - nice!!

She's a bootifull beeeaatch!

I've got a Custom Shop 64 closet classic in those colours and it's just awesome. I was playing in a Floyd tribute at the time I got it so bought a set of EMG's to go on it to be like Guys (sad I know!) but they wouldn't slot in without me widening the routs - so I've left it with the originals in. I've got a few really nice basses but this one is definately one of my best!

If you fancy some classic rock, I'm quitting Insurrection at the end of the year mate! What's with the change of name dude? Regards Col

As long as the bridge works and looks ok - I'd keep it - brass and meaty. If it's tarnished you can clean them up a treat with metal polish.

I think the main choice between TI's and La Bellas is the tension thing - I love TI's but they feel floppy when I dig in so I'm really digging La Bellas at the mo - TI's on my fretless though!
