Neck is tinted, with a darker tint on headstock, satin on neck and gloss on the board. Kluson reverse tuners Bridge has spiral saddles. I'm working on the pickup cover, not sure if I like it but don't hate it yet No-load tone pot for a fully leaded sound on 10 Plate is tort although I'm not sure how close it is to real tort used on a 73 - perhaps someone could advise ?

It has landed ... At my house. Sadly I'm not there Pics later on

I don't think coverage is a concern for him ...

Bass guitar makes people move, I think it's the only criteria that matters .

The bass doc tells me he will be shipping early next week.

Very nice

It's a check box on the left hand side within the search Also handy within the eBay phone app

Worth also setting up your "buyer requirements " so you can exclude people with unpaid item strikes, then you don't need to pre block

Thanks - I will adopt it but she's still at it - judging from her recent feedback It really is wrong that buyer feedback isn't affected by unpaid item strikes and so on

[quote name='BetaFunk' timestamp='1369220666' post='2086395'] You can block any bidder. [/quote] You can. But only once you've been stung I wanted to stop other people being stung too.

I apologise to anyone I upset, I didn't mean that I do nothing else .. Or that its a hobby/business I just meant that if you are patient, and use the searches someone will list something you want for a low start price that you can win for not much

Totally disagree - bargains are entirely findable

[quote name='timmo' timestamp='1369214561' post='2086278'] I looked at a DVD of guitar playing years ago.The item was bidded up to £18 with a few hours to go. I scrolled down the page and it had the same thing for buy it now at !4.99 from the same seller. I bought it at the buy it now price. I really think some people treat it as a game and get an adrenaline rush when they win [/quote] They do, but see my post above

Yes - if the seller is silly enough to fail to put a reserve on, or to list it to finish at 3:32am then that's their loss. You can't blame the bidder for winning fairly, or relisting the item more sensibly and making a profit

I cannot understand the dumb people who watch a fixed price item until it ends. On another note, I am having trouble with an eBay troll who bids on items, wins them and never pays. Her feedback text is AWFUL but percentage still 100% of course, eBay do nothing despite multiple sellers reporting her User hollygrassby if you would like to avoid her.

Old neck back on

I'd return it to standard , THEN sell it People like standard IME

I just have two - well one right now, a vintage stingray copy, and a replica 70s p bass in maple / sunburst on order chez bass doc
