    I hope she'd numbed the area beforehand with a nidl?

    Lovely to see a visit from Dad's rarely seen Hackles Cruiser. *applauds*

    An easy mistake to make. The second album from Follow The Ostrich, An Unexpected Surfeit of Homosexuals is often mistaken for A Glut of Woofs, the ninth album from Swedish Death Metal Trio, Alooominum.

    We are having a nice restrained conversation about the Terminator franchise, self-repairing American trucks, enigmatic band names, the early works of Kraftwerk, American avant-garde collective The Residents, cheesecake, Wantage, your first pint, the Istanbul / Constantinople dichotomy, pronunciation, bacon cookery and WW1.

    I tried it once. I came out in a nasty rash and had to have a lie down.

    Another year not attending your own Bass Bash Mike? It just won't do.

    Uninterestingly, Lemonsole, Blake & Farmer were originally called Follow The Ostrich and unfortunately their first album of bland psychedelia was called the same. Bonus Fun Fact... Wantage is in Oxfordshire.

    I agree with the very sensible comments above, I used to think about upgrades before even buying sometimes, but invariably left them as is. With Fenders I've only ever had to stop hums or noise, none of them ever needed anything replacing. Get the bass and play it for a good while, then, as @Crawford13 says if you like it then think about any deficiencies, if you don't like it, sell it on unmodified. Important to remember modified basses have a lesser resale value and are more difficult to sell.

    It's 00:16 and I've just read this entire thread from start to finish twice and, guess what? I'm going to read it again.

    The fretted spalted Jabba bass I bought (to tide me over until I have these two beauts) has fully converted me. As I've said before countless times I was (or so I thought) perfectly happy with the Rob Allen until I played @wrinkleygit's Jabba Fretless, I couldn't believe anything could top it but the Jabba bass was better and clearly so. The fingerboard and necks are divine, as is the rest of the bass. Despite having asked specifically for thumb rests, I've found the design kind of makes you play over the bottom of the fingerboard which sounds lush.

    Are you both talking about the Harlot I bought from @TheGreek?

    ...and from the above it looks like it's the best decision I ever made!
  18. Frank Blank
    Absolutely. It was playing yours that got me in this mess!

    Oh my lordy lord. I love that blank headstock, absolute class.

    I watched this the other day followed by I Dream of Wires, a very detailed documentary on synthesisers, particularly modular synthesisers. Two very good documentaries.
