    And here's a short demo vid for this amp - one of the best I've ever seen for any amp head! EBS 360 HD demo

    Me too. I've come close to buying a few times, not done it and then wished I had.

    +1 for the HB. These basses punch way above their weight in every respect. Err, except weight, that is 🙂
  4. scrumpymike
    Certainly looks like mine 🙂
  5. scrumpymike
    Doh! Just realised it says only available on my device.

    Me too. It's a never-ending journey! My first bass was a new short-scale Watkins Rapier in pale blue like the one pictured below. At the time I didn't even know there were different scale lengths available. Just got it because it was the only thing in our local guitar shop that I could afford. Paid £31 IIRC. If a used one of these came up I'd buy it in a heartbeat. Watkins Rapier bass 1965.avif

    Great pic!! Wonder if the bass has survived as you obviously have.

    Top marks for the mods and GLWTS.

    Thanks for the good thought but I'm definitely going to pass on this one.

    I was about to buy the Jaydee when I noticed the lack of a serial number on the headstock. Bass Bros said this was because it was a prototype but I'm not prepared to buy something that effectively has no traceability.

    And mine's full-colour 🙂

    I think that it's a question of how long the neck is left on the BBQ / in the pizza oven - whatever the heat source is. My understanding is that the full roasting process is necessary to achieve the stability benefits and that, by that stage, you're very close to ending up with a lump of charcoal apparently. Obviouslt the neck has then to be sealed in a way that stops any moisture getting back in. Can't remember where I actually read the above but I think it was in the course of researching Wilcock basses. I now have one btw but it looks like the neck has been cooked by somebody who eats his steak raw.

    Bernard's a proper Basschat-er and we've done transactions in both directions. Deal with confidence!!

    The female vocalist in a functions band I was in a while back had also been a pro dancer. She just used to drag people off their chairs and get them up dancing. Funniest time was at a rugby club do when she did it to a six-foot-plus prop forward guy much to the hilarity of his mates. There's no way that guy was gonna move so she just wrestled him to the ground - at which point he had to stand up. Lorraine was 5' 5" and no more than 8 stone.

    That's a good price from a retailer!! I've had one of these and it was very nice indeed.
