  1. The reason for them being £1 is that more people would likely stop forgetting to take bags. The more something costs, the more likely you are to take note. Like i said, 5p doesnt bother anyone that much Psychology No.1
  2. There was a Mock Turtles band member called Doug ?
  3. Still, i would like to see them rise to £1
  4. Apart from all the planet choking packing above, one thing that irked me was when the caring uk Gov made all shops charge 5p for a plastic bag, for the hard of thinking, who often dont take their own. Barely anyone would care at forking out 5p. If they'd made that price £1, maybe it would have made a much bigger difference. It's not a mental challenge to take reusable bags. If an idiot like me , who's been using the same bags for 7 or 8 years can manage it, anyone can
  5. Me too, though the sound quality at bass shows on YT seem to always be lacking. Understandable at a show, i guess
  6. IIRC , isnt that how the famous one handed bass player works ? I think his technique was forced on him, though , due to his accident. Ah..just remembered his name ,.. Bill Clements
  7. If it turns out to be a pile of, then it could start a second life as an ironing board.
  8. Yep, i think i agree about the timeline. Must be 10+ years since i was seeing mazeti basses on ebay.
  9. Was it active ? Some ( not many i should think ) have the battery connector converted to Boss style 2.1mm barrel plug, and just power the preamp with a 9v power supply. Probably way out in my thinking, but it was just a thought
  10. Never been in a tribute, but seen a few. Counterfeit Stones, Whole Lotta Zed, Limehouse Lizzie. They were fabulous too. Great entertainment, and superb musicians
  11. Yup, not the wild thing that the basses were built like.
  12. Kind of strange ...Years ago, I used to see Mazeti basses for sale on Ebay a lot. Then they disappeared. I was so tempted to buy one, and never did.
  13. Karl Reidlich may have been the name behind Mazeti. I'd heard that they were built in Germany. How Frenchman Thomas Bruneteau got to make identical guitars is a mystery right now By the way, yes BT i see what you mean now about the similar W. It's all got a bit odd and confusing. One W is rounded and curvy, the other is very sharp and angular, but there is a similarity
  14. Yeah i didnt think of that. Or maybe Bruneteau took over a failing company ? Who knows. I like them which ever way it happened
  15. PS Nff Found what i was looking for. He was Mazeti ....he changed the name. I KNEW i'd seen those weird fretboards before. Man., i should be a detetctive https://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/les-paul-bass-mazeti-bass-guitar-512359460
  16. yeah if you can live with the headstock - it will be utterly unique - but build yer own case
  17. No, NFF got it wrong The single letter W is French Luthier Thomas Bruneteau. The one with the full word WOLF, is the Korean one
  18. Would you believe it... I cant find any basses with that 2 tone fretboard yet
  19. I have the feeling that Bruneteau makes very good quality axes. And unless he copied the bass model that began with an M that i cannot think of, it maybe that he started the bass building with those M's and ventured on to Wolf, changing the name. That 2 tone neck is identical to the basses i remember that are no longer around
