[quote name='pbass67' timestamp='1433236943' post='2789121'] Good result there chaps! I'm very interested to know what you think of these ukes as they're very much on my GAS list at the moment. Owen, i may be wanting to pop by and see you when it arrives, if its convenient. I look forward to your reviews guys. Paul. [/quote] I will give you a nod when it appears. I have owned one before and the sound is sublime. The build quality is pretty rough but nothing half an hour with a sheet of sandpaper would not sort out. I am getting it for a friend but will try and arrange a time with you before I ship it off.

Taranis - Taran is Welsh for Thunder. Almost makes me want one just for that.

They are still selling them so I am guessing that even though I have ordered mine there are more there so my guess is that it has worked. Time will tell.

SCOOOOOOORE Thanks, I was waiting for a Uke again

Dinky lushness.

Yep, that has been my experience as well. I have installed a Fernandes Sustainer pickup into a Tele and that is lots of fun but I have always wanted the same facility on bass. This might be it, it might not.

That's what it looks like. I never got the ebow to do what I wanted it to. I am gambling that this will. Time will tell

It's no good, I have pledged and bought one. I will report back when it finally arrives.

Galveston used to make a lovely looking gold metal flake topped bass. I seriously regret not buying one.

Would that we were all in a position for other people to be discussing our repertoire and chops. Mr Wolstenholme is laying it down in a situation that is the stuff of dreams for most of us. Who knows if he deps in a local trad band now and again or perhaps plays along to Latin vids on youtube? Maybe he has a P bass with flats on it just for the moments when he wants to play along with JJ? Who knows?

I have often fancied a REALLY thin bass. Now I know it is possible. Uh oh!

[quote name='Christian Houmann' timestamp='1432413160' post='2781290'] Rob Still makes them fretted! But he is busy. Here is my fretted 5 MB-2 with 33 scale [/quote] I asked him about a fretted Deep 5. Probably just as well because I could not afford one

The sensitivity knob does have a certain[i] je ne sais quoi[/i].

[quote name='PTB' timestamp='1432400374' post='2781179'] Oh boy, that's cool! With apologies for going off topic, what is it please? [/quote] Yep, sorry about the derail from Rob Allen goodness. You can read about it here http://basschat.co.uk/topic/104007-5-string-bass-ukulele/page__hl__bass%20uke. I would LOVE either a Deep 5 or a Mouse but would need them fretted. Mr Allen said no He does create lovely instruments.

I have some basses with luminlay. The one with a rosewood board is great but the one with maple neck and board is ........... not so great in daylight. I should have thought it through! I am subbing to this cos I love your builds.

[quote name='PTB' timestamp='1432112134' post='2778183'] Hmmm....I have just bought & am enjoying a £90 fret less bass uke. I can that this is where I will end up in a few years!

[quote name='Christian Houmann' timestamp='1432134409' post='2778484'] Love it! And really loving my Deep 5 [url="http://s113.photobucket.com/user/Houmann/media/imagejpg19_zps52683883.jpg.html"][/url] [url="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i6kNTPAHVb8"]https://www.youtube....h?v=i6kNTPAHVb8[/url] [/quote] DEEEEEEEEEEEEEP FIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Not much gives me GAS these days, but that does. Or a Mouse for that matter.

I am loving this. I would love to have these skills.

Fair play, that is quite a list!

I tried a pedal steel once. My brain still hurts.
