I've got an Eden EX1104 1x10 cab which I picked up at one of the bass bashes; it works with my Elf and there's never a feeling that it's a bit lacking. I've also got a Trace Elliot Boxer, which ain't bad. The Phil Jones ones are rather neat and the briefcase models are the right size to sit next to (or under) a desk.

A clear winner!

This one is a keeper (parts)...

I do like this one. It's got a bolt-on neck!

Here y'go... Sorry - I mis-read; thought it said beat-looking P bass!

Aye - each to their own!

I'm just calculating the optimal angle and it'll be there! I've also got to fix those darned un-fanned machines...

or it might be anything...

Yep Highway One was my immediate thought. It'd look better with fanned tuners, wouldn't you say? My recent purchase of a MIM for £100 was a better buy, though.

Yep - we don't even know if it is a Tokai, other than the word of a counterfeiter. Also, the fact that it has been defaced means that the description of "mint" is a lie.

I'm trying to eschew the urge to buy one...

The scratches could be because it's been in a parts box, but it must've been used as a base for drilling or something to get those marks. An alternative could be if it's been used to prop up a table leg with an adjustable height screw thing, or maybe a vise or other clamp... (But a vintage Fender neck plate isn't the first thing I'd reach for to do that...)

The Fender logo makes it a counterfeit and the string tree on the headstock looks cheap.

Wals were never for me.

I'm thinking about buying one...

They're unmentionables too...

Maybe he's not even allowed to be mentioned there!

I'm not a mod, but I thought things about he who shall not be mentioned were not allowed to be mentioned...

I'm now inspired to try out my (non-existent) woodworking skills and make a new creation!

I recently bought a beat-up Fender Precision MIM and it is a decent bass. I've also got one I made from parts, including a MIM neck, Badass bridge, a drop-D tuner and Fender USA pickups - it is really good. And then there's my Frankenstein P. I've no hankering for any more Precisions, because I'm happy with those (and I never intended to get any to start with!), but if I were I'd be looking at either: Sandberg; I had a go on a couple of theirs at the Brum show and they were rather good. The Geezer Butler pickups - he endorses Lakland (though I'm not struck on the look of their rounded bridges).

Watch for the IAPs...

Well, they are doing some tax breaks for small businesses, aimed at catering/ents... As far as the law goes, it's an emergency measure for the greater good, though it's sad that some decent folks get to lose out...
