  1. There's someone on one of the FB groups who did incinerate a Hondo II; he posted a pic of it in his woodburner...
  2. I got a reply thanking me for the info.
  3. I messaged him too - no reply yet.
  4. I expect he's played lots of instruments. He doesn't seem very materialistic though, sticking with his Hofner and the Ric he got for nothing in the 60s.
  5. Looks like a clueless Antique dealer (who maybe thinks they know better)...
  6. Well, it's now got people asking who Snot Dextrose is, so it's served some purpose.
  7. I spotted this one on gumtree. https://www.gumtree.com/p/guitar-instrument/status-the-groove-5-string-bass-1998/1323903200
  8. I nearly bought a Stick a year or two ago, but the planets didn't quite align, so it didn't happen. The first player I heard with one was Alphonso Johnson, I saw King Crimson when they did some warm-up gigs as Discipline, and I've also got a Jim Lampi album.
  9. Thanks! 🙂 Yes, they are very similar, but the Eclipse is heavier (thicker body). I really want a headless Status 5-string.
  10. ...and the new member of the family.
  11. Here's something on my mapleglo...
  12. Oh no - you've halved its value!
  13. He plays in a rockabilly band!
  14. Wals aren't for me either, but if anybody is looking for a fretless there was one in a shop yesterday. I've bought a few things off Steve and he's helped me out with missing parts & suchlike. http://guitarcentresouthsea.co.uk/Electric Guitars/bass guitars.html
  15. I don't believe it! (My ex used to call me Victor sometimes...)
  16. Funnily enough, the seller was offloading it because his band(s) said it had too many strings. I part-ex'd an Epi EB0 against it.
  17. Well, I got it! First impressions are a feeling of quality...
  18. Haha. I suppose it'll make my set of 5-strings up to 5...
  19. I've got to keep away from bloddy forums - they keep giving me ideas!
  20. There's occasionally a genuine Fender 60s cardboard shim which makes its appearance on ebay...
  21. Oh dear - I've arranged to collect a Groove 5-string tomorrow...
  22. They sound great through your cab!
  23. And twins.
