Curiously, I may have seen him playing in a Beatles tribute band at Epcot (either him or the other top-notch faker-maker). He's going to be doing a bit of work on one of my fakers sometime soon-ish. AFAIK, all of the parts will be genuine ones. As far as selling goes, I think it being a custom build means its original delivery wasn't a transgression of any laws, but the selling of it with logo was (though since it's a one-off sale by an individual there's be no mileage in pursuing them).

I've played one HB bass, @Jus Lukin's Precision, and the neck was too chunky for me. It seemed solidly made, though. Not in the same class as a MIM Fender, IMHO. I've played some Squiers and they have been pretty good; I sold an Affinity Precision for £60 and the buyer got a darned good bass for that money!

Good point, well made! (I did buy another bass yesterday - I think that takes me to 30.) 🙂

It looks like the nice grain on the front is a veneer, so I may refinish it; I'm thinking seafoam green.

I picked this up yesterday...

The last thing I need is another bass amp!

There seems to be a current trend of trying to big-up the value of Squire (sic) instruments. Me, the fact that hey can't even be bothered to spell the name properly (it's there on the headstock, folks!) tends to ring some alarm bells to start with.

I have this and just a gig-bag (it's already had a headstock break!). PM'd 🙂

I think it's got legs...

I bought this yesterday. I have to say I think it's a rather nice looking bass. I've got to have a look at the electrics, as I think that switch isn't original. Though the grain of the wood on the front is rather nice, it may be a veneer, so I may get it refinished; I'm thinking seafoam green.

At previous bashes I've been to I've never asked anybody for their credentials before letting them have a go on my kit.

Yes, very good (for the money).

Cheers for the pickup!

Curious isn't it - you measure more and you get more results...

It's worth the £50 opening bid, but at £51 I'm out!

Nothing to fret about...

I hear microphone holders are a boom industry!

PM'd!!!!!

The only thing good about that one is that it's not mine!
