It might be the lack of detail in the shot distorting, but I looks like there is a black line on it, indicating a w/b/w sandwich.

The Vintage ‘Ray-alike has 3 over 1.

New scratchplate day. Decided that all black was better than tort (did a mock-up with some card). Big shout out to Guitars Electric in Wolverhampton again https://www.guitarselectric.co.uk who sent it it out yesterday using a 24 hour service, even though I didn’t select that option.

Ain’t that the truth.

The F also has a different lower cutaway too (if I remember the look from my first viewing), as it now has the ‘open mouthed whale’ appearance, which it didn’t last time I looked. I wonder if these are possibly CAD mock-ups and they’re still tinkering with the design?

The concept messes with my head, but just look at it 😍. Congrats on a new and festive looking bass; enjoy.

Sorry for your loss @Matthew Canty. Even though you knew it was coming, it still sucks. Do what you need to do to grieve, not what folks might expect.

They are definitely going after EBMM, as there’s a guitar in that lineup that looks like a Silhouette (not that I know anything about guitars of course, I mean, why would I? I’m a bass player. Guitars? Weird cheese graters. Nothing to do with me, move along, nothing to see here… whistles innocently).

Finding the one, only to list it 2 months later.

If you could get it embossed or printed with his initials and the date of his 18th, that’d make it very personal and memorable.

My eyes too, it really works, although I’d have to do something about the headstock logo.

Ah ha! Yes! Not a column, a sound post! I see it all now.

Fully expecting to see a Minotaur hove into view.

Road To Hell - that chap Rea again.

Like that.

One hopes that they are opposable.

I use standard EB cobalt flats on mine, no issues.

The nice thing about all that real estate behind the bridge is that you can add a Bigsby and it will still look bang on.

Just had a quick gander at replacement pickups for these, in case the the supplied ones are crap. It looks like Delano and Haussel do them (the Lawrence ones don't look like they're produced anymore). The Haussels are just over £300 for a set from Public Peace (don't know if that includes shipping) and the Delano from the US are about £270, but would incur taxes. Still cheaper than the Fender original, even if you replace the tuners for Hipshots and include a D Tuner too. If this is anywhere decently put together, it could be a great modding platform.

That is pretty tidy, nice score. However, buying a new bass for a new band, who ever heard of such a thing? Err… umm… (sound of innocent whistling)… oh yeah, that’d be me then. As you were, carry on.

Ãrse! Jacob’s Creek! Are those my feet?

Well played, sir. Good for you. 👏👏👏
