Thanks for that. Not a name I’m familiar with and, now that I’ve left the Big Smoke, not one I’ll be considering (certainly not now). I’m just glad that it wasn’t a more well know London name, as that would be even more disappointing somehow.

I recognise this scenario, it’s happened to me twice. Once, was post the wife receiving a bonus from work, the words, “You can buy a new guitar,” were uttered and I was out shopping the same day. Another time, I was looking at a Stingray (coincidentally) and the words, “If you like it, get it,” were uttered and I pressed the buy it now button not long after (I had to check in case it was a trap 🤣). I no longer have either of the purchases.

Life in the Air Age - BeBop Deluxe

All Day and All of the Night - The Kinks

Gah! Annoyingly, the short scale version doesn’t feature the same construction.

Excellent, thanks. I can feel the gigbag GAS mounting as I type.

These new Fender ones do look very good indeed. The sides almost look solid in the pictures, what are they like in the flesh?

Yes, they were a Bill Lawrence design. The original RB signature bass was made by Stevens and was a 6 string IIRC.

Early in the Morning - Bad Co

Port Out Starboard Home (POSH) - Lionel Jeffries from Chitty Chitty Bang Bang

Lovely collection of ‘80s classics right there.

Money’s Too Tight (To Mention) - Simply Red

That’s a very good point. You can always put it back.

Certainly looks that way.

Likewise.

If that box stays sealed, the teasing will be even more strongly felt at NJ’s end (sounds rude, wasn’t meant to be).

That’s what I thought.

Well that’s just cruel.

Get ready to become addicted to the charms of the Mustang, I know I am.

Tech21 Bass Fly rig or the Valeton clone, the Dapper would cover you there.

Welcome from another north of the border BCer, there are a good number of us (although I’ve only been here 10 months).

Black Hole Sun - Soundgarden

Fade To Grey - Visage

Different nut widths too, the PJ being J width the Vintera being Precision-esque.

Everything I’ve played from the Vintera range has been good. It’s nice to hear that this is still the case. Happy NJBD!
