  1. Sad but true (unless you’re Geddy, Lemmy, Phil Lynott, Sting, etc).
  2. I reckon that the offending router did you a favour, those new, wooden covers finish the look perfectly.
  3. You are correct on both counts.
  4. Where he says it should be 40mm and not 38mm at the nut because of the 19mm spacing at the bridge sounds like rubbish. Fenders and Sadowskys are 38mm with 19mm spacing IIRC, as are many other J types.
  5. I’ve recently started playing guitar a fair bit more (bless me father, for I have sinned) which spurred me onto a bundle of more upgrades for my Casino Coupé, the new Artec pickups sound fabulous and cost less than £30! It’s taken over from my Tele as my go to 6 string.
  6. Bass Direct are selling an almost identical Jake (not chambered) for £1195, https://www.bassdirect.co.uk/bass_guitar_specialists/MARUSZCZYK_Jake_4P_Fiesta_Red.html save yourself a wad of cash and buy mine instead. 😉
  7. I tried a couple a while back and was hoping to hate them, safe to say I did not, they were pukka.
  8. WTF? You can’t let this go, surely?
  9. If it were my double neck, I'd swap the necks over and have the fretless on top like @Bassassin's Gordy. YMMV. That handover with @stewblack looks like you're both pulling a massive wishbone 😂.
  10. My Jake L has a little neck dive on the knee, but doesn’t move once it’s on a strap. Time for some gratuitous self promotion 😉
  11. That is lovely looking and a subtle deviation from the norm. I also like your comment (isolated and now in bold) just to remind folks that these are great instruments and potential buyers should not to be completely swayed by the odd negative comment.
  12. I’m intrigued by the notion of them not wanting an upright because of social distancing .
  13. Trip northwards starting Thursday if any potential buyers want to meet up along the M40/M6/A74(M)/A9 corridor (bloody long corridor!).
  14. Very true, but I think I might have either refinished it, or held it back for a later release. There is also a 5 string at Bass Direct with a faded back, but it's way more tastefully done than the 4 string, which looks like it hasn't been sanded properly. But, as you say, I don't have to buy it and I won't.
  15. I’m surprised that this one was let out into the wild so early on in this new incarnation. Also, given that this is B stock, it’s not exactly had a huge amount knocked off the price.
  16. The back of that bass looks like a poorly executed relic 🤮.
  17. Every day's a school day. I never knew that either.
