I don't watch much but for some reason I enjoy Repair Shop. There are two ladies who repair stuffed toys and I wondered if one of them was the inspiration for your avatar

You may possibly find someone who would trade your Jazz neck for their Precision neck. Have you ever watched a TV programme called 'Repair Shop', btw?

No, Steve was his replacement.

I like the bass tone on this track, particularly, but the whole album. Kind of perfect woody P bass.

I had this trio for a while

Bought a set of strings from Dan in the easiest and quickest of deals. Arrived next day! Thanks Dan. And Mike.

No. I am not against the odd frivolous purchase (as my feedback thread will testify) but this was bass too far

If it doesn't need to be Precision bass shaped I'd toss Yamamahaha into the ring, their BB424 does a great P sound and more, of course, with the J. Also a Westone Thunder 1 - one of the early ones with the split humbucker.

Well, to misquote Benjamin Franklin: there's nothing more certain on Basschat - as in Life - than bad puns and Taxus. A little botanical humour there. Well, almost.

My blues rock band are adding the Rory Gallagher song 'Secret Agent' to our set as it was suggested by a chap who comes to most of our gigs. Very straightforward - to the point that the changes will trip me up! Great tune though, not one I had heard before.

Not dear, either BIN £220 or offer. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Westone-Spectrum-LX-Bass-Guitar/193412490440?hash=item2d084864c8:g:jdkAAOSwMQ5eiwWI

If you want to move on those Entwistles, give me a whistle

I don't want to seem contrary but if the Bronco were properly set up - neck relief, saddle height, neck angle are set properly and the frets levelled - you wouldn't get fret buzz. Nowt to do with body shape and/or neck dimensions.

Posted this pic elsewhere but the addition of this Entwistle pup into this Hondo Alien has transformed it. Shortscale, headless and 2 octave neck - designed to play mind games!

Super, I'll delete mine!

One would have hoped for a better bedside manner

Now there is a good subject for a thread

Strangely enough there were 3 of us coppers who had ME at the same time. One died, one is still badly afflicted and it pretty much dominates her life. I was the lucky one. I can't get those years back but, on the plus side, I have a very different outlook on life now. Your doctors name wasn't Smith from East Tilbury, by chance?

I think 'Silver Series' were identified by having 'Silver Series' written on the headstock - the silver logo was common to others. I've had a couple and they were nice. One, a Precision, was outstanding - 'the one that got away'.

Has a friend of ours moved to Germany? Sure I saw this name on the headstock: Philips Clertone-Konvertierungen

Yes, stick it down the tube once the seat is off.

What about something like a drum throne stand?

'Open Fire' - yes, destruction by firing squad seems the best fate for such a thing.

Luvverly. Actually I got one of these recently and it sounds pretty much the same as the Luvverly Longhorn but in a different shaped package. Still Short scale, still weighs as much a a fag packet.

The funniest thing about that is I know what I look like, so can imagine quite clearly what it would be like to open a door and find me dressed in just a pair of cowboy boots and a Stetson.😂 In fact, I used to go line dancing, do own a pair of cowboy boots and a hat so could dust it all off and give it a test run... ... on seconds thoughts, maybe not.
