Sold my Uke bass to John in the most straightforward of transactions. A pleasure doing business.

Luvverly, not heard that before. Never mind Led Zep, that could be a cut and paste for Rival Sons, Greta Van Hire et al.

I absolutely love this one - great pulsing bass, lyrics still poignant, fab ott drums towards the end Rattled my bong, that's for sure

This is quite effective:

Thanks Warren. Call me shallow and superficial, I would hold out for black/black/maple. Believe it or not I am currently selling anything that isn't. Might get confusing eventually....

Worth a little more than that now. Amazed you have the paperwork - or at least pics of it.

I always felt that Wishbone Ash 'Live Dates' was a totally brilliant album but all the studio stuff sounds thin and lifeless. IMO etc etc.

Bought some leads from Lozz - great price, promptly dispatched, beautifully packaged - great guy yo deal with

Yes, a new build is always an option I think the black/tort/maple are the new MIM ones that are P/J, which I don't particularly like. It is the tone from that odd little split coil that appeals as well as the look. I had one of the Squiers a couple of years back and it was surprisingly good - didn't sound much different to a MIJ Mustang I tried. Shouldn't have sold it, really. Could put that on my headstone!

Certainly looks that way. I'll keep my eyes peeled for USA ones or Squiers and decide at the time how much I want to spend. Ta.

Hmm, no-one? Anyone owned an American Black/black/maple one?

I don't suppose he did a lot of string bending. I am by no means an aficionado but surf music is something of a guilty pleasure - he was a pretty cool guy. RIP.

The hat. I need to know where they sell those hats. So I can void going in.

Beat me to it. Or is that a bad choice of expression?

Indeed. I am a hard bitten, cynical ex-copper and at times had a lump in my throat as I watched these people recounting how their lives and the lives of their families had been manipulated and destroyed.

We always call him the 'Fab One' in my household. Not that we speak about him much. I've never enjoyed much of his output and I think he is a prize tool. Nevertheless his basslines weave through the songs so melodically and become such an integral part of them that it is hard not to respect the musicality. I would have said 'impossible' but clearly that isn't the case.

Any chance you might be able to take a pic of the business end of things? I really like this idea. Saves the whole floor space footprint problems and always faces the front!

I've not been able to hear that high for a decade or more so a SC is fine and dandy for me

That is very neat. What did you do to get that?
