Meanie! I'm officially giving up on it for today. The wait resumes tomorrow...

[quote name='ezbass' timestamp='1325772734' post='1487418'] Is it what you PMed me about? [/quote] *taps nose*

No. After reading reviews of the courier service who have it, I'm not confident either. Here are the headlines of some of the reviews. ha ha.

Still in Brum, according to the tracking, but still scheduled for delivery today. Is there a lag updating tracking info sometimes?

I just know you're all going to be disappointed. ha ha. Please bear in mind that a massive change in my world is taking the bridge cover off my Precison, for example... According to the tracking, it's still in flippin' Brum. *sulks*

[quote name='Kiwi' timestamp='1325759244' post='1487072'] WoT I think you might be hamming it up a little now. Mwah ha. [/quote] Ha... good guess, but no.

You must know a different Sue Ryder to me, Doc. The lassie I know is like a hoose end...

Hmmm... It's supposed to be delivered today, but as of 7.18am it has only made it as far as Birmingham... *drums fingers*

[quote name='Chris Horton' timestamp='1325716264' post='1486678'] What does "BBOT" mean ? [/quote] [i]Bent bit of tin[/i], aka. the classic Fender bridge. Despised by some, but they can be found at the business end of some of the greatest moments in the history of bass.

There's a thread on these already.. And a bonus comedy thread.

Just because.... [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/164033-the-fender-select-caption-competition/"]http://basschat.co.uk/topic/164033-the-fender-select-caption-competition/[/url]

'I'm sorry pet, but I [i]did[/i] ask them for a room with a Telly.'

For no other reason than 'just because'.. [url="http://www.fender.com/products/select"]Fender's new Select range[/url].

Maybe he's just realised that while he was up to no good with that lassie, his plate of beans'n'mash have got cold?

[quote name='Panamonte' timestamp='1325681421' post='1485973'] I'm amazed that no one has commented on the ludicrous publicity shot. What's that all about???!!! [/quote] To be fair the bloke is smoking a tab, which suggests he's done the decent thing before turning his attentions to the guitar.

Meh. They look like the Jap fotoflames.

A. Yes.

[quote name='warwickhunt' timestamp='1325613309' post='1485229'] Q1. Is it a PJ? [/quote] A. Errr... No.

It's almost as radical as that...

Nope! Dougal's (very nice) Sadowsky is still for sale...

Heh... well like I say it's radical for me, but I do have my limits...

Tremendous, innit? Neil is a as cool as ever.. Mr. Stills trying to keep up with Jonesy.. excellent.

Ha... It's probably the only thing that could have stopped me going down the custom-build route. It's a bass I've lusted after for years...
