Try and buy another with this spec off-the-shelf.

I'd really like a white one.

Nah, haven't seen many. This one was imported by the previous owner.

He was on my list of possibles, but I’ve yet to see a photo of him wearing glasses.

You know when you get a notification mixed up with The Notable Deaths Thread? That just happened to me.

I thought he was a Musicman endorsee...?

...if it is, I'd pay not to listen to that.

On what looks to be a piccolo bass..?

Not Hendrix.... the other fella. Just curious.

Well I never. Every day's a school day...!

Cheers, all! Yep, the board is a beauty. The more I play it, the more I like it.

Hello! Picked this Japanese beaut up on a whim the other day, because you can't have too many Sunburst Precisions.... right? Spec... Jazz neck, oval tuners, light weight (8½lbs, thanks to the basswood body, which is surprisingly pretty). So far, the usual cliches apply. It's very resonant, balances well, feels great, it's rich and punchy... I'm gigging it on Boxing Day, and as ever the proof will be in the (Christmas) pudding. I'll report back..

Is that guard definitely not anodised?

Where's dear old Alan Rogan when you need him?

Absolutely crushed I couldn't make any of these.

Wait.. there's a decent-looking single-cut out there somewhere? Pics, or it hasn't happened 😄

It’s not my job to sell ‘em.

Damn right it is!

These videos, man. You skip to the bit that says 'Let's hear it!' and you're greeted with someone tickling it like they're trying to get it to roll onto its back and purr. Just play the bloody thing, like wot you would if you were in a band and that.

I'm guessing he just wants to know a bit about its history. I know I would.

I imagine people do wear fake Rolexes which fool your average Joe and Jolene..?

I didn’t say it was a reasonable prejudice 😄

Truss adjustment hole at the headstock. No matter how good the bass, I automatically associate it with the worst of budget basses, and I won't touch it. Yes, silly. But I can't help it.

…and worth every penny!
