What an amazing job! I've often considered having the bridge pickup removed from one of my Thunderbirds with a similar cover up, but I imagine it would probably cost more that the bass!

Was it Strange But True? I used to love that show. edit: I'm guessing not, don't think it had an audience...

I'm infuriated just reading that.

I've often considered setting up my own YouTube channel, purely for bass demos played pickstyle and with no DI. Just to balance things out. There is a chap out there doing something simlilar but his videos seem to have turned into a showcase for Darkglass and all end up sounding the same.

I knew it would be this! I heard it earlier too.

I take it all back - it actually sounds great!

Any waltz time though? Perhaps the intro to Behind The Wall Of Sleep.

I can't think of any Sabbath in waltz time...

https://uk.interparcel.com/ I've always used Interparcel - never had a problem. I usually pick the UPS option. +1 on all the packing advice. And I would never ship without a hardcase.

I'm not going to watch as I really regret selling mine and this video won't help matters.

Same shape as a Jackson Kelly bass.

But surely from the seller's POV, the OP was never a confirmed buyer? The seller had some correspondence with a potential buyer who asked for some more pics - an entirely reasonable request. If someone on here posted a rant about having an experience similar to the chap selling the Hamer I imagine they would be brought down to earth pretty quickly. Nobody has suggested you shouldn't be able to voice your opinion on this matter, but if you think the seller has acted reasonably, I would be wary of getting into a discussion with you about something you were selling for fear of being labelled a time waster. Looking at it from the other side, have you never made initial enquiries about an item for sale somewhere and subsequently decided against it?

I saw this bass on facebook earlier and thought of you!

Bizarre business practice...

Interesting but they all remind me of a famous luthier looking back fondly at their first creation. Still, the blue one's pretty. Those knobs would get right in my way though.

Chris is excellent. I still haven't forgiven him for moving away from Peckham.
