Could make someone’s night though… ah. Ok. Sorry. no contex shitepost.

Wow. Love the Godlyke. Wonder where my blue one went… Anyhow, amber/honeyburst - see below

Man! That’s a beauty

It’s been about 10 years since my last DR trial. Maybe it’s time again - although I seemed to dislike them (hi beams I think) - I’m obviously a bit of a Goldilocks for strings 😂

I’m going through GHS 45-100’s like no tomorrow currently, love them but they die when you breathe near them - 2 rehearsals (so 8 hours play) and they’re useless, well…I’m exaggerating but at £25 a pop 😂

They’re great mate, a little firm for me - so I’ll change as I go. Bass is lovely though - many thanks x

Ian has just delivered a Spector. Absolutely wonderful example of why basschat is brilliant - great guy, knows his beans and the bass is good too 😏

Back in the club. Sometimes you see a bass and you think “I have to have it….” So a year to the day I collected my last Spector (435xl) It’s time to go again.

“Tendinitis city” - great name for a band.

Now (3 days later) A Yamaha BB, but made like a Spector Euro Lx by the Czech factory… erm.

You can buy the bb 414/1024 bridge pickups, you could make it a neck through yamajazz… it’s also 4.9kg too 😳

No. To return it to stock would basically be impossible and you’d spend about £400 putting it right for it to ultimately be worth about £600 if that. If you’re after one, look at one which isn’t hacked up. If it was about £150/£200 it’d be worth the investment I suppose.

Yes. 5/10 - could do better.

Lee, you’ve given me a headache 😉

Don’t play at all unless you absolutely have to (the gigs) erm. That.

Bargain wine red In Boston (Lincolnshire) on Facebook - collect only 🙃

Should’ve kept my 2005 desert gold HH - I wasn’t actually playing much bass at the time, and now it would really suit the band I’m in. d’oh. Looks beautiful - as you well know ☺️

I’ve also done a few years in a moderately successful band who used to spend rehearsals drinking and partaking in chemical recreation. The drummer and myself did not. so we sat around nursing a couple of beers while the rest of the band got blitzed and could barely stand. one Sunday we met at 10am, they were still going from the night before - by 6pm we’d done 45 minutes of playing. I eventually quit. The drummer stayed involved and did another 18 months - surprised at that as he was more sensible than me in most respects.

A Ghost in the machine…

It’s already been bid on, and I don’t *need* it. If it was silly cheap - I’d jump. Thank you though guys - much appreciated. The bb1600 sounded ace last night and something arriving by end of the week which was a bit unforeseen 🤦🏻‍♂️😂
