Just home. And I’m going to clean it up. Smells mildly of cigarettes. As an ex smoker...this is a repugnant stench.

Ah that’s nice enough, I absolutely would’ve bought one a few years ago. Then I got an Epiphone NR and although not that close in construction or sound to a T-Bird, the body shape absolutely did not work for me. So, I’ll just admire it.

Im in work. Will have to wait

The eagle has landed...

Not sultan today, it’s Stuart

Nice!

😯

Think Multi Lam necks are cool - and I’d certainly associate them with earlier BB models. I think a good 1 piece neck is still better than a not so good laminate...I know it was a common feature on Jaydee basses, but I had a supernatural and I couldn’t get it to settle... And I’ve seen a few basses with twists/warps where the wood hasn’t been seasoned or done right with laminate necks. Yamaha obviously seem to get it right. I would like a 424x in red, or white - even black would be ok. I keep an eye out,

I really can’t remember the truss rod now, long time since I had the 425. the 45 degree through body stringing and laminated neck were the differences.

Well...it’s on the home stretch...

I’ve wee’d a bit under less than half a Wal for £3k what? Hahah. stingrays in my head are a £1000 bass. A precision should be about £800 anyhow, what do I know...

£8000 (just a thing I’m saying to all price predictions tonight)

Ah yeah, that. Hahah. I forget

Mrs Travis is a gooden. She chuckles and rolls her eyes when a new one comes in. But she doesn’t care, really. Then something goes wrong with the house or cars, she worries - I sell a bass and sort it...the. I’m a hero. And a month later - I get another bass. I am a hero.

I loved my 1024, but it was like a smoother sounding 414 - then I just preferred the 414, and could get that same sound by backing off the tone control a midge. So...🤷🏻‍♂️

I couldn’t fetch £750 for my 2eq, and it was bloody pristine. Ah well.

No it’s fine. I get the feeling I may still be waiting next week.

I’ve been trying to buy it for a fortnight...

Shurrup. They’ll hear you... but I Want a 93/4 for £800

Nah. Not interested in fretless and I keep one I’m happy with just in case...

Well, that bothered me more. Wouldn’t have minded a fretless with the piezo. But on Ash/Maple/fretted...daft

Yeah, I know. Wonder how much they actually will be. bloody stingrays are £2700 apparently now 😯

Yeah, stupid idea. Piezo sounded crap.

I thought £1500 for my piezo 3eq was too much.

£8000 I bet...
