    Better adjustment on string to string height, also about 10mm more intonation travel...but I always feel that there’s a lot of body space and it’s a bit bigger. Also, once it’s on - the bolts hold the bridge in place. The epi one will just fall off when you remove the strings.

    Whey!

    Looks like a 1990’s Jackson/Charvel Thunderbird

    Not mine - got very close to buying this last night...but it’s on FB marketplace, Guy is a really nice bloke - if I’d not bought my Casady last week, I’d have had this. It’s gorgeous. He’s in Leeds.

    You beat me to it hahaha

    I don’t mind the star bass. Would love to see a Casady 5 but done properly. I’d have a C on mine rather than a low B. I’m sure a decent luthier could do one. Mesinger/Marcuzyck do the Joker - looks similar to the smaller Yammy.

    But the east Jaffa, looks like a pelican trying to swallow a wire coat hanger. So, sorry, I’m out.

    They’re a bit bling for me...but the jazz box looking doofer was to try and replicate the Wes Montgomery and Charlie Christian type Jazz guitar sounds.

    No “rolls eyes” response 😒 you naughty boy

    Same with the 2 YGD John Pattitucci models
  11. AndyTravis
    I dunno. They weren’t far off.

    And as ever with Gibson, lasted a year. If I had to guess, 2008/9
  13. AndyTravis
    Yeah they were set neck instead of multi laminate through neck, smaller head, same electronics. Sort of a sucked sweetie version, softer edges. there was a 5 string too and a short scale. Think they were £799 ish when full fat t-bird was £1100. Black or Wine Red.

    Knew I had it somewhere...

    Was going to say, sounds like a bass VI type sound through a guitar amp. Very cool, in that context.
  16. AndyTravis
    If the guy/girl can carve to that level...why is it a boggo standard neck with pen on the headstock. disgraceful.

    @Al Krow
  18. AndyTravis
    Yeah - very new to me, and apparently a recent addition to the product line up.

    I’d go without, always find figured tops with tort/Pearl look too busy and “Nashville” if that makes sense.

    Frustratingly there was a local guy on Facebook with a used hiscox...will find something though.
  21. AndyTravis
    Yeah it is - would have to source a hard case and factor in some way. Also would insist on it being an insured carrier. Definitely an option though.
  22. AndyTravis
    Erm. @Al Krow
  23. AndyTravis
    Think these were mid 2000’s. Nice looking things - wouldn’t mind the 34” version

    Hiya - just sat looking at the receipts from Christmas purchases, and the plans for home improvement in 2021... I have gone a bit mad since the initial lockdown, so as I’ve just bought a new bass and have 2 other p/j’s, thought I’d see what the interest would be in this beautiful thing. it’s 9lbs, sounds brilliant and has a 35 scale, it has EMG pickups, maple/walnut/alder (?) body wings. And the non trim tonepump pre. A couple of small dinks on the rear of the body, but is in great nick overall. It has no case/bag - it came with something I’d describe as a “firewood” case which was so scruffy, I binned it. I could source something for shipping I suppose. the 35” scale doesn’t feel odd, I suppose I’m used to fender sized bodies so with the smaller NS body, it all balances out.
  25. AndyTravis
    Yeah. They could do one. They have a habit of almost getting it right...but not quite.
