  1. I always find that sales technique works for me...
  2. Wal for my 40th, Jenny already has the money put away. Order goes in in 2 years time x
  3. 100%. Will be getting a tort from him.
  4. Yeah. Yeah. So did I when I paid for the pickguard...what a dummy.
  5. Ah oooh eeeeeh. Woooo. @Al Krow’s credit card is already on fire.
  6. My mate Rog has found a White pearl guard for me... he’s sending it for nowt. (not really, he’s charged $50 plus shipping...but whatever)
  7. If you’re selling it to me..yes.
  8. We’ve discussed this before. Natural and rosewood on J Basses is a no. And it’s a size thing...I like the wood throbbing in my hands to be girthier as you well know. Anyhow, I know you love a good sunburst...
  9. Don’t worry - imagine actually being me. It’s a futile existence. I actually don’t enjoy my processes at all - some people are so hard to understand, they barely understand themselves.
  10. Placebo’s first 2 albums. Theres a song called “Hang On To Your IQ” and that’s a great bass tone - Jazz Bass played with a pick into an Ampeg. Not my playing style at all - but great. Maybe - upon review...a very mild chorus effect too.
  11. Looks like black over white they rather than a roughed up sunburst. @andytoad hope you find it mate - nice that.
  12. Got 2 Sadowsky’s, and I love the HPJ. The RV4 is awesome and lovely, but I prefer the fuller HPJ body and the sound. Its immaculate bar one tiny little “is that an eyelash?!” Mark where it rests on your knee. I’m only interested in a specific trade - another HPJ but with a maple board. Preferably natural. Depending on condition - could just be a straight swap. Light, under 9lbs, VTC, “MetroLine” 2016. Morado (Pau Ferro), Alder body, light sadowsky case, tools etc.
  13. I’ve sat playing bass for an hour. The Sadowsky J and P/J. Really like the P/J sound over everything. I don’t know if this entire MM thing is a folly of boredom. Will get the parts together and see how I feel. Hmm.
  14. No. I suppose it’s not.
  15. I had a bridge up for sale - wilkinson. I’d paid £15, tried it on a bass and listed for £12 posted: Didnt realise some web stores had them up for £10 posted. Genuine error. Although I did see a bass on eBay for £750 which ended up on here at £1500 a week later. Should've said something. It sold.
  16. Yeah - Andy is doing the woodwork bit, so should look tidy enough once fully refinished.
  17. Cheers mate - ended up with an Aguilar and East setup from @bagsieblue think eventually it’ll be Ice blue metallic respray and a pearl pickguard... see how we go - will look like a bit of a patchwork for a bit. No more pennies in the pot.
  18. Yeah. A Sadeacy. Absolutely gorgeous.
  19. Well that’s a “phew” moment. Our very own @Andyjr1515 is tackling the rout for me.
  20. I think my issue with the “banshee” is two fold. It’s a stupid name for a bass which obviously needs flats on it - and a foam mute; the “sleeping sheepie” would’ve been more apt. And that bloody headstock is nearly as big as the body and will cause much neck dive. A more slender version of the J headstock would work.
  21. Jesus, you’ve snapped the key in the door and broken the window to make it better.
  22. Here - 3 bass headstock alternatives currently in production by the same company they could’ve picked. and an example of how one of those designs works fine on one of their own quirky pseudo-retro designs...
