  1. It was my grandads...it’s about 40 years old 😉
  2. Eating a very late dinner and I’ll get me ruler out, and shipping could happen. You got a nice bb 414 spare? 😉
  3. Haha, I think the brown bit is some of the grain, but while the repair isn’t invisible - it is smooth and solid.
  4. Have heard the Ernie ball cobalt flats are nice, @lee650 uses them
  5. I previously had this listed this for what I paid, but if I can get £350, I’m happy. If you need it shipping, it’ll be £20 in the UK. it’s not perfect, but it is ace - and is now wearing a brand new set of BS rotosound strings which aren’t for me but I can see what the fuss is about. Manchester M27 if you want to see it... but the pics show it warts and all. A unique (ish) bass, I’ve had my fun - it’s your town. has various rings and songs - but looks brilliant for 25 ish years old. There is an older repair at the Headstock which is smooth and solid - doesn’t affect the bass at all but needs a mention. had a guy offer a trade who then disappeared, so...back up for sale/trade.
  6. You still won’t like it in a while 😂😉
  7. @TheGreek business venture for us. I’ll drink em, you market them as “the original washer strap lock” easy.
  8. Use them on all of mine except one - only because it shipped with schaller ones which I’ll be taking off. i used to use Dunlop’s but they stick out a lot
  9. Will the original screws not fit into those buttons? Still keep the locking mechanism but use the epiphone screws? or, use some grolsch beer bottle washers and don’t bother with the screw in type.
  10. No, she’s a regular visitor to hospital. 😉
  11. Sounds brilliant. Just need to take a bit of relief out of the neck, the action is fairly normal, but I want it a bit lower. Think the attitude is at risk 😧
  12. This is so tempting. Cannot believe it’s still here.
  13. Well I won’t get the chance to do much with it tonight. Iris is restless/fed up so it’ll have to wait as the sound of a bass isn’t what she wants...I can just tell.
  14. Just setup and a few details. spent all last night at A&E with Iris so not had time and I’m very, very tired (3 hours sleep in 36, so maybe I should go to bed)
  15. Looks finished, it’s not. Has a snag list. But it plays.
  16. You’ll fall out of love with it...😉
  17. Right after a traffic jam and two very upset little travs needing sorting for bed, I’ve no time tonight...missed my own deadline. got two new drummers coming down tonight and I won’t have time to finesse things before I have to pick up the guitarist (his car is currently being sold for scrap as the engine is gone and it’s worth less than a new engine...he plays a £4000 Les Paul and a £2000 tele through a £1500 amp...but has a £400 car 🤷🏻‍♂️) so. attitude and orange 414 as per. Not exactly a hardship.
  18. When dealing with @bigsmokebass a sense of humour is “key”.
  19. When @bigsmokebass sends you Machine heads, he throws in 80’s sweets. (might just be for me...not sure...)
