  1. https://on.soundcloud.com/ALQc1meiHgVUjfWKA having just booked our summer holiday… I just tried to get my head in that “first cocktail in the sun” came out like a pseudo Foos track. pretty happy with that Ripper, Yamaha acoustic and my trusty £40 Pacifica…everything else is GarageBand.
  2. Love these basses 😍
  3. £3999 would be it for me
  4. 🤢
  5. Work has settled down after a bonkers week. Will set about this with aplomb at some point

    In Memoriam

    Oh no. F*cks sake. many a conversation with the man. Very sad. love to all close to him x
  7. In fact…the last time I played one of these…this was my face (thanks @binkybongo)
  8. The only basses I can really stand with maple boards and matching heads. This is lovely… I’m not even in a position to buy, but lord I want it.
  9. Lloyd bought a Yamaha from me - absolutely easy transaction; he’s got one of my “shouldn’t have sold that” basses. but I’m glad it’s gone to a good home!
  10. Rosetti are the UK distributor for Ric. This will be full tilt recommend retail. But if they’re above £5k I absolutely can’t go for that 🤦🏻‍♂️
  11. That’s really something Warren, congratulations x
  12. if it works… bridge lift/split - very rare, but i have seen it. truss Rod works…8mm box wrench (like a Gibson) the machineheads are usually rattly - that’s a quirk. Just live with it.
  13. Been on a while that… Looks cool. but not on the danger list for me.
  14. This would’ve been EMG’d and lake placid blue with a Pearl pickguard 💆🏻‍♂️
  15. There was one in Liverpool for £100. now somewhere else in Liverpool for £200. there was a 90’s bb350 for £60 today… I messaged the guy the second I saw it…but it was gone, obviously 😫
  16. Bb414 is a kind of bb1600 reissue
  17. yup. I’ve been walking around feeling like shite with a properly sore throat all day 🫤 - grim.
  18. It was an absolute pleasure Andy. Great fun - having been in similar positions before myself I was totally with you on the ride. I must admit - had it not gone home with you (it 100% would have…with someone) I was actually thinking how to pay for it myself. A very cool bass.
  19. So I could’ve stolen this and you wouldn’t have minded? DAMN!
  20. If they’ve changed the headstock on the godin A4 alike. I’m goosed.
  21. They were - I first met @skelf in about 2007 at a Manchester Bass Day. I was a much skinnier young oik then. I spent this morning saying hello/catching up. The basses on the stand were INSANE. So beautifully made. The necks are honestly some of the best I’ve ever touched - I didn’t play them (dangerous territory I fear) - but a J type 4 in the purple to blue would ABSOLUTELY suit me - and they’re so well priced; I’ve not a clue why I’m not already in the queue. Also met his better half who does some stunning finishing work. Lovely lovely people.
  22. Oh MAHHHN! Now…one minor error I only have Speakon cables. I have ordered some Speakon to Jack so have to wait. Im reliably informed by Walshy who says it’s a LOUD amp.
  23. They fetch decent money. Send me some pics in a PM? Andy
  24. I have to start bloody preparing now in anticipation
