    Thanks. This is about as close to a YOB bass as I might actually like!
  2. therealting
    Do you have a weight?
  3. therealting
    80s Yamahas are built like tanks. Close enough?

    When the UK leaves the EU though, then doesn’t that mean that we no longer need to pay EU vat? So it would be UK vat and of course import taxes

    You’re in for a treat.

    Yup, this one has a roasted maple neck replacement. Feel wise it is indistinguishable from the incredible genuine C neck on my 64.

    I tried one at a previous LBGS and really liked it. Would have one if it was closer to £1k!

    He did the refins for my 60 and 64. They’re stunning.

    If I didn’t already know that I’m not really a Jazz person, I’d be all over that like checking on nitro lacquer. John’s builds are just about the closest thing you can get to an actual pre-CBS Fender with consistent build quality.

    Ah well, since we’re dreaming: six string, 33-30” multiscale 16mm spacing at bridge, 8mm spacing at nut Stu-Hamm-Urge style J/P/J pickup setup... or Roscoe Beck Sadowsky pre with VTC RMC piezo saddles Chambered Singlecut roasted ash body, roasted maple bolt on neck ebony board, no front inlays, side LEDs bridge stringable through body at an angle (a la my Yamaha BB435) to allow easy use of long scale strings Ultralite tuners total weight of 4 pounds 😉

    Aren’t you going to post this here?

    And also no offence - Basschat classifieds is littered with the blood of people who have played for 20+ years, finally commissioned their dream bass, and discovered their tastes changed and the resale value of an unusually-specced custom bass is a fraction of the commission price 🙃 Perfect for someone like me who enjoys scooping up secondhand deals on high end gear.

    Holy moly.

    I’ve tried a few Limelights and have three vintage Fenders that were worked on by John. I have to say the Bravewoods are in a completely different league... they are more expensive of course, but a bargain for what you get IMHO.

    This is a seriously cool bass now.
  18. therealting
    It’s worth trying tapewounds!

    Bike shops can’t get rid of boxes and packing materials quickly enough at the minute.

    Good decision.
  21. therealting
    That just redirects to the Warmoth front page for me. No worries, I know the one you mean. I still like the Dinky J though.
  22. therealting
    The Warmoth Dinky J is very similar to the Sadowsky body size.
  23. therealting
    This is gorgeous.
  24. therealting
    There really aren’t that many 32” five strings to choose from at this budget level.

    Also don’t forget that Ibanez made a high end SRFF with Nordstrands.
