I thought you were a pan-dimensional, multi-universe being @Dood surely this would present no problem?

Thanks, interesting post @itu

Pardon my extreme ignorance on these matters, my faily simple board has a tuner, chorus, distortion and an envelope filter (individually rather than together). Can something like the B3n do this i.e. each of the apparently three units representing one of my pedals that I can turn on and off without having to do any tap dancing? I get put off by the half inch thick manuals and loads of modelling stuff that I'm not interested in.

I did briefly consider seeing whether I could persuade Mr C to consider brass frets. I don't think he has done so before but I may well be wrong, or from the sainted Mrs ead's perspective it would be highly unlikely that i was right

Thanks naxos10, I think that's a fair reflection.

Thank you kind sir. The specs are quick to do so here goes: Alder body, light colour veneer and a Cocobolo top (with matched headstock) Neck is 3-pc with birdseye maple on the outer bits and plain maple in the centre Rosewood board Pickups are the ACG FB items that are essentailly humbucking in nature Electronics are J East Uni Pre 3-band active passive with variable mids sweep and active/passive tone control I'll do my best to do a review for you all once I've completed the requisite number of running in time hours.

Here's a rather lovely RetroB Mr C made for me and that I formally received yesterday. Looks better still in the flesh. These are ACG pics as I've been too busy playing it to take any pics.

Yeah, but are they any good for metal? I think we should be told...

Just bought a beatiful Sandberg bass from Grant and, bonus, got to meet a fellow BCer. Great bass and a lovely bloke too. Top banana, deal in confidence folks.

Adam bought some strings from me. Easy transaction, great comms fast payment. Top bloke, deal in confidence folks.

Nothing Else Matters by Metallica, it's been lodged there for a few days now.

I'd also recommend giving Mark a call at Classic & Cool Guitars as his prices are normally better than BD for Sandbergs.

I'm not a big Delano fan tbh. My VS now has a Nordy NP4 in and the incoming TT will be getting a set of Bartolini B Axis p/ups as an experiment as I've not tried them before and have picked up a pre-loved set for not much money.

Picking up my new jazz on Sunday...

It is, and I think we all agree it's very Marmite. Whilst I personally wouldn't buy one I have absolutely no issue with them offering that finish. Don't Sandberg make the best Fenders nowadays?.....I'll get my coat before all the Fender zealots arrive.

There's a good value Peavey fretless on here too, plus a few others come to think of it.

My first fretless was one a Yamaha RBX270F just like this one. I got it for £90. Solid basses and much to like about them. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Yamaha-RBX-270F-Fretless-Bass-Guitar/283163749815?hash=item41eddfedb7:g:FL0AAOSwjYdbcG0G

This^ I have bought a couple new, both California IIs and both around £1,100. The Masterpiece range are mad money and frankly I'd rather save a bit longer and buy a genuine vintage Fender (which I did ). For an everyday working bass Sandberg basses are beautifully made, have fantastic necks and as a bonus are pretty light. Both mine are around 3.7kgs or just over 8lbs in old money. Don't do too badly in terms of holding their value either. In fact I'll be picking up a pre-loved one at the weekend.
