Depends on who you are I guess. If you're a massive fan of DD and John Taylor was the reason you picked up a bass then I guess it would be worth more to you... or me. Turns out that the bass is almost definitely not his, John had a look at the bass and is pretty sure it's not his old one. Lucky escape, i got the mail just after I'd bid £850 on it, luckily I was outbid! - Edit. Damn my keyboard and the sticky c key... the above is now in English

A bit of a tangent, but how about looks crap, plays ok(ish).... all Warwicks. Shame about the super deep neck, my jazz is so much nicer.

great choice, and some awesome basslines on that album!

for all that stingray hate, there's the slo special neck profile instead you know?

Does anyone have more geek knowledge than me? Anyone know what happened to JT's old black SB1000 that he last used on the 7 & Ragged Tiger tour? I've been offered what seems pretty much like it could well be his old bass but wondering if anyone has any knowledge on it. It was apparently sold by his tech to a dealer in the US just before the DD reformation when he started using SB1000-RT's, this dealer is trying to sell it. The story seems viable, whether it his bass is a different matter. Any info anyone has would be appreciated. Any abuse for me being a fan-boy welcome too

Thanks Ash, I've just mailed Paul.

Any other thoughts anyone cheaper than £450 for a body respray?

They were my first call... £450! ouch

Yeah I saw that Lozz had some work done by him, so I mailed him this morning. He replied back saying it wasn't something he could do... very odd.

Can anyone recommend someone for a good custom paint job on bass? I have a plain black Jazz Bass Special that I want to go bengal tiger on... Its not an overly intricate piece of work, but I don't want to fork about £500 for it...

Also, do you cringe when someone fetches guitar hero into work for a laugh! [/quote] I can't cringe at that really... that's my job! (and yeah, they all know I play bass... too many basschat trades deliveries for no-one to know!! ;p)

Temptation has got the better of me, so I'm thinking I should write something about Si here to see if he administers it and tells me off...

Here's one of mine. Self build on Jon Shuker's course... My FenRay

[quote name='LukeFRC' timestamp='1360749024' post='1975655'] thanks for that. I should't have gone onto that sort of site... now I kinda want to build a bass again. repeat after me.. I don't need another bass, I don't need another bass..... [/quote]haha!!!
