Here's my latest purchase - a 2012 American Standard Precision - a Factory Short Run model.

Very pleased with it & many thanks to Barrie at Bass Gear for his assistance with the purchase.

That's lovely! What's that finish called? It's certainly unique!

My 2012 Am Std P complete with Bass Doc parchment scratchplate. Apologies for the poor pic quality, the light's non existent.

:lol: :P Hey Steve, good to meet you and....what a great gig. That's the kind of band I'd love to be in. Lovely basses and great playing too fella.

That's very kind of you to say and it was a pleasure to meet you too. Glad you enjoyed the gig.

We won't be setting the world alight but we seem to be pretty popular on the Blues circuit and have a good time doing it so it's worth the getting home at 4:30am.

I'm back up your way in August with It's A Beautiful Day - not sure of the precise date or venue so maybe see you then. I may well be touring with the Aerodyne Precisions so no tort plates there!!

the scratchplate looks very close to the bottom edge, particularly on the lower horn, is that supposed to be like that?

Is it not just the lining of the case that obscures part of the bottom edge?
