skankdelvar Posted November 20, 2012 Posted November 20, 2012 Irrespective of his many luth-tastic skills and talents, Howard the Bass Doc is a national treasure. He is also known to a phalanx of middle-aged ladies as 'The Cock Of The North', for reasons which become entirely apparent if one can persuade him to whip it out for verificatory purposes.

Grassie Posted November 26, 2012 Author Posted November 26, 2012 Are we being ignored? Feels like it... Quote
Protium Posted November 30, 2012 Posted November 30, 2012 I too am awaiting a scratchplate, my PMs haven't been read though so maybe it's another issue with internet/builders? Quote
Matt P Posted December 2, 2012 Posted December 2, 2012 if you have his phone number then i'd try that (should get an answer) if you haven't got his number send me a PM and i'll send it over. Matt Quote
Protium Posted December 4, 2012 Posted December 4, 2012 On behalf of a few people on here, could someone he knows please contact him to get an update? Quote
Sibob Posted December 5, 2012 Posted December 5, 2012 I've also got PM's not read since 16th Nov Si Quote

Matt P Posted December 5, 2012 Posted December 5, 2012 i've just spoken to the gentleman in question, he is suffering from a lack of computer at the moment due to component failures, i'm guessing this will mean no access to contact details or addresses for many of you fine people. it should be sorted soon but if anyone is in desperate need of contact then drop me a PM and i'll give you his phone number (this is probably the most reliable method of contact at the moment) Matt Quote

WalMan Posted December 10, 2012 Posted December 10, 2012 If anyone happens to speak to Howard please could they ask if he got, filled in and posted on my compo claim to Royal Mail for the plate he sent that postie snapped in two. Thanks A Quote
ead Posted December 14, 2012 Posted December 14, 2012 I've heard nothing for a couple of weeks. I know the p/g I have asked him to reproduce has been received along with payment, but only because I sent it 'signed for'. Quote
benebass Posted December 15, 2012 Posted December 15, 2012 Popped up to Howard's for a flying visit today & he's fine. Some of this has been mentioned already, but a few factors have led to delays: - - His workshop has been out of action for a while, as some unexpected remedial building work needed to be done. - His scratchplate material supplier went bust. He's sourcing alternative supplies. - He's also still having problems with his internet access so isn't able to reply to PMs. I can totally understand the frustrations of not hearing anything, but I don't think there's anything to worry about & a quick call would help move things along. PM me or one of the other members who've posted for his number. Cheers, B. Quote
Stag Posted December 22, 2012 Posted December 22, 2012 Annnnnything further on this? At the moment i dont have any scratchplate on my bass as Howard has my current one to take measurements from... Quote
