That looks like a fabulous way to spend an afternoon ! I hope you had / are having a great time in NYC . I want one of those Jack Bruce Survivor basses , and a Starbass would do me very nicely , too . And a Custom Shop Dolphin and Streamer as well . And a Thumb Singlecut . If Andy Irvine can get an endorsement deal then why can't I ?

[MacDaddy]

looks lke you had a great time!

Well cool way to spend an afternoon thanks for sharing.

[Silvia Bluejay]

We had a fantastic time. Thank you all for reading my ramblings. It really was a lovely afternoon. Come to think of it, it's probably fortunate that my left-handedness allowed me to try only three basses, as opposed to all those awesome models available at the shop, or I would have [b]had [/b]to stay there a lot longer, and missed my flight home

Lovely blog Bluejay, thanks for taking the time to share!

[RAY AGAINST THE MACHINE]

That was cool . Love the green bass

[Skol303]

Great thread! I want to go to New York... with LOTS of spending money

[Ruiner]

Wasn't aware of the starbass, but the ones in that picture look really nice. Thanks for posting the blog, was a good read

[Silvia Bluejay]

Thanks for the appreciation, guys! I thought I should at least try to share the sheer awesomeness of that shop

[Chris2112]

That shot of the Thumbs together is great. Still not sure about this singlecuts though.

Silvia, that was wicked! Strangely, I have forsaken my Streamer and sold it, got an oldish Fender USA Jazz. I love the Jazz to bits at the moment, but it's strange not feeling like part of a family if you know what I mean. I have the home made bass with the Warwick neck though, I still have a bastard son to keep me in they place

Brilliant blog, really enjoyed it. My favourite is that German Flag one, love it!

[Bassman Sam]

Great blog Bluejay, l want a Dolphin. Not to play, just hang it on the wall and stare at it. [size=4] [/size]

[Silvia Bluejay]

Thank you both!
Sam, I want one to hang on the wall too - it's too big for little me to play anyway
Nige, how [i]could[/i] you get rid of your chrome Streamer for a bl**dy Fender??!??

I fancied a change Silvia. Fender has a big place in my heart, there is some seriously deep romance for me with Fender. I have toyed with them in the past, but it was time for me to get a really good USA Jazz, and boy, the one I bought of the lovely Pestie on here is rocking my world. I wonder how long it will last Seriously though, I feel so bonded to it right now I could cry tears of joy!

Nige,

Why don't you make that a chrome fender?

Bluejay... very very jealous! Warwick are still way up there for me, some of the nicest basses I've played. Which is why I based my ACG on a warwick spec!
