Grangur Posted December 13, 2013 Posted December 13, 2013 [quote name='Jonnyboy Rotten' timestamp='1386941228' post='2306647'] Can someone lend me a couple of grand? [/quote] I would, but you wouldn't like it. Its not roadworn at all. In fact there's no real scratches on the whole bass. And there's no characteristic dings or buckle rash. Also, the neck/FB is nice and smooth straight with no frets sticking up anywhere. It's so like a new bass, you really won't like it at all. (Much)

[/quote] It isn't. No way. Actually it's awful. I'm saving you from yourself really. In fact I've gone round Gary's a couple of times and I'm working on getting it road-worn. But it's a slow job. It's going to take a long time. Give me a few years ad we might just get there. [size=4] [/size]
discreet Posted December 15, 2013 Posted December 15, 2013 [quote name='gary mac' timestamp='1386928942' post='2306448'] This would make a lovely Christmas pressie to yourself... [/quote] It really would - but I don't deserve it. I've been a bad boy this year.

gary mac Posted December 18, 2013 Author Posted December 18, 2013 It's still available and still very lovely
Geek99 Posted December 18, 2013 Posted December 18, 2013 It's like the real version of what I asked the bass doc to build, Grangur has seen the bass doc version at my house; this is what I had in mind when specifying it. But more reliced of course

Geek99 Posted December 20, 2013 Posted December 20, 2013 Sorry I wasn't clear Mine is newish and yet looks more tired than yours, and I wish I'd asked the bass doc to relic mine. Yours is exactly what I had in mind looks wise when I was telling BD what I wanted.

Grangur Posted December 20, 2013 Posted December 20, 2013 [quote name='Geek99' timestamp='1387550801' post='2313279'] Sadly I don't have the money for it. [/quote] You mean, not until you get payment on the completion of the auction of Mrs 99?
Geek99 Posted December 20, 2013 Posted December 20, 2013 I wouldn't sell her. Period. Children, however .....
