Annoying Twit Posted February 13, 2016 Author Posted February 13, 2016 Updating on a Saturday happens quite often. I think it happens on Sundays too. (Checks). Yes, there were dekos updated on Sunday the 26th of April, 2015. Including a left handed Jazz Bass. Probably many other Sundays as well. Quote

CustardFilled Posted February 16, 2016 Posted February 16, 2016 How did those all go so quickly...? :| Quote

They go fast. I'm hoping that the lesser interest in this thread now is indicative of lesser interest in the world in general. So that eventually we'll get back to the point where dekos will last hours or even days before selling out. Quote
allighatt0r Posted February 16, 2016 Posted February 16, 2016 Could be that they only have single units of each? Quote
Andytre Posted February 16, 2016 Posted February 16, 2016 i keep checking the deko site but never seem to get there in time to actually buy one! its probably for the best as i think iv got enough deko projects running without adding more! Quote

Annoying Twit Posted February 17, 2016 Author Posted February 17, 2016 6 string bass and neck through stripey 'jazz' came and went while I wasn't looking this morning. Quote

Annoying Twit Posted February 25, 2016 Author Posted February 25, 2016 Dekos right now. Including basses. Quote
Andytre Posted February 25, 2016 Posted February 25, 2016 And there gone! Finally got around to finishing a PJ deko project last night, £28 deko + a £39 Chinese eBay neck + a £5 Chinese active preamp and it's a beast of a bass! The neck is especially nice really good glossy finish and I really like the dark tint, the preamp is also surprisingly good for the price clean sounding and keeping the P-bass tone but with a bit more control with boost/cut bass and treble. Apologies about the awful picture I only have my phone and crappy lighting in my music room Quote

I had a look through the sellers 700 odd items including 126 that mentioned bass and couldn't find the item you bought. I found a maple neck: is that the one you bought? Quote
