Andytre Posted June 10, 2015 Posted June 10, 2015 Saw them this morning, they were sold before id even finished my cereal! Quote
Jonnyboy Rotten Posted June 10, 2015 Posted June 10, 2015 They are still showing as available immediately. Quote

Annoying Twit Posted June 10, 2015 Author Posted June 10, 2015 The 'deko' page shows available immediately, but clicking through to the instruments shows that they are sold out. Unfortunately I wasn't online at the time they went up, it's good to see that others are watching and posting too. Quote

Myke Posted June 10, 2015 Posted June 10, 2015 I have it! I was very nervous when I was opening it because I didn't know what was wrong with it. Almost nothing, it turns out. In fact so much so I don't know what is wrong with it. The only thing it might be is that it doesn't have a finish on the neck but I don't know if it is just super light coloured wood! So very chuffed with it though and it comes with D'addario XLs which is brilliant! Quote
Andytre Posted June 10, 2015 Posted June 10, 2015 I have a full price HB PJ-5 which feels like it has no finish on the neck so that might be normal Quote
Annoying Twit Posted June 10, 2015 Author Posted June 10, 2015 Happy NDBD (New Deko Bass Day) My PJ5-HTR has a very subtly finished neck. Quote
landwomble Posted June 10, 2015 Posted June 10, 2015 Same finish on the shorty. I really like it. Quote

Left Foot Posted June 11, 2015 Posted June 11, 2015 Grandad guitars. I still have a thomann link saved on my phone but since thetrs been no interesting updates when I check iv almost stopped looking. Quote
Annoying Twit Posted June 11, 2015 Author Posted June 11, 2015 You never know when the next batch of actually interesting dekos will turn up. Just when I think that it's gotten boring, suddenly there will be a big batch of really interesting basses. Quote
Andytre Posted June 11, 2015 Posted June 11, 2015 Mine arrived at 7.30 this morning, had just enough time to check it over and plug it into my mixer for a quick test, there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with it except the finish isn't amazing on the rosewood fretboard near the body, but the electronics and build quality are fine and it sound, well it sounds like a jazz bass!

Annoying Twit Posted June 11, 2015 Author Posted June 11, 2015 Andytre - Happy New Deko Bass Day. Could you at some time post a photo of the finish of the fretboard near the body? Quote
Andytre Posted June 11, 2015 Posted June 11, 2015 will do! it just kinda looks a bit like it hasnt been finished proporly, i think some wire wool and lemon oil might clean it nicely Quote
bartelby Posted June 11, 2015 Posted June 11, 2015 Mine arrived just after I'd left the house. But I went back to get it. Photos later, but I'm astounded it cost £37 including shipping! It shall be dismantled after being photographed... Quote
Annoying Twit Posted June 11, 2015 Author Posted June 11, 2015 Happy NDBD. Is it the standard LH Jazz, or one of the variations? Quote
bartelby Posted June 11, 2015 Posted June 11, 2015 (edited) Here's a quick couple of photos before it gets demolished... It's a really nice looking instrument, I may have to keep an eye out for a right handed version.... [attachment=194073:P1100395.jpg] [attachment=194074:P1100396.jpg] The only thing I could spot that might mean it's only Deko quality is the neck pocket is a bit off, but that might be because the neck has shifted. [attachment=194075:P1100400.jpeg] And a there's a 3/4 mark on the back of the upper horn... Considering the stings are £22, the pickups are £24 a set, the bridge is about £25. the whole thing for £27 is a bloody bargain!! Edited June 11, 2015 by bartelby Quote
