[/quote]Very true, maybe I need to shelve my new build pipe dream However, on a slightly different note, I found this on the Public-Peace website, a rather nice piece of laid-back funk http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=byV-mCaGNak Edited June 24, 2016 by ezbass Quote
jimbobothy Posted June 24, 2016 Posted June 24, 2016 (edited) ... man, I can't believe the prices of these basses new. For less than the price of a new MIM Fender you can get a hand built bass that, by all press on here is a really decent instrument. I am seriously impressed and find it hard to see how other manufacturers can justify their pricing!!! Edited July 5, 2016 by jimbobothy Quote
Killstarz Posted July 20, 2016 Posted July 20, 2016 Soooo, after being messed around by a seller on a facebook bass group and then subsequently not being able to find anything that took my fancy, I decided to take the plunge and order the Maruszcyzk that i'd wanted in the first place anyway. Looking forward to it turning up now. Exciting times! Quote

Right out of the Janet and John book of stage presentation and - for me - mitigates against connecting emotionally with the song. Hate, hate, hate it! Quote

bubinga5 Posted July 22, 2016 Posted July 22, 2016 Ha ha I've been that cat many times. I've even been knocking on next door because I could have sworn I heard a delivery truck come but delivered to the wrong house. Quote

thebrig Posted July 28, 2016 Posted July 28, 2016 Just received an email from Adrian, my Jake will be shipped today or tomorrow depending on when the balance which I have just transferred arrives in his bank account. I feel like a kid waiting for Christmas! Quote

NickD Posted July 28, 2016 Posted July 28, 2016 Has anyone seen the 'White Rabbit' finish in the flesh? I need a backup for my L5, and I'm seriously considering a stock one. They look lovely in the pics. Quote
