Fisheth Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 [quote name='andyonbass' timestamp='1479882651' post='3179964'] Thanks! I am on the web site right now!! High probability of an expenditure in the very near future!! [/quote] I'm in the same boat, especially as I need an amp to back up my CTM 100!

mcnach Posted November 24, 2016 Share Posted November 24, 2016 [quote name='mcnach' timestamp='1479780153' post='3179256'] I just emailed Adrian [/quote] ... and I've finally decided on a couple of issues I was unsure about. Now just checking the colour is the one I'm after exciting! Essentially, I was unsure between a solid metallic colour, or the wood stain with satin finish instead. Also, I was going to have it pickguard-less, but ordering also a pickguard in case... and now I'm just having it with a pickguard, I think it'll look better.

Fisheth Posted November 24, 2016 Share Posted November 24, 2016 You guys are not helping me with my wait for mine! I'm guessing it's going to come on a sleigh. However, I may have just sold a bass this week, so I can start looking at some options... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Mines currently at about 13 weeks, but I'm aware that this is unusual for Adrian. Wood In Black got his at 7 but was quoted 12. So that can happen.

[/quote] You're not wrong there Michael have used it exclusively for gigging since i got it from you , the new one is a take on a Lakland Duck Dunn i had just a P bass in black but with slightly slimmer neck plus blocked and bound rosewood board which i have to say is stunning. I will really find it difficult to justify buying basses from anywhere else such is the quality for the price Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a shame that the drop in the £ due to B... bad financial weather means that while I paid £665 for my first Jake, today it would cost £855. The second cost £875 but now it'd be £1125... Of course, everything else has gone up in price too... but last year or so it was even more of a great deal. I remember getting the first Jake and I could not believe that £665 gave me such a well made bass (with the neck exactly to my specs!)... The new one is going to be around £1000, and I can't wait.

Woodinblack Posted November 24, 2016 Share Posted November 24, 2016 Mine was more because of that thing too, but I can't complain, I love this bass, there is nothing about it I don't like, it is such a joy to play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
