Beedster Posted September 25, 2015 Posted September 25, 2015 Crikey, you've probably got more of them than the man himself! Absolutely lovely collection Chris, such great basses. Quote
cana.dan Posted September 25, 2015 Posted September 25, 2015 Always wanted to get one of these when I first started out playing. Then Lane Poor pickups disappeared and I got a fancy for Maple boards instead. They still look amazing though. Quote
Chiliwailer Posted September 25, 2015 Posted September 25, 2015 Good things come in flea's.... I mean three's Quote
Musashimonkey Posted September 25, 2015 Posted September 25, 2015 Very nice. I still miss my silver sparkle flea modulus. Do you find much difference in tone between them? I can imagine that the excellent build quality and tolerances may make them also identical audio wise? Quote
MarshallBTB Posted September 25, 2015 Posted September 25, 2015 I don't usually get gear envy but..... Nice ! Quote

[/quote] I've got different strings on them all so they all have quite a different feel and sound at the moment, they really are great basses and I'm addicted! Quote

Subbeh Posted September 25, 2015 Posted September 25, 2015 Always wanted one, they look and sound fantastic. For my money one of the best looking basses ever made, just gorgeous! Quote
chrisanthony1211 Posted September 26, 2015 Author Posted September 26, 2015 Would it be a greedy to have two black one? A funk unlimited just come up for sale on basschat ......... Quote
Musashimonkey Posted September 26, 2015 Posted September 26, 2015 (edited) Well, some would say it would be greedy to have more than one full stop! But that hasn't stopped you! (For which I don't blame you at all, as they are exceptional) Would it be too rude to consider a re-spray...? Edited September 26, 2015 by Musashimonkey Quote
TrevorR Posted September 26, 2015 Posted September 26, 2015 Three lovely looking basses. Mind you, I'd be happy to take one off your hands if you ever decided to give it away, give it away, give it away, give it away now... Groan, I can only apologise underservendly for that attempt at humour... Quote
Kiwi Posted September 26, 2015 Posted September 26, 2015 Does this mean you have an infestation of basses? Quote

ordep Posted September 27, 2015 Posted September 27, 2015 there's a green one on evilbay atm. :-) Quote

chrisanthony1211 Posted September 27, 2015 Author Posted September 27, 2015 I think there will be another to complete the collection, but it will have to be something special, either the lane poor pick up just to see what all the fuss is about, or some particularly sparkly paint job that I don't already have!

Dazed Posted September 27, 2015 Posted September 27, 2015 Excellent idea!! I should follow suit. Find a favourite bass and fit different strings pickups to the each. Now, should only take the next 30 years to find that "one" Great clutch of Fleas! Quote
