TheGreek Posted May 18, 2016 Author Posted May 18, 2016 Just sending out my thanks to EBUK for donating a EBUK SUB Ray to the raffle and to Dave Swift for arranging for said Bass and a Top Hat to be signed by Jules and the rest of his R&B Orchestra. Dave also arranged for a bag of goodies for the raffle.. Thanks everybody for supporting the event and the Youth Club. Quote

Andyjr1515 Posted May 19, 2016 Posted May 19, 2016 Hi, All I know I will be an out-of-region interloper, but I'll be at the bash too I have agreed with Mick to bring along his 'mystery bass rebuild' [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/283510-thegreeks-mystery-bass-rebuild/"]per the ongoing build thread here[/url] Mick knows it's a very long shot that it will be finished by then but I will be able to:[list] [*]meet him (and y'all) in person [*]pass it over if it's actually finished [*]let him drool and then cruelly whisk it away again if it isn't [/list] I'll also bring along my bubinga fretless and my avatar veneered Squier VM Jaguar. Everyone will be welcome to play them - but just don't ask me to...it would be a dreadful end of a perfectly decent bash Look forward to seeing you all there Andy Quote

Andyjr1515 Posted May 21, 2016 Posted May 21, 2016 [quote name='The-Ox' timestamp='1463825036' post='3054300'] Is Mick's mystery bass like an Alembic? [/quote] Yes and no - the shape was / is similar to an Alembic Stanley Clarke Signature and the headstock is just a lawsuit's whisker away. I think it is a home or custom built 'in the style of' from the era of the early SC models. Loads of pics on the build thread - we can probably all argue the toss at the bash Quote
