leschirons Posted December 10, 2008 Posted December 10, 2008 Sorry to be a bore but here it is. Sold three guitars, two basses, one snare drum, a pair of hi-hats and both our children for this. I reckon it was worth it. Quote

Kiwi Posted December 10, 2008 Posted December 10, 2008 I really like the sound of F-basses. Great find! Congrats! Quote
niceguyhomer Posted December 10, 2008 Posted December 10, 2008 I've played one of them - couldn't put it down. Jealous of Preston Quote

Well spotted. I had the F Bass floor fitted 12 months ago by George Furlanetto himself. It was £1,310,267.00 but did not, strangely enough, come with a case.

A couple of pick-ups from our induction hob, tear up some Hornby 00 gauge track for the frets and some net cutain wire......... sorted! Very nice Quote
lozbass Posted December 11, 2008 Posted December 11, 2008 Absolutely lovely - I'm smitten (and I've never had the pleasure of a F). Quote

I seem to remember they did a white one, a mint one AND a different fruity flavours one. About the same time as Jublees and Jamborie bags. I remeber having a Goblin Teasmaid as well. She was really nice. Latvian I think. Edited December 11, 2008 by leschirons Quote
GreeneKing Posted December 11, 2008 Posted December 11, 2008 (edited) Very nice. [quote]Nux bars[/quote] ? Now you've got me, and I AM old. Did some googling and it seems they were introduced by Rowntrees in the 50's and never really caught on. Edited December 11, 2008 by GreeneKing Quote
