Stub Mandrel Posted April 25, 2019 Share Posted April 25, 2019 Naturally a lot will have been said off camera - it's a totally artificial situation, these guys obviously only bring in their gear for the program - who has a snap-on cabinet full of tools out under a lean-too roof? I hope the refret was needed; I showed my precious 40-year old acoustic to a luthier and asked about a refret and he said it just needs a fret dress. I bet the guy was told, these are just to complete the look, you can take them off to play it and keep them safe. I wonder how he will get on with the instrument.

She fell for the lizard, but she wanted kids and i didnt, so that was ok by me but i knew he was after getting his mitts on her inheritance. Alimony for his previous mrs and 3 kids was killig him. Not long after my ex and him got married, he was off again, cheating with every woman he could. There were loads of them. She was cluless for years, but she got the 2 kids she always wanted. He dumped her eventually - see the pattern?,... but he managed to swipe half her inheritance Suddenly my wife is interested in Basschat, for the first time!!

I had exactly the same problem - in fact watched the most recent and then realised it was the wrong one - it was the third one back today - will be the fourth back tomorrow as there's been another installment today!! I think it was episode 15 - you can tell because the first people in are the Hot Chocolate bassist's wife and son. Very interesting case it arrives in as well - looks like a 70s bespoke or home made design.

kevin_lindsay Posted April 26, 2019 Share Posted April 26, 2019 It's episode 18 of series 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elfrasho Posted April 26, 2019 Share Posted April 26, 2019 I used to like this programme when it was more about the repair rather than the emotions surrounding the piece! Always feels contrived to me! This bass one dies sound interesting though! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tedrick Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 main thing for me was the missing fender logo. screams fake to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean-Luc Pickguard Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 I think they showed a longer edit of the bass bits on the episode of repair shop shown today & currently on iplayer the original decal would have been applied over the laquer so it wouldn't have taken much for it to have been scratched off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
