On the colour - it’s mental, it’s about 50 shades of green and blue. The walnut stain back and sides are a lovely contrast.

Very nice 👍

I think that shade of Pelham blue is called gorgeous.....? 

What's the verdict with the knobs, are you going to change them over for a pair of amber top hats? I reckon it'd be a nice contrast and really want to put them on a daphne blue bitsa I'll get around to finishing (starting) one day 😂

I’m going to change them. Just haven’t bought them yet 😉

Jeeze, hurry up!!!! 😂

Looking forward to seeing them on it, reckon they'll be a great addition.

First Video - bit ropey, I’ve possibly tweaked the bridge to be too low, so there’s a bit of rattle going on. I’m going to leave it now until the strings settle.

Second Vid - just seeing how viable it’ll be on some new ideas I’m sending the band. 
 

I’ve been doing these on my Spector so I have to remind myself the JC is a bit more agricultural 😂

Sorry mate. Kids have gone to Blackpool illuminations so I’ve got 5 minutes without Iris or Maggie climbing on my head...and Dan/Ella airdropping irrelevant teenage memes or Gifs.

”DID YOU SEE THAT ONE DAD...IT WAS WELL FUNNY” 🙄😂

Great colour Andy and some really nice tones there ☝️

I was watching a phenomenal clip of Hot Tuna earlier. Just to help convince myself that I need one, you understand. 

The wife commented on how much she liked the gold. I showed her the blue one and got a definite 'meh'.

I miss my gold one - no lie. I will have another.

It does have to be seen in person though, this is absolutely every bit as special as the first time I saw a gold one. Unbelievable basses.

Nice crotch shot on the first video Andy.

Sorry mate - phone was on the little dining table the girls have. Nothing unsightly; the new packet of Next boxers keep it all tucked in 😂

Mate, the bits played with a pick sound incredible. Have you got any effects going on there or is that just the bass growling away?

Apogee? Sounds good, perhaps I should get it!

And get one of these basses. 

Edit: How much?!

My last Casady also suffered with pickup screw wobble, and I know of a few others - I will sort that. 

Mine has that same wobble so I'd be keen to know how you fix it. I was just going to wrap some thread seal tape around it, but I'd imagine thats the way to bodge it!!

Well, that’s what I did in my gold one. This however was just that someone hadn’t bothered to screw it in. Got to love that idiosyncratic Qc

Gibson need to rename this colour as Sultan Blue 😁 Looks amazing and sounds awesome.

I'm in a pickle.

Blue... or gold?
