Now it's all a bit meh. By observation, CiCi (well, if You Tube videos are anything to go by), appears to have decentish chops, but there's really very little evidence of this in any of the current bass-centric Anderton output. You must be watching a different Cici as her playing is amazing, really wide range of styles, not many people doing these sorts of videos do any proper metal stuff like her and she does some nice melodic stuff too. All of this and she is comically small (stature and hands) compared to some of the basses she plays (eg with a Rick she looks so small!!) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neepheid Posted August 27 Author Share Posted August 27 FFS, so close - stock ETA got bumped to 3rd Sept at Andertons. Bit mean for it to happen 3 days before the previous ETA. What *are* they poncing around at? Maybe get it by... Halloween? Christmas? 2025? Whatever, I think I'm just gonna forget I ordered it then get a nice surprise whenever it does land.

la bam Posted August 27 Share Posted August 27 Unfortunately I've done this before with them, it just endlessly moves. Much clearer dates at thomann for things I found unfortunately. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillyBass Posted August 27 Share Posted August 27 (edited) They definitely will arrive, but maybe not by the 3rd. Edited August 27 by BillyBass Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got excited when they emailed twice last week to say still the 30th, but alas it isn't to be! Hopefully with this being an update it may be accurate 🤞🤞🤞 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they don't get them for the 3rd then they need to have a think about what they're doing.. . it's not really fair to take pre orders and keep rocking the date back. I hope they do get them though and everyone gets theirs. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucky they didn’t task a guitard with it. It would mean first teaching one of them to read words but that’s five years well spent in my view 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neepheid Posted September 1 Author Share Posted September 1 So, what are the odds the ETA will get bumped again tomorrow? At least the gap between the various dates we've been fed is shrinking... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

la bam Posted September 2 Share Posted September 2 Thomann - much much bigger than Andertons and the original sire stockist still saying 2-3 weeks. I hope Andertons do get them tomorrow, but I'd be amazed if they get them weeks before thomann. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cato Posted September 2 Share Posted September 2 I've just been looking at this at Bax. https://www.bax-shop.co.uk/electric-bass-guitars/sire-marcus-miller-z3-4-string-rosegold-electric-bass-guitar Very tempted but I'm slightly concerned as to why it's £65 cheaper than the other brand new Z3s they're offering. They're saying 12 days for delivery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For once in my life I'm going to stay strong. I wasn't even thinking about getting a new bass when I woke up this morning.

BillyBass Posted September 2 Share Posted September 2 @neepheid its after close of business and the Andertons website is still saying 3rd September. Fingers crossed. It would be cruel if they postponed tomorrow; a bit like telling your infant son on Christmas morning that due to industrial action in Lapland, the elves are working to rule and Father Christmas is unlikely to make it around until the 27th Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
