Maybe Doodle 2 is a closely guarded secret, like Windows 7...[/quote] Don't say that! (cos we know Windows x.x is going to be sh*te!)

So he might not get round to a speedy response, but he's been a busy boy! Not seen anything of the Doodle though when I've been down there recently [/quote] What have you seen down there? tell of the wonders Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dood Posted July 24, 2008 Author Share Posted July 24, 2008 Well, it has been a bit quiet on the trail recently, following Jon's workshop move, that must be a bit of a nightmare. He was gonna send me pics a cuppla weeks ago, but I am in no doubt he is busy!!! Must give him a tinkle! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 Same here Dood, should have had pictures weeks ago, sent a few emails with no reply, presume he's very busy but still a shame! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RichBowman Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 I'm planning on going up there next week (after Jon and I have had a few previous abortive attempts!) If you want me to get some pics for you, drop me a line (and probably best let Jon know as well so the basses are there) and I'll see what I can do. Hopefully I can help ease the pain a bit!

Cheers, Rich[/quote] Hey ya Rich! Great to hear from you! s'been a while! You keeping well mate? Yeah, ok.. that would be really great, but clear it with Jon first, as I know he has said that sometimes he doesnt like people taking pics of other customer's basses. No malice or anything meant, but I would respect his wishes. If I remember I'll drop him a line to say that I am ok with you taking pictures, if he hasnt done some already. Chat soon matey.

RichBowman Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 Hey mate, I'm good thanks - how about you? How's the lovely Norwich? Not been there for ages! I thought it would be best if those concerned dropped Jon a line and let him know - And he's certainly a better photographer than I am! Plus if I were him, I'd be wary of letting anyone take pics willy nilly as it were - Think he enjoys the reaction he gets when he sends out the progress photos (I was always mailing back a stream of awestruck incomprehensible superlatives and expressions of joy when he sent me some). ^_^ Anyway - the offer's there - I'm popping up to drop mine off for a fingerboard re-shoot. Take care and chat soon, Rich Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dread Bass Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 oh dear im looking forward to seeing this. See if it can change my view on headless basses. Ive neverseen one i really liked but if it is anything like doodle its bound to be a winner. Checked out that recording of the drummer from within the void. its sounding a bit good like. He is not bad on the old drums that young man. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lang!! have you mastered my 4/4 beat yet????" ;o) I'm really looking forward to see Doodle 2! Certainly it is gonna be worth waiting for!

Dood Posted September 27, 2008 Author Share Posted September 27, 2008 Hi all! News from Jon! - He has been very busy with sorting out his new workshop but it sounds like the fretboard is nearly ready to go on my very special new bass. He is cooking up something special for me, which he is keeping under wraps as a bit of a surprise! - So, at the moment I don't have any pictures to show off. - Next job is fretting the neck.. needless to say I can't wait to see my new addition to the family!

Do you ever play fretless Dood?[/quote] I used to a lot, but I found that in more recent bands I haven't had a reason to do so. So I sold my Fretless.. which interestingly popped up here on BassChat recently, going to a new home. An absolutely gorgeous Status Energy 6 string. On arrival of my new Shuker, I'll just have that and my 7 string. I have a copy of Jap Fender P's at home.. but they don't get gigged. I am very much looking forward to seeing my new Shuker.. Can't wait to get my hands on it! I think I may do some new vids too. Dood. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely yes! - Infact, whilst I am waiting for my new Shuker, it's the only bass I use! - I play in a li'l covers band as well as Within The Void and really enjoy playing the 7 string. I love it love it love it! We do a version of Queen's 'Innuendo' and Doodle takes up all of the Spanish guitar 'wandering minstrel' rhythm parts. Sounds wicked with a bit of reverb and delay chucked in for atmosphere. Still the best bass I have ever played ;o) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get all the usual responses about my 7 string lol.. The average 'punter' doesn't know or can't tell any different so that doesn't bother me. I guess the ignorant/short sighted/close minded musicians who are quick to belittle are the ones that tire me! - Generally though, doodle is a real eye opener and I really enjoy talking about Jon's basses! Pictures of my 7 string?

I have asked for some though, as this build diary has been a little bit luke warm in comparison to the Doodle monster thread! Jon is keeping the bass under wraps though, as, mentioned in previous posts, he has a little surprise for me! Whcih I think will be very cool! (..and obviously sending pictures would kinda negate the surprise!!!) Dan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
