Holy shit

Steve

Now that's what I call "Happy Birthday", very nicely done.

Steve

You've got some mighty fine stuff going on there Graham, very well done.

Steve

"I'm impressed" hell that's no wonder. Take a look at the photo of her fingers! they sure belong to a Craftswoman.

Steve

You fellas have got some good stuff going on here, always like the look of natural versus stuck on black vinyl.

Steve

Kudos Doug

Steve

Thanks for the heads up Martin but the brand name of them does my head in, just a bit to close to that term for a certain ladies shall we say "pre' condition

Steve

Wavy grain and pores remind me of Kwila/Merbau.

Steve

"El Superbio"

Steve

Reckon Mr Polidoro will be pleased with this one Allan.

Steve

Happy Birthday Martin

Steve

They're dropping like flies Martin that's for sure, a bad start to the year.

Steve

Very interesting sounds, thanks for the link.

Steve

Definitely out of the 'how not to' manual Martin.

Steve

[quote][/quote]I agree it is dis-appointing when you see an instrument, where the maker has been less, than his or her best effort

Yeah Steve its a bloody disgrace and sometimes the owners have no idea how bad the problem actually is.

Steve

Happy New Years as well everyone.

Steve

Read a great story awhile back Martin bout Ed Cassidy buying some drumsticks from Mannys' with his stepson a young Randy California in tow who was banging away on a strat when one of the 'Grand Masters' (some say the Grand Master)of the strat and a regular customer at the store, on the same day hear...

Bloody hell Martin whatever's happening it world wide.

Steve

Same to you and your family Martin and to our fellow members as well.

Steve

Mannys'

Steve

Mark is right Pete that's a damned fine looking bass.

Steve

Having a zero fret doesn't mean toss the nut, in fact it is extra work installing 1 more fret as the strings still need to be separated by way of a nut.

Steve

Bloody hell i'm slipping in my old age, yes Martin you're right, 'F.A = bugger all' as well i guess

Steve

Yes so true and even further, we are lucky to be just living Richard. An old school mate had a Hodaka Combat Wombat but longed for a Bantam Bushman, as for me gotten sillier with age and make do with my 1098s thumper
