Billowing smoke,replaced ports,provenance and NBD

What's Hot
Oh NO !!!!!!!!


Oh YES !!!!!!


Smells much sweeter now, I was handed these 2 rolls when I picked up this amp,guy said they were buzzing.....


Bonded them back in so hopefuly might make it a bit tighter sounding.....


When I collected it the friendly seller said "it used to belong to the late great Alvin Lee's brother,who lives in Yorkshire,he used it to test mods done to such n such's amps and also for testing Lemmy's bass after he had done mods to that too,he could tell a tale but he also had the pics to back it up".
No wonder the ports had come loose eh!!.
Anyways you can expect to see this £10 purchase increase in resale value to around £10,000 with that information.......

Lets see if I can rattle ports loose with this BAED boy......

    Not sure whether to give a lol for the smoke or a wow for the back story!

    Pull the frets, install an East-UK pre-amp and yo' Harley-Benton would be as good as a boutique bass.

    Who the hell makes bass guitars of sandalwood? ;)
    Be seeing you.
