[Jaco]

Wow, what a horrible distorted post. Apologies chaps. Far too lazy to actually change it though!

[Wintermute]

Welcome back, Mike!

That picture looks familiar. :lol:

Nice collection though. Very nice.

[pukeboy66]

heeeello

excellent basses :)

[Jaco]

Hi WM. Indeed. Thought I'd make my return to MX. On a limited posting basis!


Cheers!

[AlmightyPancake]

When the F8ck did you get a benevante????


SECKS.

[Kibuddy]

Nice to see you again, Jaco.



I must say, that Benevante is beautiful. I'm jealous. :thumb:

[Left Shoe]

nice benavente, and hows the yamaha treating you? *has his trb6p strapped to him right now*

[bottlerocket]

Welcome back, Jaco! "Regards!" :p

Nice to see your collection growing...how's the band?

[Worrpigs]

nice collection. at first glance it looked like the second to the right was a fodera.

[AlmightyPancake]

I'd take a benevante over a fodera any day.

[sixner]

whoa... beauty man..... just... beautiful......

gah...
i love the yahama

I actually though Elrick upon first sight.



I'd still take a Benevante, though, as AP said.

[Jaco]

Hi guys, cheers for the comments. Whatsup Gav. Bands are fine cheers. One funk group (Cuban Heel) and one Blues band (Prime Suspects).

Mainly using the two old Fenders, the 79P (just got it!) and the 75J, as well as the Black Rose Custom Tele - a magnificent bass.

Left Shoe: Love the TRB6P - I'm more of a four string guy so sadly it's not played too much - but when it does, goddamn does it perform!


Hi everyone else!

hmmm well if you get bored, and perhaps want to trade for a warick proline corvette, or sell it, let me know. i need another trb6p to defret so i have matching fretless and fretted

[aks_29]

Those are all really nice.

But I was just wondering why you sold the Lakland (I'm assuming that's what you meant by "just out the door".

[Jaco]

Just time to move on. Cleared out my five strings. I got a G&L 2500 to replace the Lakland, which was more me. But no need for fives- and I wanted to get a Variax!

[baggagebassman]

Hot dog! That Benavente looks amazing.

[Spaceman Spiff]

Cool collection, though I'm not really a Yamaha fan. The rest is pretty nice, though.

I have played a Yamaha JP sig, didn't like it much.

[SLKBassist]

Hey welcome back! I still love your collection. Didn't you used to have a white jazz bass too?

[thelowsoundofbass]

i have always been jelious ot your basses and this is no exception. welcome back dude hope to see someone with your knowladge posting aroudn here more

lowsound

[Mr. Pickle]

that tele is sweet as hell

[eguitaranlead]

that is almost the exact benavente i have been gassing for. for quite a bit of time.

[bryce_the_cat]

I envy your collection. i dont really know you, but welcome back

:wave:

[HaVIC5]

The Benevente is easily the stand out bass in the crowd there. I just can't take my eyes off her.

Welcome back, man. It just hasn't been as cool without you and your collection around the forums.

[ScorpSath]

Mike,

That collection is absolutely stunning!

How, you been holding up we never talk on msn anymore :(

[Luchesi]

I'd take a benevante over a fodera any day.

Really? I'd prefer a Fodera myself.

But that Benevante is very beautiful, and I'd take it over an XXX flick any day. And that's saying a lot when it comes to me.

[blizzard]

I really like the tele bass, I've been gassing for a dual P pickup tele, similar to that one.

[BassPlayingPineapple]

Woah, nice collection you got there man. You must be loaded :amaze: or have a decent job.

[wonder_steve]

Welcome back :)

That tele looks sweet, what pickups do you have on it if I may ask?

[kilian]

geeeeeez :D

Now I remember who has the money again.. Welcome back :smoke:

[Jaco]

Hi guys, what a warm welcome back, thanks so much. Missed this place. Just been so busy, I moved, got a new job, rehearsing with the two groups i work with just takes a lot of time too.

I did have a white jazz fretless, a sort of modded 1970s fretless - that was sold to dans107 (he still about?) a while back.


Hope you're all well



Mike

[kilian]

Well, everything here around is just normal. A little more spam attacks from our dear chad and a new casual system. And competitions, if you haven't noticed them.. If you are a solo bassist or want to give it a try; join them.

And well.. new mods etc, but nothing really, really special. CK is very busy with bands and recording etc. Quatre left, but none of us are famous yet ;)

[Rollo47]

I'm working on it, Kilian :)

So, how was the Variax bass, Mike?
I've been very interested in them.

[PaulR]

Nice collection. :)

Welcome back. I always remember you from when I first started posting properly.

[lemoley]

welcome back man and congrats on having an awesome collection :thumb:

[Pastorius]

I saw you sold your Variax on BW Mike!

Impressive collection. Way better than my one bass and no amp :(

[peeted]

mmmmbenevante

[neal_672]

:wave: Welcome back Mike

Your collection never fails to make me feel inadequate...


:upset:



:thumb:

[Anorak]

welcome back:wave:
And is there a site for black rose customs.

[Linkinbassist]

hey dude, long time no see! hows things with you? and how did you afford that Benevante?!?

[rik]

Hey man, nice to see you drop back again. I also feel I need to thank you again for the Lakland you sold me, absolutely stunning bass, best i've ever played and i've started to use it at gigs regularly now. Well, cheers.

[Jamie]

:) Nice to see you're back!


So... how about that offer I made you on the benevante? :D

[I play that funky music]

That 75 Jazz is amazing.

[MuRd0K]

What... my tastes sure are different from you guys...

I'm not a fan of that Beneblahblah. But I like your collection, why do you have so many basses anyways?

[eguitaranlead]

what amps do you use

[zink182]

ewlcome back man.. I wanna steal the tele :D

[Yman]

that 75 jazz and single cut are to die for. congrats and welcome back!

[jazzfunkboy]

hey jaco. nice to see you around again.

[Jahmez]

nice collection. at first glance it looked like the second to the right was a fodera.

That's what I thought too. I'd love to have the Tele or the '75 Jazz, that collection is amazing.

[Radiobass81]

Hey. Don't know if you remember me, seeing as I'm hardly on MSN anymore :(. Last time we chatted, the JayDee was your newest bass.

I love the P.
