    Looks great. So many questions- Where did get one made? How much $$? How long were you without it?

    NBD Glarry. Am I being too picky?

    The Talk bass reply to my thread notice e mail was the next email I saw today after the e mail from Paypal for my refund. :) I do like tinkering, if it was a painted body instead of stained, I could see plugging screw holes and moving the bridge. I didn't haggle with them, I really just...

    Advice needed on a good bass guitar that won't break the bank.

    Yeah, you can't say you aren't bonding with it but, if something isn't right and you weren't told about it.

    Yes. Look on GC. In my opinion, most of their stuff is overpriced but, here and there, you find some gems for dirt cheap. Be patient, took me years to find a Czech Republic Dean Evo they listed as an Evo XM but I found it. $135 shipped. Their shipping is dirt cheap too. Call the store...

    NGBD - New Glarry Bass Day!

    Don't have mine yet. Not finished at all would be a huge plus to me, just because so many imports are like they were dipped in plastic. ... and, I have a bottle of Tru Oil already.

    NGBD - New Glarry Bass Day!

    Waiting on my Glarry, tracking says Monday. Worried maybe it's not a real Glarry, maybe counterfeit. :) Every Glarry thread I've looked at, and this one mentioning very similar basses all come from New Jersey. Mine is coming from Chino California. From Chino, CA US To...

    NBD: Dean Paramount

    Hi. I just joined here. I've ended up on Talk Bass many times when searching something but, never joined. Thought it would be easier to follow you and anybody else looking at pickguards for a Paramount, "got my Paramount two weeks ago". What I'm hoping for is somebody else will be the first...
