I actually sent in the bass so it would be a no risk, perfect fit! So I am sure he could replicate the case easily now. If there is interest maybe we can work something out. There is a website but it’s like a time machine to the 90s…. and it’s all in Japanese. But there are some pics, etc...

While everyone awaits a status update for #18 I thought I would take the opportunity to show off my new replacement AMUB-1 case. I had posted last year that the OHSC was rendered unusable after some sort of flood (way before I got it). I was struggling to find something reliable to carry the...

Looks like it sold!

A little bit of @Bruce Johnson history popped up for sale here in Japan…. [Invalid or Expired Link Removed]

It didn’t last long…

Did you guys happen to see this one on Reverb today? No. 0534C Looked VERY clean…. anyone know the history of this one? @Bruce Johnson?

Thanks for the intel Bruce. I am in discussion with the guy at Calton right now…. he said he really *wants* to do it. So we are discussing dimensions, etc. to see what it would take; I measured a length of 46 5/8” (47” to the pins) x and 14.5” width - sound about right? I just need to find...

That’s just not repairable… it’s completely rotted out. Wood, tolex, whatever that stuff is on the ends, the fuzzy stuff…. there is no way. I will keep it since it’s the OHSC but I need a practical solution. No budget!

I have been having trouble reaching them to discuss it…. Bruce, didn’t you have a thing going with A&S for flight cases at one point? I know there have been better case options in the past, but things seem pretty limited these days. I need *something* asap as this OHSC has a case of incurable...

Thanks for all the warm regards and additional intel re: #433…. it’s a cool, uber exclusive community that I have longed to join! I am super psyched about looking after the AMUB-1 properly. So quick follow up question to the Fam re: cases - I don’t have any budget ceiling per se, especially...

Story time, Ampeg scroll bass edition! So it’s late one Saturday night, I am feeling a tad toasty perhaps, but I reckon I will kill a few minutes with some “me time”…. you know, working that mental list of WTB bass unicorns we are all seeking. Low and behold…. suddenly I am staring at a super...
