old "Let's buy a wish" thread

[Bryan R. Tyler]

Okay, so who even has the bass right now? Xush, or does Hambone still have it in his posession?

 

[xush]

not me.

Okay, it looks like Hambone has disappeared again. His last TB posts were on April 11th where he said that he and JT were going to sign the Wish and send it to Xush. JT, what happened?

Man! If "Patients is a Virtue", then you guys are Saints.

Well this one seems to have turned into something other than anticipated.

Since it seems most unlikely that I will ever get my turn away, I want to go ahead and politely recuse myself from the tryout process. (should it actually move forward)

As for the $10, well, I have wasted far more on far less noble endeavors.

I would like to see it settled though, if for no other reason than to get this thread detached from the top of this forum.

i have had little contact with allan the past 2 weeks, but we are planning on meeting over at his house this weekend to get the liner notes finished. i'll pick up the bass then, and then kick start this thing.

OK, so it looks like I'll have to change my recent post.

THE WISHY HAS LANDED!

Good deal, Xush!

Make sure to post your thoughts on this instrument. Any pics would be cool too (the more absurd the better!)

The PRS

Traitor...LOL. At least it's a very decent guitar....grumble.

I think rather than review in words, I shall let pics and clips tell the story. Might be a day or two before I can let the bass 'speak' for itself, but I won't keep you hanging long.

How's about a slide show?

Whoa, how in the heck did that transaction happen so fast?

 

[xush]

I guess it was already on it's way to me, and I didn't know it. UPS brought it this evening.

there, is that enough to chew on for tonight?
I don't feel too good right now so I'm going to stop. I'll try to get it recorded soon.

Any requested shots?

 

[TxBass]

I believe you've frightened us enough for today...perhaps tomorrow I'll take some Pepto before listening to your soundclips...

 

[tufnuts]

Ohhhh Ick.

What a POS! It's not even art....

I mean....holy poo. Between the burn marks from the router to BADLY drilled holes. Hmm..maybe wishy just chews em out w/ a #2 phillips head screwdriver? A broken #2 screwdriver?

Nice joining of wood. Makes me want to go try building my own bass. I know I can do at least this well.

Holy Ick.

 

[Killdar]

good god.... that piece of dead tree must have had some CRAZY bad karma.....

oh man.... what did he use? a dulled pocket knife? in low light conditions? at 3 am? sure looks like it.

I haven't read that novel yet, but if it's as good as JT says it is, I definitely will put it on my to do list.

he really seems like a cool guy, but It just seems so odd that these logs with strings are done so.....unprofessionally....boggles the mind, it really does.

can't wait for those sound clips

 

[JPFerreira]

Wow!!!

Those pics hurt!
considering the number of basses Wish has already built...I wonder how he can still produce work THAT bad
