[Daktari]

If I haven't said it before, I actually got to see Mr King play this past summer when I was back in the states.

He is a bass player's bass player, no doubt about it, and a good guy all around.

Enjoy!

 

[BartmanPDX]

That's good news, rkingly! Awesome that she's supportive.

I've played that particular fish, I believe. I think it's the same one that 4mal used to own. Great bass -- the one that got me thinking about getting my first own fish.

 

[matrok]

well, anyone get the XL?

 

[BartmanPDX]

wasn't me.

Somehow I got logged out of ebay right before it went. I couldn't get back on in time, and my bid would have been a lot higher than it went for.

I can't describe how bummed I am. I really, really wanted that one.

 

[whoapower]

Not I either.

 

[rkingly]

Don't look at me, I'm Fish Broke.

 

[Daktari]

I have to say, I thought it would have gone for more than $860.

 

[matrok]

Bart, that is a real bummer. I had that happen once, now I stay on top of it. double check the log in, open two windows, set up the bid in one, watch the time in the other

 

[mdlewis]

Bart, that has happened to me as well, several times. Drives me crazy.

But it didn't happen this time. I confess.

 

[matrok]

congrats, nice score.

The same thing happnened to me on saturday bidding on sheet of titanium. It's really aggrivating. When I finally got back on, I was out bid by much less than I was willing to go. These days, I pretty much have to buy what I can find rather than just ordering what I need. GOD!! Now I'm PISSED OFF all over again

I thought the Rev would have topped 1K. The market and the economy is showing.

Well done!!

Well done. If you ever want to sell it, I'm REALLY interested.

My max bid was well over $1k, had it gone through.

Live and learn . . .

Congrats, Great Price on that Beauty!

Joe's Music Quarters on the east side of Detroit is an authorized repair facility. I believe they bought up the remaining stock of laminate from Joe.

Thanks for the info, called Joe & will be sending him the wounded fish very soon. Great guy & fantastic hook-up. He's going to replace w/ aluminum like I had hoped.
She'll be the "Bionic Fish"

Fellow Fisherman take note for any future repair needs
that you may need. Joe's Music / Eastpointe, Mi.

They have a history with Reverend & the materials & jigs to do the job right.

 

[rkingly]

It can be done. A tech buddy of mine just finished installing an entire back on a smashed-up navy blue Slingshot.

He got a hunk of leftover laminate from Reverend a couple months ago. Same exact lam material, exact color match.

I looked it over, the repair is perfect in every way. Dunno what he charged to do it (I could ask). The Slingshot is now fixed and keeps its originality.

He's in the Chicago area, PM me if you want his contact info. Might be worth shipping your bass to him for a proper repair.

Called the guy you told me about & he too was willing to do the repair for a fair price imho, the only difference being is that I'd
have to provide him w/ the material. I plan to call him again & let him know that I've got the hook-up. Super friendly guy, & thanks again for your help.
