Hi!

Just found the board! Special hallos to Mik Walker and Paul Clifton! I'm a pro player from England who has severe GAS (38 basses!). My Alembic Series I model is I believe, a bass that once belonged to the late great John Entwistle. This bass has no serial number but is pictured in the Who Anthology book.

Cheers!

That's pretty cool, Nick! Welcome aboard! It'll be interesting to figure out the serial no. and it's history!

Hi Nick and welcome to the club from another Englishman (ex-pat in edinburgh now though). I'm surprised Paul TBO didn't ask for pictures so I will. Make sure you get some posted right away.
When I lived in Hertfordshire in the 80s I used to spend quite a few weekends eating and drinking in Peterborough. I expect it's changed alot since then.

Thanks for the warm welcome! I've started building a basic website so will try to get some pics up there! I've actually got 42 basses (did a census!) and 7 guitars! My current fave happens to be a Status Series 2000 - the Alembic is retired (sadly) - I'd hate it if she got damaged etc

Cheers

Hi Nick - don't I know you from the Jaydee and Statii forums (and various Level 42 digests etc)?

Anyway, glad you finally found this place! Welcome!

Nick Smith, as I live and breathe! Blimey - long time no see. Thanks for the greetings and glad you managed to find this place - as you can see things have moved on a little since the cosy days on Yahoo. Hope all is well with you! Best wishes, Mik
