Can't say the oft mentioned softness of basswood is something I've noticed. All wood dents when it's hit,You should see the knick of my swamp ash T-20 Granted the basswood basses here are newer but they seem to be holding up well. Will they end up like the T-20 ? Doubt I'll still be here in 30 years to see

The package was checked & resealed, so mustn't be any damage, but it means that it definitely wont now be with me until Monday. 7 days from order to delivery to Northern Ireland, not very impressive.

Due to musical differences I've decided I can't work with myself any more.

I wonder if they were just poking around to see how lovely it was? News of Harley Bentons is spreading like wild fire. You could always ask them for a report or some pictures. The wait is agony. I know and I'm only waiting for 12 pickguard screws, a precision bass saddle and a Joyo tuner to come from China. WHERE THE HELL ARE THEY?

These things happen occasionally. Hope everything is ok when it arrives. Last year we had the postal strike in Germany and then after dispatch from Thomann everything just sat somewhere in Cologne for days on end before finally reaching the UK. The wait was torture!!
