This is as hard-hitting as Lucinda’s songs, and to be frank it’s a wee bit too honest. But that makes it compelling reading, so if you like her music it’s a solid investment. If you don’t know who she is, consult YouTube immediately… Hardback, very good condition. RRP £20, yours for £13 posted. Now just £11.

From what I've been reading recently, there have been a few other members who have added them into their orders from thomann so I'm sure we'll find out before long. Who knows, they could become the Sue Ryder of bass strings 😄

@Delberthot interested in view of hb flats

I've gone the opposite way again. I used Chromes for years on everything then decided around 2017 that I no longer liked the sound so started using D'addario nickels as they are very smooth. I switched to Hybrid Slinkies in 2022 and have been using them ever since. I have still been having issues with my basses balancing the way that I want them to since I lost weight so decided to resurrect my Harley Benton JB75. I haven't weighed it but it's pretty heavy being one of the natural ones. I've got a set of EMGs, BTS system and Hipshot Ultralites fitted - all of which I already had. Plus I had routed the body for the battery when I was using it previously. I had already parked my Chromes on this bass when I stopped using them so decided to leave them on and I must say that I am loving the sound through my preamp pedal and IEMs so I'm going to use it this weekend, I also have a sets of EB and Harley Benton flats so may try these out if I like it this weekend

Hi Steve,ah you'd already seen it,no worries. I have no personal experience with these but remember hearing that the price difference between them was entirely justified. Hopefully someone who knows more can chime in. It's interesting how Andertons rate the condition of their used basses. I'm in London so able to pop in quite easily and I tried the AFR5 in person which was rated a 3/5 and I couldn't really see a mark anywhere on it. My only hesitation is whether or not it's "my" sound. Good luck with the search. At least they're popping up somewhat.

MichaelDean started following PMT - physical shops going downhill?

PMT did have their own "Antiquity" brand. I played one and it seemed like a really decent instrument, especially for the money. They just never got much of an internet buzz around them.
