Hi Lefty, I did look at the Rodes but dropped them to 4th place behind the SEs, MXLs and Tbones based solely on reading the specs which didn’t seem quite as good for the M5s. Problem is, of course, that specs on paper don’t really tell you what your ears are going to experience which is why I’d like folks’ hands-on opinions. From the sound of things, the M5s might be worth another look - they’re certainly in the right price range. Off down the YT rabbit hole I go then 😁 Thanks!

***PRICE DROP NOW £1300*** 2010 US Stingray, 2EQ, CAR with rosewood board. One of the limited edition 133 basses, full fat ‘ray but with a soft gig bag case instead of a hard shell job. This is in excellent condition with one very minor ding on the top edge, and the pickguard is quite marked but obviously easily replaceable. Comes with a Hipshot D-tuner (long key though instead of short… doh), if you want the original tuner key I’ll chuck it in. I’ve also replaced the pickup with a Nordstrand MM4.2, which sounds flippin’ great. She’s quite heavy (10lb) but with a decent wide strap it feels ok. ***EDIT*** now comes with the option of a Warwick Rockbass semi-rigid case - photos added. Loathe to post this but can at buyer’s (insured) expense, or can meet in person at either Portsmouth, Southsea, Southampton or Lymington (I’m on the I.O.W.)

I've just been sent the set list for a gig on 27/9 for a band I dep for. Three songs in there I've never played before and they don't rehearse. I wasn't informed of this when I said yes, but the singer is also a dep and everything will be tuned down half a step for him. There's a song in there that should be played on a 5. That's not going to happen if everything is being tuned down. They can put up with me playing the low stuff higher on that one. Plus....I've also got the full house in cover band bingo....Play That Funky Music, Summer of '69, Sex on Fire, Chelsea Dagger AND Mr.Brightside!

A tell for the Shaftys (and other Chushin Gakki ones, I think) is the slightly translucent pickguards.

I've only seen neck-thru Shaftys. Yep - the bolt-on Japanese ones didn't have the skunk stripe through the body. I don't think Eko (Italy) did 4001 copies?

RAY AGAINST THE MACHINE replied to uk_lefty's topic in Effects For Sale
Thanks for getting back to me . I was in 2 minds whether I need this or not . I have ltd space . I also have various effects ( single , and zoom b3/ old boss me8b etc) I have a Roland sampler ( which really need to get my head around) , which although it takes batteries and mains, does plug directly into my Mac.. The idea I had was to say goodbye to the me8-b and use this as the modern replacement. Apologies for the long winded response, but GLWTS ! -

Hi mate. Long time no see. A little bit off the point, but have you considered Rode? I have a matched pair of M5s, and to my ears they sound pretty damn good for the price. A bit more than the Tbones, but still well within your budget. Just a thought...

When I was in a duo with an acoustic guitarist I used an Aguilar TH500 and a Bergantino AE112. The tone was incredible. I'm still using the TH500 but the Bergs went awhile ago. For small and quiet gigs I now use a Barefaced Super Compact. Again, beautiful tone.

What are your irrational prejudices? I have some bonkers ones...

I have a Jackson Charvel complete with pointy headstock that I played in a function band for years, until I decided it didn't really look right. I ended up buying a Mahogany Ibanez. I then played the Ibanez in a thrash metal band for a few gigs, completely oblivious that maybe the Charvel would have looked a lot better. -
Sadly not mine - just in my custody while waiting for it's new owner to pick it up, but a delightful example of a 2004 Textured Teal/Checkerplate 2EQ MusicMan SUB.
