Yep def sounds like you're spot on with the band. Is it a Sandberg TM4 and did you change both pick ups ? Did you keep original pre-amp ? Wouldn't mind some details as i find the Sandberg pups a bit weak too. Dave

Oo! Shiny!

Asked to comment on a famous photograph of himself and Geldof together prior to Live Aid, Ant tells Uncut magazine, “That was when I was asked by Sir Bob to promote this concert. They had no idea they could sell it out. Then in Bob’s book he said, ‘Adam was over the hill so I let him have one number.’ One thing I’d like to do (in the photo) is kick him up the a**e. “Doing that show was the biggest f**king mistake in the world. Knighthoods were made, Bono got it made, and it was a waste of f**king time. It was the end of rock ‘n’ roll, now hippies run the world, like f**king (British festival) Glastonbury… I hate hippies.”

I've enjoyed listening to the rerun on the radio. I was 6 at the time, I do remember watching it though. Highlights so far are The Who, Simple Minds, Bowie, Ultravox, U2 and Sting with Branford Marsalis.

I think that's all the chassis holes drilled/punched/cut now:

I knew what this would be as soon as I finished reading the thread - either an NS2000 or a Q4. Sellers never seem to know what these basses are!

As above, welcome back BA

Cheers buddy 🤟🎸

My hairline feels like it was, back then I resembled a bog brush, now I resemble a cue ball.

Welcome back to the low end!

I think you’ll be absolutely fine with that head and cab for all the live situations you described. It’ll have plenty of volume 👍

Was 40 years ago today...doesn't feel like it!!

Nice and good choice. Remember to post pictures when you get everything up and running.

That will be a nice bass if mine is anything to go by.

I think that most people will go for the Fender replacement, even though, Klos do a decent one. I have one. If I could get a neck made to the exact spec I wanted that would be it. The main sticking point is that everyone tends to do less than 42mm nut width. Modulus wouldn't even entertain doing anything other than 40mm. Neither does Geoff Gould or Bogart. To me, it's full custom the whole way.

I have one of these enroute Player II series

Having finished gigging nearly two years ago and selling off all my gear ( mistake number 1 ) I went back to playing guitar ( mistake number 2 ) Jammed with old band buddies and playing guitar I always felt I should be playing bass ! So a decision was made and a new Fender PBass Player II series, and MarkBass rig was put on order and arrives Tuesday ! My guitar stuff is up for sale ( haven’t got room at home for both nor the funds ) so I’m happy to say I’m a bass player again 😃

Yes, passive is an option by flicking the small switch. In passive mode, you only get volume, pickup pan and tone. In active mode, you get volume, pickup pan, tone, mids, bass and treble.

Lovely looking bass
