    My eye (yes, I have two. Don't worry...) was caught by the cool looking lever at the top of the bridge - does this amazingly manly bass have a lever that deploys the string mutes? Bet MusicMan wish they'd thought of that before adding those fiddly tiny metal round screws under the bridges of Classic Stingrays. Seriously impressed by the intonation calibration markings on the bridge as well. If Bang & Olufsen made basses, they would make basses like this.

    Purchased a set of Lindy Fralin pickups from Walshy the past week. Great comms, super prompt, and no fuss to deal with at all. When a small issue cropped up, he was quick to help and provide a fair solution. Credit to the community as you'd expect. Thanks mate!

    As well as the thundering bass line, the demo versions (or at least the stuff they did before getting signed) also feature exactly what you’re referencing. The droning open D, whilst playing a melody on the G - akin to Hooky, Gallup - is all in there…

    I definitely favoured those raspy mids and punch low end. I’d love to find this P bass again. Fullerton ‘62 neck on a 70’s body, dimarzio P pup and a pair of 15’s delivered some warm lows too. My secret weapon (not pictured) was a converted HiFi preamplifier with a “loudness” control on it which paired very well with the punchy mids for a BIG tone@

    You don't think it fits right the tabs in the pfd i shared?

    Since developing arthritis in my fingers I’m playing a lot less guitar and thus am moving on much of my bass collection, keeping just a few essentials. Now I’m selling my Ibanez SRF700 fretless, I love this bass but I just don’t play it often enough to keep it any more. Full details here: https://www.ibanez.com/na/products/detail/srf700_1p_07.html It’s in great condition, other than a few marks around the jack socket. Also worth noting that the volume pot is a little loose but just needs tightening back up against the body. The bass is currently string with rounds, I may have the original Chromes it came fitted with. Collection from Watford, Herts preferred, but delivery can be organised at buyers expense.

    Everyone has gone against what I was going to say, be drastic! That mid control is like a Mini Moog, those amps have a lovely smooth treble so I used to engage ultra hi even if treble is at noon. I owned a mk1 SVT for a while but preferred the v4b ( late 70s), for me even though they're brand siblings that share an active switchable mid with massive boost, making each anp work to it's strengths was completely different, I found anyway. I never got to try the old v4b through an 8x10 so I guess the cabs being used would have caused the difference maybe.

    Definitely, in my first proper band much of the bass work was on the D & G, with a sly bit of chorus added in of course.

    ….and of course if you installed a pair of Dimarzio model Ps in there the adjustable pole pieces would have it covered anyway 👍

    It's a brilliant bass part. It's a shame the album version of the track had synth bass instead of a proper bass guitar track. It also reminds me of how many people were influenced by the whole post-punk/goth thing - the P-with-a-pick midrangey tone, the melodicism, the high-register fills, etc - straight from the Hooky and Gallup school of bass.

    Roland Bolt 60 The same Valve power section design as a Fender Deluxe Reverb Has Brand new Power Valves The Preamp needs attention as it is intermittently cracklly at the moment ( hence the price and parts listing classification) I guess it needs a service. I’ve been using it as a pedal platform bypassing the Solid State Preamp straight into the power amp and it that use case it’s given me no hassle. Collection only as lord know’s what devastation a courier might wreak!

    Okay, so I picked the bass up this afternoon. First jobs already done. Flats gone. Elixir 40-95s added. Black Scratch Guard added (and former single coil rout inspected). Mute kit turned the correct way around and general setup completed. So what we have here is a really light weight Natural Velvet 1995 Stingray 2EQ with an OBP-2 Preamp, but the HS Aguilar pickups have been replaced with the original MM humbucker. Sounds huge and plays wonderfully, barring some small extra adjustments. Oddly enough, the second control, which I presume was the blender still has an effect, despite the Single Coil pickup having been removed. It gives three distinct sounds between the centre detent and the two extremes of travel in the rotary control. It's almost as if the 'blender' is splitting between the two banks of the humbucker, and the central point makes them cancel each other out very slightly. Is this possible?! (I didn't do the rewiring. It was done by my mate's tech who previously owned the bass.) Anyway, the obligatory pictures now it's home...

    Since developing arthritis in my fingers I’m playing a lot less and thus am moving on much of my bass playing kit, keeping just a few essentials. Up for sale are a few of what I would say are my higher end pedals. * Peterson StroboStomp Mini - £90 * Darkglass X7 Ultra - £250 * Darkglass Alpha Omicron - £115 All in excellent condition (note the AO has some scuffs on the under side). Prices include insured delivery inside the UK. The StroboStomp and X7 ultra have their original boxes, the AO does not. No trade offers please.
