For best results, dredge your vintage tonewood from the bottom of a lake, same as they do for those highly expensive drum kits. As for that screw in the G string saddle, I’m selling them for £40,000 each. Right, who wants some Magic Beans then..?

I got a strap with pictures of Fred and Sybil on it ❤️

It will be harder for them to come back and pinch it nothing bass-related as no one here understands bass. Eldest D is pictured playing a @Prosebass 5 at about three years old and twanging a jap jazz bass at around eight months but that’s the closest I got

Yes indeed Evri.

I've never been asked to bring any kind of bass for a gig or dep. In actual fact i didn't even know what the P-bass sound was until I joined this forum and read so much praise for them and decided to listened to examples. I do have an active bass with two sets of P-style pickups and in recent years put on flats but i doubt it has the authentic tonality of a passive P bass. I've taken it on a few dep gigs and got close enough to the previous bass player's sound that they noticed. I personally don't think I 'need' that sound and It's never gonna be my first call bass sound but if that type of sound was needed, i'd bring it along and see what I could do with it. Sounds monster with rounds on tho.

What if it’s vintage tonewood? 🍿 I’m also assuming that a longer g string screw on the bridge saddle makes it sound different also

Sounds familiar. It takes a lot of persuasion to get in, and then quite a bit more to get it out.

Best for a speedy recovery.

This '77 beastie dropped down the chimney.

Your description is spot on. I couldn't of put it better. I simply can't turn mine off.

Well done sir. 'Nuff said.

I wonder if they use cheap hardware? I had to trim 1mm off the end of the speaker jack socket on my Elf head as jacks wouldn't engage properly and vibrated out when I played it! They now 'click' in place.

It's definitely a good purchase if you're into Ric's.

Have a great Christmas folks

Sweet Like Chocolate (Orange) - Shanks & Bigfoot

Hammond MIDI pedalboard (Christmas present to myself though!) Gives me the scope to become Geddy Lee, or a great Organ player. .....or the more likely outcome: Playing drone notes hands-free while I practice noodling bass guitar in that key over the top.

It sounds remarkably like my Westone Thunder 1 - which is a compliment, I always say it sounds more like a Precision than a Precision.
