Cultural appropriation and covers
Stub Mandrel replied to DF Shortscale's topic in General Discussion
Given that George Harrison sought the tutelage of Ravi Shankar, I don't think anyone could call it appropriation, it was more of a gift to him -
New Fender Vintera II Roadworn 60's Precision

Aww man don’t be saying things like that. This Charcoal is my absolute favourite p bass colour. I’m thinking of driving over to Glasgow to try one at guitar guitar. I’ve no business tempting myself but I’ve been very impressed with the road worn series having owned an original series jazz RW which I loved but got nicked, a JMJ (twice) and my main bass, a Flea jazz. I’m not usually picky but would love to find a really light one in charcoal 🤞🏼for Glasgow. -

Just saw this. As someone who owned a Bass 400+ back in the day (probably the best-sounding bass head I ever owned), I love the look of it and I'm looking forward to trying one out. Now, how can I persuade them to make a lightweight version of the old 1516 cab?

Thanks @Sibob and @LukeFRC, useful information. David

Is that 48cm at the longest point, i.e. down the middle of the surfboard? A 43 x 29 blank like this would give you 51cm corner-to-corner.

The phrase "above and beyond" comes to mind. Ted was kind enough to meet me half way to make a deal for his MarkBass cab, and i cant thank him enough for that. Top man. Much appreciated. Thanks Ted

Ultra rare 32" medium scale Squier JV Jazz, made in Japan 1982-1984. This is a quality vintage instrument. Fantastic clear sound. Very easy to play with a nice low action. Weighs approx 3.5kg. Even though its medium scale, it doesnt feel like the frets size make it difficult to play at all. I'm looking for trades, but only with a passive P type bass. I can make a cash adjustment for the right bass. Bonus points for a J neck. What ya got? I can courier, but it comes with all the normal risks. Any other questions just give me a shout.

Strings Direct have them listed on their site, when I enquired in April they had none in stock and no idea if they would be able to obtain any more, their site still states “coming soon”. Looking at other website forums, it would appear that Musicman cannot source the original input sockets, they were manufactured by a third party and they are no longer in business, the one Musicman offer on their site is not like for like and has to be modified to fit.

New Fender Vintera II Roadworn 60's Precision
Iheartreverb replied to HeadlessBassist's topic in Bass Guitars
I played the charcoal P the other day and was honestly blown away. I was ready to be critical given the price, also not a P bass expert either. Both being said, it was light, resonant, felt great quality. The roadworn nature was subtle, tasteful and detailed. Really really impressed. -
I got this bass around the beginning of the year from EAD. Really cool bass. Looks great and plays superbly well! HUGE range of tonal options. Here are its mods: The original light oak finish has been stripped back and the body lightly stained with a black oil finish. The headstock has been reshaped (hint of Fodera maybe?). New tuners fitted (originals have been lost in the mists of time). Pickup and electronics are all original (and work fine). New knobs (again the originals are AWOL). Bridge cover and thumb rest added. The bass weighs 4kgs on my digital scales. I can post but would prefer a meet up. I am happy to look at trades for a passive P type bass. I can put cash on top for the right bass. Extra points for a J neck.

New Fender Vintera II Roadworn 60's Precision

Made in Ensenada rather than standard Mexico now? May have been a thing for a while, I haven’t owned a MIM Fender for about 15 years, so I’m a bit out of touch! 🤓 -
I have always played in cover bands and I cannot recall anytime when a song has been rejected by any of the members due to any of the reasons mentioned throughout this thread, if it’s a great song and we feel we can do it justice, then it’s in the set. We do not put every song suggested through a microscope and we certainly feel no need to offer the audience a trigger warning before playing specific songs, we play live to entertain an audience and enjoy ourselves while doing it.

Does the amp use an Icepower module or is it a proprietary design?
