MIJ Mustangs - was black/black/maple ever produced?
Paul S replied to Paul S's topic in Bass Guitars
Certainly looks that way. I'll keep my eyes peeled for USA ones or Squiers and decide at the time how much I want to spend. Ta. -
Nah....deffo Jamerson you can tell, there was only one Jamerson the King of the Bass.
-
I think the answer is no. They made an MIJ in black/rosewood but not with a maple board as far as I can see.

Precision advice - don't read if you hate P basses

If you go for a genuine 70s P, you'll find a huge variation in necks. You need to try a few. -
What’s your location?
-
But it still warrants you sharing the picture.

My 2012 Ford Mondeo and 2007 Vectra Estate both did the job with a Thomann rectangular hard case. I doubt my current Qashqai would take it though.

+ = ! As if the above is horrifying enough, you want to pull its eyes out too!?! Nooooooooooooooooooo! -
I remember where I lived as a boy, near Ravenstone village in Bucks, there was a quarry nearby. You could just see the conveyors on the horizon from our house. There was a constant low level grinding noise from it. It's not possible to say for certain but I am sure that was louder than the background grind that I sometimes hear as an adult. Of course now, I live near the city of Derby and there is a lot of local industry that runs plant day and night.

Hi my Friend, I'm afraid not, I really need to shift gear for cash - unless you have a Laverda Mirage cylinder head you can trade.... 😉

Is it normal not to reciprocate feedback now?
- Today

Again - how decent? How low do they go?
-
Sold, pending payment.

I'll never be able again to pull out my picture of a Daimler DS420 hearse when questions like this are asked. You won! 😊

Dear grief - .016 - .060 strings? .060???
-
Skank, Thanks for that. I was puzzled by the absence of the reverb tank in the photo you posted then had a laugh when I clicked on the link. Great idea!
-
Peacock oil would prob be ideal for that - very subtle indeed so tint build is really controlled. I'll give someone a nudge I do agree it would likely bring the subtlety of the eyes out a bit. Lovely lump of maple there, good birdseye is hard to find.

Fine pair Keen to know how you reckon the sound compares, as I feel very familiar with the 60s and 70s Fenders, but no experience with the Lakland. The one thing I get from a Fender P is a kind of punch / grunt that a Jazz never gives me. I've wondered about a Lakland for a while. I've heard the Fender P described as a one-trick pony which is not fair. I find if you back off the right hand a little, it also has a really clear but rich lower end with a warm musical top on it, not the high snap of a Jazz, a bit lower and more 'notey'. Sounds into words is tricky eh ?!

FWIW, some pix and descriptions here of Dale's rig at a club gig in 2016. Outboard reverb into two original Showman amps into a 2x15 and a 1x15 loaded with JBL's Ferocious.

How good is the Zoom B3n? I brought one to find out.

I’ve recently replaced the majority of my analogue effects with one of these; digital effects have come s LONG way in the last 20 years! -
New Mesa Walkabout-style high powered amp WD-800....and new cabs...
agedhorse replied to Musicman20's topic in Amps and Cabs
There's nothing to prevent it technically, but in the event of a problem you would be on your own as the in-country service agent will not be obligated to repair it (under warranty or not). By the time you pay all the import fees and taxes, shipping and such, I doubt it would be worth the risk. Besides, it undermines your local importer, dealer and service agent's effort to do business in your own country. -
Two of the very best 112 cabs available today?
machinehead replied to Al Krow's topic in Amps and Cabs
I agree. My BB2 and Super Midget combined, is as much volume as I'll ever need (actually, more volume than I'll ever need) - and tone to die for. Frank.
