Queue invasion of American Rush and Tool fans waving bunches of dollars! These things are generally £6k plus these days....4 string mk2s being the most expensive for some reason. And remarkably they still sell at those prices. What are they thinking?!

Worst amp I’ve ever used. Every rehearsal studio had them back in the day. Just awful, the later stingray was terrible too.

This. I miss all of the intentionally bonkers entries, though the unintentionally bonkers ones make up for it.

Jazz or P Bass neck effect ease of play?
dclaassen replied to DocTrucker's topic in General Discussion
As with most things to do with instruments, it’s mainly up to personal preference. I’ve got big beefy hands, and prefer the feel of most jazz necks. I know from experience though, that I also can quickly become used to playing on a different profile. Fivers are, for me, even more a matter of getting the right feel. Play lots of them before you buy. -

I've also stumbled across some folk suggesting through body stringing being preferred for mainly fingerstyle players. Does that make a great difference to the feel too? None of mine are through body strung. Edit: Scrub this question. Found a good chat on it via a web search and synopsis on the balace seems to be negligible difference. https://www.talkbass.com/threads/thoughts-on-thru-body-vs-bridge-stringing-on-same-bass.1484499/page-2 -

It was a short scale! I bought it off ebay (only £60!) as I wanted a PBass in the fold and then realised it may be short scale before it arrived, which it was. I had already planned to swap over the pickups and hardware from my older project Warlock, but then decided to swap the neck too. Neck fit like a glove, scale from nut to bridge checked out, and was able to get intonation set ok. It's very light, but perhaps having a light one in the group isn't a bad thing for when my back's having an off day! -

Thanks all. It never occurred to me that the nut width may be different on the two basses. I'm going to keep playing them all and look really close at setup soon. I wanted to know what to look for soon as I still want to build up a dual humbucker five string at some point, and would rather that sat in my sweet spot! -

Just come across this thread... Used one of these briefly in the mid 70's and quickly changed it for an Orange valve amp. Worst bass amp l have ever played through by more than a country mile! I hope you didn't buy it mate...

That's very kind of you sir! I appreciate it. I know that's there's another new bass player out there that needs it more. Thanks for thinking of me
