    I suppose I’m kind of lucky that most of my fave players use Precisions (big surprise of the year, lol). Still doesn’t stop the temptation though, I must just be weak of will ☹️

    Agree, TC Polytune Clip is excellent, the only clip on tuner I’ve been able to use live without any problems. All the others had problems with the E in a live environment, and with background music, not the TC.

    Agree, in general this has been the thing that has influenced my purchases of Stingrays over the years, however every time I’ve done this I’ve realised yet again that I just don’t like the sound they make when I play them.
  4. Lozz196
    Yep, then the only bit visible to the audience is the clip part, which often is smaller than the logo of the manufacturer.

    And I’ve now got it, am halfway through and it’s a very good read so far.

    I’m ok but in my old punk covers band the singer was dreadful. And it used to make me laugh that when we played Gangsters by The Specials inevitably he’d scream at me: ”Whats the first word”. So I’d shout “Why”. And then he’d shout “Cos I’ve forgotten it”. So I’d shout back”Why IS the first word”. And so on......

    Pretty much the same as @Marvin be in a band. Never had any aspirations to any specific venues, just after seeing the “live” bit in Bohemian Rhapsody I knew that’s what I wanted to do.

    No not really, I was in a band with 3 gtrs, 2 basses, drums & keys so we had to all find our own sonic space. I was the “low down” bass, most work done on E & A, locking with the drums.

    On my PF500 I engaged the Ultra Low, left all the rest of the eq at midday, and had compression at 10 o’clock, gain at 2 o’clock (set to the light flashing as per the manual). For finger style I’d probably engage the Ultra Hi as well .

    Marshall MB, Fender Rumble, Ampeg BA, Ashdown After Eight/Perfect Ten, you can get any of those used within budget and all are plenty good for home use.

    It’s bound to affect it, sellers will have to factor in any extra costs. Just means that used gear won’t be such a bargain anymore, but still way better than buying new.

    It has to be whichever you enjoy playing the most- if you can try them both that is. If not do a YouTube search on each and try and make the judgement on the sound that each makes. I’m not particularly up on Gibson basses but I think the 3 is more versatile due to having two pickups so that might be a factor.

    That is THE rig I would have loved, sadly one flight of stairs and 30 years too many are in the way of that ever happening.
  14. Lozz196
    I think I’ll keep my eyes open for when these come back in stock, looks like a great but of kit.

    Sorry, someone else got in with them pretty much straightaway

    Good on him, a great gesture in these strange & difficult times.

    At the moment I’d be happy enough being able to rehearse regularly.
  21. Lozz196
    No, it’s a regular 2015 US Standard Precision, but it has so much sentimental value - first Rebellion Festival, first European Tour, recorded our last 3 albums with it - that I don’t want it out of the house. Not fussed about it getting dinged, just don’t want some gyt stealing it.
  22. Lozz196
    Yeah, I suppose me switching allegiance to Jazz Basses must have been like one of those Dr Who episodes where Earth goes off kilter/out of its natural orbit.
  23. Lozz196
    At our last band practice I took my ABM600 and our guitarist - a major Alter Bridge fan - said how much he liked the sound as it reminded him of Alter Bridges bass.
  24. Lozz196
    Agree, whenever I’ve used a Peavey, be it amp/cab or combo I’ve been more than happy. Strange really, they just never seemed to me to be that fashionable, even when all bass gear was heavy, yet the sound is superb.
  25. Lozz196
    Glad all was ok when you took it out of the case, must have been a tense moment to say the least. And what a great bass, congrats.
