  1. I went from the Shuttle to the Streamliner, so found it did warm my sound up a bit when compared to the crystal clear Shuttle.
    I'm driving a NeoX T 212 at 4 ohms and haven't run into the clip light or clicking noise just yet. My settings are like dmccombe7's, normally I just set and forget and adjust volume for different venues.

    I've gone the other way! Taken La Bellas off my '51P & tried TI Jazz Flats. Only had them on a week but don't think they feel right for me. They're a bit lightweight by comparison, not by gauge by sound, a bit twangy or too bright.

    I think they will be more suited to a Jazz bass I've just acquired :happy: so I'll be fitting my long time favourites - GHS Precision Flats - to my '51P & stringing up the '62 Jazz with the TI's.

    Good choice. I have my P's strung with La Bella's and my Jazz strung with TI's, Good call the jazz and TI's they are definately a good match.
    I haven't been able to try the GHS Precision Flats yet, but they are on my list of must tries. Wonder how they would sound on a Ray? I have TI's on it atm, even tho it sounds good they could also be just a little too brite for my tastes. No rounds for me thank-you!

  3. Isn't it a great feeling :)


    My first Stingray. 2EQ.
    Never thought I'd go back to active basses, but these just pop and growl so nicely and have pretty fast necks on them.
    I changed the pickguard over from the standard black one to this white pearl just to personalise it a bit.

    Thanks to our Nick (Magnolia) for sorting out the shipping and patiently waiting for funds to clear.

  4. Owning a couple of P's and a Jazz and having just added a Stingray to the arsenal, I'd say they are all slightly different animals, (can't go wrong with either) but as to which ones best, that will depend mostly on my mood and the sound I'm after.

  5. Nice one.
    I have a set strung through on my 2009 Jazz and another set waiting to go on my Stingray once it arrives B) I like really like the feel of the Nickel and the TI's low tension, you can really dig- in with them and get some pop.
    On the other hand I have La Bella's on my P's and they will stay there till they fall off or rust.
    Lots of choice and variations out there in flats land.

    I bought a GB Shuttle but the Orange sp212 cab whislt it gives me 600 watt handling doesn't move air. I'm looking for a cab weighing about 30 lbs to go with it, excluding the GB cabs can anyone suggest a suitable cab thats light and portable?

    What do you find wrong with the GB cabs?
    I only ask as I run a Neo x 212 and find it a great match for the Shuttle and Streamliner.
