    The matte finish on the American necks is simply superb, whereas most of the MIM necks have that thick gloss. Also the rolled edges are a noticeable difference.

    I like both rounds and flats on Jazz Basses. DR Lo Rider nickel are my rounds of choice, La Bella 760FS flats!

    Which one did you go for in the end, Ander? In the same predicament at the moment myself. Leaning towards Fralin +5% currently!

    Check with Line 6 maybe that warranty may be transferable? I would have thought they would honour it as it can hardly be any more than a couple of years old?
  5. acidbass
    Under warranty I assume?

    Hit Songs 1950s to Present - Fender P Bass

    Pitch shift is probably my most used effect on the HX Stomp - it tracks excellently. Worth considering if you like multi effects pedals.

    I run mine first with compressor second - I want to make sure that the signal going into the other effects is as clean as possible. Also, some pedals e.g. octave track better without unnecessary lows/highs.

Really well made and a perfect fit. Plys (plies?) are Tort/W/B/W Plate great condition with minor swirling ***SOLD*** Thanks Danny

    I love mine but I use it mostly as a multi effects pedal and don't make so much use of the models or IRs. The amp models are very gainy to start off with but can be tamed nicely. I don't really like the cab sims but there are some great IRs out there which are much better for this purpose.

    It helps them sort the wheat from the chaff. No problems here

    I laughed a lot! Superb from Dunlop

    This post is remarkably similar to a Youtube video I watched recently where a guy compared a Squier Affinity Jazz to a Classic Vibe, a Fender Vintera and a Fender US, highlighting the diminishing returns the higher up the price point you go. Having played or owned all of the above, I tend to agree with him. A £400 bass should last you a lifetime with the build quality nowadays.

    I put foam into most of my pickup cavities. My advice is to go with thicker foam than you think you'll need (i.e. deeper than the pickup cavity) as the more it's compressed under the pickup, the less movement you will get from the pickup itself.

    I have to say that my tone is so much better with a Sansamp in the chain, and I would miss it if it wasn't there!

    I replaced the output jack on my P Bass with a Switchcraft Stereo 1/4" jack - got the tip from Ben Shepherd (Soundgarden). Basically, the jack clicks twice and is extra sturdy, even tho you'll obviously be running in mono. Working a treat so far!

    Sweet tuners - just put a set on a Geddy Lee neck. Bargain!

    Pubs make much more money on spirits and mixers, so really all it takes is a few regular drinkers and maybe 15-20 drinking punters there for the gig for the pub to break even or make a profit.

    Sorry to hear about your experience. As echoed above, I would use the momentum you have since gained from being back playing and learning, and surround yourself with musicians you respect who have similar goals. I guarantee you'll be successful in no time and will enjoy it so much more than the other band, where it sounds like you were compromising a bit on the material choices. Good luck with whatever you do
