OMG - the GAS attack I didn't know I had LOL!

That's a beauty Jay. 

Didn't know where else to post this so this looked like a good thread to share in - I noticed Origin Effects sell slightly discounted 'B Stock' pedals on their website. There's currently Cali76 Bass Compressors - Black and Silver versions - as well as a DCX Bass and Bassrig '64! Get stuck in folks:

(I'm not affiliated with OE in any way)

I have been accumulating these pedals for a while and then got a Nano for my birthday which meant I could actually build the board!

Then in a bout of 'small world syndrome' Origin themselves posted this pic of theirs yesterday LOL

There's no '51 style basses in the sold gallery:

Wow - that's a rare bird and what a looker!

My latest board. I was running just the Microtubes Infinity and the tuner for ages but treated myself to the LHz Hazard Lamps preamp pedal for some of that lovely Spector Haz Lab oomph in the chain!

More good info here @PinkMohawk

In a 'small world' situation I bought a bass off @Austin1303 from another platform but I didn't even see, or know, he was on here with it for sale as well!

Anyway, it was a smooth deal and Austin is a great guy to buy from. Thanks again. 

Currently 3 TT-800's in stock at Andertons!

Great idea Clarky and I chipped in as well.

I bought a gig bag from James and it was the smoothest of smooth deals and everything was as expected.

Thanks again,

Jon

He is/was a bass legend. I didn't know anything about him before his appearance at the 2016 SE Bass Bass and what an introduction to the man and his career.

RIP Herbie and thank you for the music/knowledge/stories.

Wow - very nice and GLWTS

I hear you there Mr. C. and yeah, these have 'case queen' written all over them.

Hopefully Sadowsky are doing what Gibson do - Release the top end custom shop version first then roll out a production version in due course!

Has anyone here on BC snagged one?

@Clarky - Is this one for you?

Love, love, love this but currently £630 short LOL

Loaded question on the Tonepump.

 

Anyone adjusted theirs down?  Odd one, maybe my ears are changing, but I've been happy with the Euro-X for the last year or so, just put some new strings on (Elixir Nanowebs) and it sounds quite harsh.  Never really experienced such a tone change.

 

Took a look in the control cavity, rolled the Tonepump right back and reintroduced it a little.  All good.  Was really surprised at how hot it was when ramped up to full.  Just nasty.

Oh yeah, it was the first thing I done when I got my Euro 4LX!

All from sage advice on here as well.

Repro bridge as well. If the shop can’t spot that not sure I’d have confidence in their ability to authenticate the whole thing.

There’s a few things look less than authentic on that bass to be honest

This is why I love BC!

Would you 2 fine fellows mind expanding a bit on what the giveaways are?

I'm genuinely interested and love building up my knowledge on this type of stuff.

Cheers,

Jon

Refretted but pretty original and mojo'd up '65 Jazz for £7.5k here at Charlie Chandler's Guitar Experience (no affiliations BTW!)

Jesus wept. If I had 3k I'd be in the car right now. Sounds like an absurd bargain.

 

Me too!

I bought a gig bag off Michael and everything went smoothly. 

Many thanks and you're a credit to the Bass Chat community.

Another that doesn't want to go into detail but the worst customer service ever.

£297 for a 4 string B stock Jazz bass!

There's also the Fender Mark Hoppus second gen signature bass with the slightly forward reverse P pickup - Didn't that win a P bass blind test at a bass bash @Lozz196?
