Just been looking at this and must say it tickles my fancy as it does what I like - Take classic themes and mash 'em up to create something different! That is all!

[quote name='fjbass' post='1288060' date='Jun 30 2011, 06:12 PM']A Fender Jazz, or a G&L SB-2 with a #6 neck. The #6 neck is a vintage size, trim and comfortable. The Jazz neck is 1.5" at the nut.[/quote] This^ If you want the sound and fancy a Jazz, then that's your answer. There must be a good used Fender USA Jazz on here somewhere... Good luck, Jon

Rick, Are these now for sale with Andy Baxter? [url="http://andybaxterbass.com/guitars.php"]http://andybaxterbass.com/guitars.php[/url] Regards, Jon

[quote name='Clarky' post='1287837' date='Jun 30 2011, 03:09 PM']Sorry to go OT but did you get the issue sorted out with the small luthier Jon?[/quote] Yes and The Gallery are setting it up this week... Watch this space for the post match report.

[quote name='EssentialTension' post='1286790' date='Jun 29 2011, 06:39 PM']I seem to remember Basschatter wesfinn did this...[/quote] He did and I would suggest a PM to Wes to get all the goss. I would say from my experience that there's the same potential to be let down by a small luthier too and that if it's a CS Fender you want then go for it. Keep us posted, Cheers, Jon edit: Spelling!

As with most things in life - The more you can spend the better the gear will be. My recommendation is save up and get some Sennheiser Evolution stuff. It is [i]REALLY[/i] good. Also, check that the stuff you are getting/buying will be OK after the digital switchover next year. Cheers, Jon

I would recommend buying the Bill Fitzmaurice Omni 15 plans/design to use as it's a great bass cab. Click this link to find out about it: [url="http://billfitzmaurice.com/Omni15.html"]http://billfitzmaurice.com/Omni15.html[/url] Regards, Jon

[quote name='wombatboter' post='1284090' date='Jun 27 2011, 01:51 PM']Clayton's sparkle bass...[/quote] +1 Both of 'em (the purple & gold) were very cool looking IMO

A great bass with great character & story. Thanks for the 'show and tell' OHM!

[quote name='fender73' post='1281615' date='Jun 24 2011, 10:51 PM']Looks great onstage at Glasto.[/quote] +1

Very nice B5. You going for it/one?

That's classic!

[quote name='Lozz196' post='1280470' date='Jun 24 2011, 06:55 AM']For the classic P-Bass thump I`d avoid the SD Quarter-Pounder. I`ve had them in a couple of basses, and to me they seemed to extend the highs and lows, but remove the mids - essentially de-Precisioning the sound - and have a slight "metallic" twang to them. Good pickups, but not classic P-bass sound, more modern sounding, in my opinion.[/quote] +1 And a +1 for giving Andy at Wizard a bell - he'll see you right!

[quote name='Rick's Fine '52' post='1279834' date='Jun 23 2011, 05:05 PM']Thanks Jon, I'll definitely have a try,a nd get some pics up! cheers[/quote] Marvellous and look forward to it!

[quote name='Rick's Fine '52' post='1279804' date='Jun 23 2011, 04:50 PM']Thanks, sounds too easy to be true!!! I'll have a gander later, and see what i can do. Do the images stay there indefinitely, or do they time-lapse?[/quote] It really is that easy! I believe as long as you log in and use it every now and again that the images stay there.

Hi Rick, I use [url="http://photobucket.com/"]http://photobucket.com/[/url] It's free and all you have to do is create an account and then upload photos from your computer onto your account. You can then copy and paste the website link address onto here and a nice large photo will appear in your post. E.g.:

Hello Mal and welcome. What style of music do you play? Cheers, Jon

Just beautiful Rick and what a collection you've got! Do you have any picture links you could show with some more of your collection? Cheers, Jon

Only quickly looked but this covers it I think: [url="http://barefacedbass.com/uploads/But%20This%20Goes%20to%2011,%20Jan%202011.pdf"]http://barefacedbass.com/uploads/But%20Thi...0Jan%202011.pdf[/url]

The Fender Custom Shop ones like the Pino model are something else too...

On the D.I. front the Sound Engineer will normally put it in between your bass and amp...

Apologies if this has been mentioned before. Done a quick search and found nothing so here goes: After reading the chat on here about compression and what's nice to have on it the controls and meter on this thing make it look like the ideal candidate for getting some nice compression settings going with the bass...
