  1. This is a feedback topic for Wimpy.

    I have just received a Mike Lull M5V from him and cannot emphasize enough how much of a pleasure it was to deal with him.

    Communication was spot on, description of the bass was correct, packaging and shipping was really well sorted and above all he was really interested in making the experience in dealing with him a happy one.

    Deal with him in full confidence that he will deliver what he says and as agreed. It is really a pleasure to do business with him.

    Never hesitate to contact me if you want more info.

    rgds, Harry

    P.S. The Mike Lull is AWESOMEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I've just ordered the Nordy MM5.2 and a John East MMSR 4 (3 band 4 knob) to "vintage" my 1995 Stingray 5 string. You'll know exactly how the wiring should be done. Is it just connect Red+Black to the East "Hot" connector and the White+Green+Shield to the "Cold"?

    Any tips and especially a picture would be most appreciated, save me some trial and error BS.

    Thanks! Will also send PM.

    Here you go... if you click on the pictures, one of them's the wiring instructions. I've wired mine in both series and parallel just to see the difference and series has way more bottom end but less highs. Quite boomy in fact. Parallel is far more focused in the mid-range, with extra highs for good measure.

  3. You don't know what your missing, this is the best fretless I have ever owned. I just don't use it enough to justify keeping it, it's lonely :)

    As you will have gathered I have 35" and 34" Spectors and the transition is easy as can be, and to be frank 34" is a little easier to manage for fretless (keeps you in tune easier).

    Come on CrazyKiwi, you know you want it...... :)

    [quote name='Crazykiwi' post='1375089' date='Sep 16 2011, 03:56 AM']Hmm, if the fretless was from about 2000 and had a 35" scale, I'd have your arm off.[/quote]

  4. Thanks for the kind words Zig, especially the one about being an awesome player..... too kind :)

    I am quite sorry I'll see them go, but I guess prudence comes with age and it is just wise to sell them. The mrs got the sack (yeah for the economy!) and although she only worked part time, it still is a dent in our income and I have plenty of basses to go around.

    Just hope I find them good homes.

  5. Will make a point to post the best pics I can make with my Nikon to tempt you as much as possible....... :)

    The NS basses are awesome, plain and simple

    [quote name='Golchen' post='1370281' date='Sep 12 2011, 01:11 PM']An NS-5 is top of my want list! I'm short of those kind of readies at the mo but it would be good to see pix of all 3 basses.[/quote]
