If my recommendation is wrong it won't cost you anything! [/quote] Can't say fairer than that. I would most certainly be taking Alex up on that offer.

I love the sound and feel of flats on a P bass. For me though, they don't work with the band that I currently play with and I find that zingy rounds are a much better fit. My fretless which only gets played at home, is wearing a set of status half wounds, as recommended by discreet. I am very impressed, not only with discreet but also the strings . Super comfortable to play, with a warm, bright non muddy sound.

[quote name='Tradfusion' timestamp='1471717128' post='3115319'] Really nice amp heads... Has anyone reading this tried out any of the Handbox cabs or combos yet? [/quote] I not aware of anyone with a cab or combo over here.

[quote name='Lozz196' timestamp='1471709877' post='3115259'] If you like the GK tone, I`d stay in house and look at the MB Fusion amps. They do the classic GK sound, but due to the pre-amp valves can really warm up and become darker as per your needs for the new band. Plus they`re very light/portable so really fit all requirements. [/quote] Have to agree with Lozz and it's what I use.

I love the industrial look of this rig looking forward to getting another Handbox amp in a couple of weeks.

What rotten luck

A total gent to deal with. Excellent communication throughout our recent dealing. I'm very happy to recommend.

[quote name='TheGreek' timestamp='1471346772' post='3112293'] Ooops, sorry...No model number on the ad so I wasn't sure if it was worth a punt - I won't now...good luck [/quote] In truth Mick, it's on my watch list but so is a whole load of stuff. I really need to be selling at the moment, not buying, so you go ahead mate.

Yes, this one has been on my watch list for a few days. I suppose I'll be bidding against hordes of BC'ers now

I like my fretless with virtually no relief, at what would be the eighth fret position, when holding the string down at the end of fret board and first fret.

[quote name='crez5150' timestamp='1471256408' post='3111548'] Ha... Cheers. Where in the country are you? I'll let you know when we are local [/quote] I'm in Herts.

Well done Bob, long may it continue

I'm offering set ups, maintenance, repairs, restrings etc. I'm in Herts.

Good luck with it Bob, look forward to hearing of your debut with the Jazz or Blues band.

This has been a lovely read to start my day off with.

I've merged the two threads

Which model have you gone for Bob?
