Thanks guys ... thought no one was gonna say 'hello' ..... Si ps. Geddy Lee jazz is ace (having Warmoth neck sanded down to simillar spec) .. don't know about other jazz basses (MIA etc) but can't see myself ever buying another. Will post spme pics when I've sussed it out (& taken some)

Hi all, name's Simon .. live in Bradford (W.Yorks) though not all my life (thank god ! .. just kidding its ok) .. anyway, I stumbled across this forum when I was reviewing pups etc, read some really useful posts .. no doubt many more on here. Usually check harmony central for product reviews but this is a great way of interacting with like minded people .. can pick loads of brains for juicy (tech) stuff etc ..... can probably find (sell) great gear too ! Still pretty new to bass playing .. about 5 years (forgive the pick playing .. used to play (mediocre) guitar) .. got into by chance when bass player quit my brother's band .. haven't look back since .. love it ! Still play bit of guitar cos it's sometimes easier writing riffs etc ... will tell you a bit about some gear I have/had .. still on going I guess ... - Fender Geddy Lee Jazz Bass - Warmouth Jazz (replacing Fender Noiseless pups with SD QP's .. had already ordered them before I read about Wizard pups on here .. will give em a try) - Ibanez DWB3 (sanded & stained - looks much better but don't really use it anymore .. will probably post in 'for sale' forum soon) - Phil Jones Sixpack & 9B - Ashdown Superfly (backup) - EBS Unichorus (on its way !) .. Boss BF3 (on it's way out !) - Boss TU-2 - maybe EBS Microbass II .. gonna check it out on Monday .. so any recommendations (esp. for home recording) The following has gone (slight regret but only gear I've sold & actually made a profit from !) - Trace Elliot GP12 SMX - Mesa Boogie Strategy 400 Stereo I play bass in a band called ORCHID (myspace.com/orchidrockband) .. check it out if you like, got some demos & pics on there. We're always looking for gigs, though have a 'temp' drummer at the moment .. not sure what he's doing as he's in 3 other bands (so if you know anyone in Leeds/Bradford are) Anyway, after reading/surfing the forums I think I've found a great site & you all seem really helpful & friendly .. cheers Si
