  1. Off the top of my head, the laney nexus 810 and markbass classic are around 10kg lighter each. 52kg isnt bad for a quality 8x10, but it cant be classed as "ultra lightweight" especially with 2 high quality competitors coming in 10kg lighter.
  2. Brilliant. Loved these.
  3. Thanks, it really does look gorgeous, the tort plate works really, and sounds fantastic.
  4. I've only had the precision, not the jazz I'm afraid.
  5. Up for sale is my as new Sire P7 version 2. Everything you could want in a bass. Looks stunning, nice to play. Passive AND active circuits. The active circuit is phenomenol. Rolled fret edges, ebony board. I'm reverting back to a standard p for a new band, so grab a bargain!
  6. Love this one even more!
  7. I kinda like the gold. It shouldnt work with the blue, but somehow does. Although my taste and style has gone out of the window this year!
  8. I've been messing about today with the legend holoflash and some recording to backing tracks, flippin heck! What a great recording sound! I used it through my stomp on svt setting and it's a lovely growly characterful sound that sits lovely in the mix. Cant wait to do some more.
  9. Me too. Never thought I'd want a blue bass - but that is fantastic!
  10. Hi all, I'm looking at a Fender player P, and was wondering if there are replacement scratchplate available. I'm looking at getting a sunburst like below, and replacing with a tortoise scratchplate. https://www.andertons.co.uk/fender-player-precision-bass-3-color-sunburst-pau-ferro-fretboard
  11. Yes, the photo looks good. The n115 is a bit shorter than the 410 so will be a lot easier to transport than the trace! They will also have been designed to work with each other so should be a great sound.
  12. The n410 and n15 would be massive!
  13. That's a stunning looking bass! Nice one. I have the Sire in the same burgundy. One of those colours that just looks amazing.
  14. I've previously always been locked in to one bass (plus cheap spare) per band. A usa sunburst precision in my first indie band, a red and white jazz in my function band, a yamaha red bb424x in a dance band, and whatever I needed to replicate in tribute bands. However, it became quite stifling, where I would have liked to try another bass, but couldnt or was that paranoid it wouldnt work I never did. However it's been really refreshing watching old youtube clips of The Bangles, of all bands, recently. Almost every video I've seen, even of the same song, the entire band just seems to be playing whatever they want (2 guitars and bass), and I kind of like that. The freedom to play what you want. Also, it has zero effect on the bands sound.
  15. I've gone into the way of thinking of: Main basses - for tribute band (so cant change them). Completely different basses just for the love of it - different looks, sounds and style, and see what I like. In this part I only ever buy then sell, so it doesnt cost me anything.
  16. Great videos. An honesty about them I like. Not a polished presenter, but that's a good thing. Also, some class lines ..... Including "to get the lyric ..... I had to go to the Bahamas...!"
  17. I dont think you can have one bass if you're gigging. You need a spare. So you end up with 2. Then 3. Then 4. Then back to 3. Then 4. Then 5. .....
  18. It says the cab is "ultra light" yet its 3kg heavier than my laney n410. The head looks nice though. For me, and I'm sure many others, if it can produce a weight to its sound, dare I say heft, is the deal breaker
  19. I had this very same issue. I had a standard blk and the v4 icon precision (roadworn). Couldnt find out which one was which, or what the differences where. The vintage (not the brand) looking ones are supposed to be warmer and more, or, vintage. The standards, more modern. They also have different necks. The std having a highly lacquered neck and the vintage v4 icon I had a smooth satin one. Although that may change on some models?
  20. Good point - I'll give that a try.
  21. I gave up a while ago. Nothing lost.
  22. Daft question, with there being no on off switch for the active circuit, is the circuit always on when a cable is plugged in? Also, if the battery is running out, or runs out, does just the eq boost and cut stop working, or the whole sound of the bass?
  23. Heres some photos of the holoflash legend. Without light on it and with. Now re strung with exl170s.
  24. I think they're stickers to show what notes are which. Still no reply from seller. A bit odd as its priced quite high, so I assume they must have some idea of value. But theyve no idea of what make it is ....
