  1. [quote name='YouMa' post='407238' date='Feb 12 2009, 02:55 AM']How did you get on with the john craven JJTee, I was going to stick some wizards in there to really get his vintage newscaster thump going. I gigged the bullitt baxter last night and he had a beautiful fast neck. Regards ,mark.[/quote]

    Mark, I can't thank you enough for the Craven - he really is superb: full bottom, warm mids and a nice zing in the upper register. A quality piece of kit. I think I'll keep the original pick-ups, unless some late 70's Swap Shop p-bass ones pop up on Ebay. The original Newsround hardcase is a work of art in itself - so much nice than the cheaper re-issue Countryfile softcases you see for sale.

    As for the Johnny Morris offer - I am tempted. But I would prefer a fretless, as I already have the fretted Terry Nutkins as part of my Animal Magic collection.

    £1.69 for Stilgoe?! Come on Ben, you know he's worth WAY more than that!

  2. Good question - I'd say you've hit the nail on the head with your description. The GK is generally brighter sounding when set flat, so I tend to back off the treble/presence when playing the Fleabass, but it has a fuller bottom end than the flat TE sound. The TE has a wider palette of tones which I guess is obvious with the 12-band EQ, and you can get most solid state sounds out of it, whereas the GK has THAT sound which is there throughout and which I guess you either love or hate! The TE compressor is great.

    Now sold!

  4. All analogue! A pretty warm and organic sound to my ears, but I've never really had the chance to compare it directly to anything else.

    How are you getting on with Bullet Baxter?

    [quote name='YouMa' post='403027' date='Feb 7 2009, 08:19 PM']I presume this pedal is analog is there a lot of difference between this and a digital type of phase shifter?. I know analog is thicker sounding usually.[/quote]
