Well, I have no need for a jazz, a cab, or a Sterling!

Haha that's a fair enough reason I suppose

I thought I had 500 quid, but then the road tax came up, and the MOT, and the washing machine broke.
Now i have f*** all.

Get the cab and the jazz, 2 things are better than one.

Off to andertons to test things out again!

What would I do?

Neither.





But it doesn't matter what I'd do. Are you just buying gear for the sake of it? Do you have a specific need in mind? What gear do you have, what needs do you have, etc etc.

Why would you do neither? just curious

Hi again, when I said I realised today, I was making my post a bit more interesting
I've been drooling over both basses for a while now, and have been and tested both, I preferred the stingray but I loved the jazz too, ahhh I just don't know!
yes I only have the one cab at the moment, and I don't really need the second if im honest, i just feel like im wasting all that extra power!mi feel like i owe it to gk to get the second cab, haha!
I don't spend my money drinking or going out all the time, I don't really spend it on anything to be honest, I'm a bit boring really :s so I like to spend my savings on basses and the such, which is why I'm looking for advice and options, I'm not buying anything because I need it or anything like that, not even actively gigging at the moment, just band practicing a few times a week.
I just like to spend my money on my interests!

Hope my rambling made a slight bit of sense.

Hello all,

So I woke up this morning and realised, I have a predicament, so I came here for some advice!

I have some money to spend, about 500 of your finest English, all sounds great, but here is said predicament

Do I buy....

Squier VM jazz and a second cab for my GK MB500

Orrrrr

Sterling by musicman ray34

What would you guys do? All opinions welcome!

Jack

Nothing really round my area, I took a drive up to andertons last week, but theyre bass room is quite small, is there any dedicated shops for bass players?

Err, sorry I dont know the difference, the one that's around the stated price!

Yep! Get a squier jazz instead or buy my Fleabass

I have a Fleabass, and as much as I love flea, don't bother, nice looking bass, but hard to play and doesn't really have much of a sound, I imagine with a new pickup it would be ok however

Hi all, so im after a ray34, have about 450 to spend, what are the chances of one coming up for sale? See em much? Or alternatively anyone know of one selling?

Thanks

I have this amp, have a bump for its awesome crunchy loudness

4003 is back from setup today - had a quick play in the workshop. I figured the bloke was going to straighten the neck a bit and adjust the bridge, but holy moly, he's also filed down the nut, taken the laquer coating off the frets, flattened them all out and given them a nice polish as well! Very impressed! I had a quick play and it's feeling/sounding very nice indeed. Will give it a solid run at practise tonight and then on tour for a week. chuffed!

f*ck all the ric hate, i love my 4003.

I only hate them cos I can't afford them

Do I go sterling ray34 or save up and get a Stingray? That is the question

price drop £160

I get the strange feeling you like fenders...... Sunburst ones...

Ok so This morning a mate called and said he needed a new amp, so i agreed to go with him!

Off we went to andertons and obviously I left him to it and went to check out the few basses I could afford...
was pretty sold on a squier vintage modified, sounded nice, action was way too high but nothing that couldn't be sorted. I also compared it to an American made jazz bass, and I wasn't overly impressed, they felt pretty darn similar in my eyes! And fingers of course.

As I was standing around waiting for him to buy some 6 string rubbish... And I thought " I know, let's try out a musicman sterling " oh my god!! bad move, now I'm in love with a bass I can't afford and will do anything to get it, so let's change the thread, suggestions on how to raise £650

Where abouts are you based? What is the fretboard?

Thanks for all your help! Going to check out some of the reccomended ones today! What are these musicman subs like??

I have a Fleabass and an ibanez at the moment, it's mainly for light rock music I suppose!
I just prefer buying new to be honest, someone has to after all!

Hi! So the time has come to fund a bass, £350 to spend! And obviously I want the best I can get, no restrictions really, just to add, I want to buy brand new, which I know makes it hard!!

Couldn't be happier with my mbe!

Almost 800 views! Someone make an offer! Great little amp!

Still here and open to offers guys, pm me I really need this gone

Only bought it 2 days ago! It's a gallien Krueger

So you think a second 115? It doesnt sound bad, it's just not got the kick im after, maybe that will go away from a second cab!
