The Andy Summers pedals that made 'that sound' were the Echoplex and Electric Mistress.

If I remember correctly from one of the Thin Lizzy documentaries I watched, it was a flanger they used on the bass..

Why not just change the date then? And you can count me in too.

I'm so close to pulling the trigger on one of these. It started a few months ago when I bought a Harley Benton P shorty from Thomann just to try a short scale out. Best £68 I've spent in ages, that bass is so much fun to play. I've done some basic upgrading - I put a set of LaBella flats on, new wiring loom, a Quarter Pounder pick up and a bridge cover. (I bought the strings, the rest were spares I had lying around) It sounds killer and it's now my main bass in one of my bands, we play old soul & RnB. Then I stumble across the Fender site and the Mustang PJs. Uh oh. The olympic white is so nice. The OP's pics look lovely and my GAS is raging again.

I just sold Paul a pedal. A very smooth transaction, another top BCer. Thanks Paul.

I changed my playing style a few years ago to a low action and light touch. I completely overhauled my playing style & technique. I also learned how to set up my basses properly and I ditched my compressor. It was a six month journey to get my playing feeling natural & normal again but I haven't looked back. Like you, gig and rehearsal fatigue just isn't an issue any more. You will get your dynamics working again, it may take a little time to find the subtle touches, but it's all there waiting for you. Be patient and keep at it.

I just sold Rob a pedal. Yet another great BC transaction. Good comms and very easy to deal with. Definitely recommended. Thanks Rob.

I've just moved from Cubase to Reaper.

I just sold a pedal to Kev. This sale couldn't have been easier. Another great BCer. Thanks Kev.
