If it as good as the other Ibanez's I have played then it will be spot on!

That is stunning...congratulations!

Jeff Berlin's opinion aside...this looks like a seriously good instrument.

That is an exceptionally clean job...kudos!

[quote name='dave_bass5' timestamp='1426162098' post='2715047'] Still in stock on Thomanns at the moment. [/quote] Aaaaagh...sir, you are sparking a GAS frenzy!

I am seriously tempted to purchase one of these. I was set on a Yamaha BB425X until the Sire's came along. I was almost hoping to hear negative feedback about them....but they seem too good at this price to miss!

There is a Lakland Bob Glaub currently for sale on this forum at a very reasonable £450, that is were my money would go if I wanted a P bass. Superb P basses...dare I say it, better than the Highway 1's

Yes...it all makes perfect sense now. The person you are referring to is most definitely not Jimmy Moon. He is of the highest calibre.

[quote name='Cameronj279' timestamp='1425986190' post='2713010'] I've heard a disturbing amount of horror stories about them. [/quote] Really? I have never heard anything other than glowing reports. I have personally used Jimmy for over 30 years and have found him to be exceptionally good.

[quote name='silky13' timestamp='1425979267' post='2712877'] Hi guys, I'm looking to get the jazz style neck on my 40th anniversary precision swapped for a precision style neck of same finish (birdseye maple) anyone able to suggest some good luthiers within reach of Scotland? And any luthiers to desperately avoid? I don't mind travelling for the right guy for the job! Cheers, Tom [/quote] Jimmy Moon, based in Glasgow is a fantastic luthier. Highly recommended.

Don't like his music, however I do like him.

Its all been said already and I agree with it all...apart from the Kate Bush is not a genius comment....she is!

[quote name='Weststarx' timestamp='1425917945' post='2712186'] Hi All, As I'm back on the market for another band I thought I should probably learn how to change key on the fly if I needed to. I've had a look at a few articles on the web but they all seem poorly explained and all seemed very complicated. Does anyone know of a simple guide or can someone perhaps explain it? Is it just a case of playing the same shapes/pattern but just sliding it up or down one/two/three frets? [/quote] Basically, yes. The principle reason for my use of 5 string basses is that the singers I work with have preferences for transposing popular covers into their preferred range. This opens up an extended low range and usually facilitates my ability to rescue the "bottom end".

Loving that Stingray tone.

Love Lakland basses and love the look of Dan's latest instruments. This one looks great congrats!

Seen them also, loud, weird, odd...great gig.

Play loads....buy your favourite.

Primus, their music is ahem....an acquired taste.

I own a BB714 - and it is a fantastic bass. Build quality, balance, feel, playability, design, sound...all just spot on. I have owned several Yamaha BB's....highly recommended.
