Same for me, but only on Chrome. Firefox mobile seems OK. -
Only had this since February, owned from new. In 100% A1 condition. It comes with a Hotcovers cover, also the Fender footswitch, which controls effects, switches patches and controls the looper and tuner. It's a cracking all in one solution, if like me, you want to ditch pedals but still keep your effects. The amp models and effects are great too, very well designed and easy to set up and tweak, or to create your own patches from scratch. It's only ever been my stage monitor, I sold my last rig as it was overkill, and this is still pretty loud!! I don't think volume has been past 10 o'clock. However, I just don't need an amp and this is an opportunity to down size further. Edited to add, it is 400w as is, through the 2 x 10 Eminence woofers, or you can run it with other cabs at 4 or 2.67ohm to get the full 800 watts. So, trade wise, active PA speakers or practice amps 😊 -
Ah man, now I know this exists I want it! Of all the P bases I've had my 2012 in sunburst was EASILY the best. It was about that weight and was just a peach. I had another 2012 at the same time, which was nice, but the sunburst one was the one.

I love the BB aesthetic too. When I first saw the 2025x I thought it was hideous, not sure what changed my mind. I love the look of the 35. Just looks so classy and refined.

@Al Krow nah, not that many. This year and next will probably be 150+/-. Last year I did 100 on one bass! I really should get another 🤔 I liked with those D'Addario strings that they still sound great after the newness wears off.
-
I felt a fraud, and thought best to change it! Haha. Yes, the ones that came stock are D'Addario EXL170-5. They're 45-130s. I really like them, plus they're very reasonable priced. I liked them as the ones on yours are, which are definitely worn in, but they could probably do with a fresh set if you like that new-string-zing! I'd have got another month out of them!

Dimebag. Just the circumstances of it. Horrific. -
If it doesn't make sense pm me and I'll record it. It's a fun bass part! I've got a bit of time tomorrow, so will check the chorus too.
-
That is useful. I weighed mine last night, just under 6.8lbs. Lighter than the gigbag it's in 😂
-
Haha, looks great! Nice rig, too.

@Ed_S the finish does seem thin. But, I think if it doesn't prove robust, it will wear nicely, a bit of natural 'road wear'. Dunno about yours, but the grain on mine is beaut as well. More so on the back than the front 😂 I just got in, very very happy with the bass! You guys were correct about it being a bit shy for low end. But this suited me well and I didn't actually end up boosting it. I can't believe how comfortable it is to wear. It wasn't just the weight, but the neck and body size and balance. Unfortunately didn't mess with EQ too much. But... Punchy! Amazing slap sound, really clean on the higher registers, lovely ring to chords. Great B string and a nice growl to it. I actually liked the stock strings alright too. They're not too rough for SS. Blurry spare room floor, un-vacuumed carpet photo to prove ownership ⬇️

Can't wait! Hoping I can get a few mins before soundcheck to give it a go. Or, after the gig. I usually end up with a global bass cut on my amp, so will remove that and start there. Thanks for the heads up 👍🏼

They do a hardcase?! I do have a Fusion, will probably use that, but will need a hardcase too.

My TT5 SL just arrived, and I'm out the door in 30 mins to a gig with a new band, so throwing it straight in. 1st impressions, it's light 😂 like, "this is witchcraft" light. The body is very light, but there is no neck dive and it sits nicely on a strap. The finish is beautiful, I thought it might look a tad boring, but it's great. I think it'll wear nicely too with age. Not plugged it in, but acoustically, it's bright and loud and resonant. I wasn't a huge fan of their strings, so we'll see how they go.Think she's gonna be a slapper. Lastly, their gigbags are still a bit of a token gesture. It's nice, but, come on...
-
Blimey! What are you feelings on Dingwall basses, then?! Haha.

Actually really surprised the P35 weighs that much! I thought Yamaha had weighed it for me and it came in around 9.6! Maybe they weighed a 735! I'll have to check old emails. It does sit well on the strap, glad you find it comfy. I liked the VVT controls, not for everyone, but I liked the anonymity of it. Granted, I didn't solo either, so the option to favour one slightly more than the other suited me well; and a decrease on one or the other gave some different and great results. Great weight on the Ibanez. You've definitely piqued my interest, I was on their website last night! I do need to check them out. Though, one of the gigs I do, I think the band leader would panic if I turned up with something non Fender looking!

I ran one of these with a Vanderkley 2x12. Can't really say enough about how good it sounded. Beautifully built too! -

Incredible lineup!

Sold Bas my beloved Yamaha BBP35, safe in the knowledge it was going to a good home and a fellow Yamaha lover. The deal was done at a halfway point, the airport! Despite the fact that trains and boats were the chosen forms of transport for the event 😊 Great communications throughout and a genuinely lovely guy. Bas knows his basses and it was a pleasure to chat all things bands and bass for an hour. Thanks for the coffee! I'll get them next time. Deal with confidence here guys 👍🏼
-
Someone put a deposit down on it a couple of days ago 🤔😉 I'm also in the camp of not loving the Delano/Glock combo ALL the time. IME it needed a certain amp/cab to sound its best. For me, it was all good until I bought a very clean and clear amp & cab, funnily enough a Glock amp. Looking forward to giving the Black Labels a whirl... A 2.9kg 5 string too, for what I need, it's already a winner.
-
This one looks to be SOLD subject to the usual 🙁&🙂 -
Thank you. I've dropped the price on this one to £900. I need to move it on and order its replacement, before the replacement is gone and before it's 8 gigs a week season!
-
Saved me once or twice too!

Gotta be one of the coolest looking basses?
