ah sh*t!

looks like they are just custom vintage single coils, so maybe find out the type from fender and get the same pickup. or grab a new set, i like above like the nordstrand pickups ive got in my squier andy

def i was very happy with it for what i used andy

[quote name='Woodinblack' timestamp='1421102266' post='2657283'] Looking for an octave up sort of sound. The Zoom B3 does it but seems to be out of tune with itself when you are doing an octave. Anyone know if the Behringer Ultra Shift is any good on a bass? it isn't advertised as a bass effect, so not sure what its tracking is like [/quote] had one of these as a whammy replacement worked really well, sounds whammy esc so quite digital. andy

only good things to say about my vm jazz, but as above get out and play a few fenders and see how they compare to your squier if its just the fact they play the some but the pickups in one are better the price of new pickups or a new bridge will be much less than the difference in the 2 basses prices. andy

love the wiring loom! well worth checking out! ive got Nordstrand pickups in my jazz, really happy with those. andy

really happy with how it sounds and plays, still a bit of fiddling to do with the action but its sounding good https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eds3RZ7d26c

now just to wait for the wife to wake up so i can play it using my amp! [URL=http://s245.photobucket.com/user/0175westwood29/media/sdfb.jpg.html][IMG]http://i245.photobucket.com/albums/gg72/0175westwood29/sdfb.jpg[/IMG][/URL] andy

oooo all the goodies arrived today! sd 1/4 pounder and some dr fat beams, going for a low end beast with this one! i show it of a bit in this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QE_xICQ__qs andy

pretty much agree with lozz, the sd, just sound a bit fatter all round, but not muddy. went down the sd route as i cant atm justify the money to try the aguliar pups out and the nordstrand p bass pup is a bit to much money atm. found this video which shows the pickups well https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lFasRbajFy4 andy

So......another new bass for me, saw this little beauty and couldnt help but want it, for the small price of 150 quid. awesome looking thing, plays really nicely (may have to take the gloss of the neck tho but we will see) has an upgraded wiring loom ([color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif] Ki0gon wiring loom ) makes the tone control alot more useful to me. [/font][/color] have got myself some new Dr fat beams, and also a seymour duncan quarter pounder so should be even more awesome when they get thrown on there!

bought a pbass from lozz, awesome guy to deal with and the packaging of the bass was amazing! was bomb proof! deal with confidence andy

just looks a bit ugly to me. andy

was really interested in this, and does seem strange that its totally gone. the price point didnt really worry me, but maybe not enough big pro muso's wanted it as lets be honest a normal pub gig guy really doesnt need an amp that big. maybe they have gone back to the drawing board for a redesign? andy

[quote name='Merton' timestamp='1420220413' post='2646848'] I currently own 3 Ashdown amps: I have to say I think it's their speakers which let them down, these all sound incredible through my Barefaced cabs - full bodied but punchy and articulate as well. I once had the misfortune of gigging a Hartke HA3500 through an Ashdown MAG 8x10 cab - should have been plenty but the cab ruined the Hartke's sizzle completely. Worst rig I ever used, dare I say it was an Ampeg SVT stack, again the cab just sucked the life out of the tone so it was inaudible unless stood directly in front of it... Have never managed to successfully (IMO) gig an Ampeg rig actually.... [/quote] now thats really interesting! for me the worst cab ive played thru was a really old laney 115 god awful, and the worst amp has to be an old behringer ultrabass however it saved the day after my ampeg head blew up! so cant hate it to bad but back to the cab, i really like my 810 mag, absolute steal at just over 430 quid! however mine is the newer version. andy
