My BB2024x is one of the nicest basses I own; very well put together, great sound, fantastic neck and very versatile. But I still prefer playing my one trick pony P Bass which has many faults.....
First Bass Owned: '62 P Bass (still have it)
'Go To' Bass: Warwick Thumb NT
'Your' Bass: Whatever bass I'm playing at the time - still sounds like me whatever I use, just a variance in tone
I used FedEx to send a bass to France recently and they were really efficient. I paid for the three day service, which was an OK price but the bass was an expensive one and I wanted it fully insured, and the bass arrived by 9am the following day.
