    A win win! Great to hear!

    I couldn’t possibly comment!

    Ignore, I’m being a doofus! 🤣

    NBD - JMJ Mustang arrived this morning. Unfortunately, pesky work is going to get in the way of me playing it until later.

    I could jump at this as I’m local to Birmingham but won’t. Personally before moving this on I’d be giving @Ashdown Engineering a shout about the issue…

    U OK hun?
  8. mr4stringz
    Likewise! And yes, certainly more so than the more modest neck of the woods I’m in!

    Ah, you’re on here too. Glad you got back OK with it!

    It’s a fair point regarding paid reviews, but to be launching signature products from players of the calibre of Geezer, Myung and Pratt with not even a video from the artists themselves is odd to say the least. Thought the same thing with the Shavo head/Geezer head/Zender pedal etc. etc.

    Just hear waiting for someone to mock up a Nelson Mandela sig bass. Prerequisites include that it must have AnC strings.

    There’s a document linked off the Fender Custom Shop site that covers their process. That’s about all I know! http://www.fmicassets.com/sites/fender.com/themes/img/customshop/2021/2021_Custom_Shop_Design_Guide.pdf

    Yep. Green Russian all the way.

    100% this.

    Some good alternative options here, though it has to be said that with the Unibass, Fission or Helix the “tight budget” prerequisite isn’t going to be met. Realistically a used LS-2, used SubnUp mini and a dirt box at the cheap end (if there’s not already one lying around) could all be got for £100 or less and would cover what’s needed at this stage.

    I have one in the same colour, which also looks great with a tort guard (think I posted a pic in the short scale thread somewhere). Lots of fun to play. Agree on the quality of pickups in these vs previous MIMs I’ve experienced also. I bought mine expecting to want to swap out the P pickup at least (I generally play with the P pickup soloed) but have been really pleased with it.

    Even by BC GAS standards 115 is a lot of cabs. I’ll get my coat…

    In my experience (am in a bass & drums 2 piece myself) the sub n up is the best option for the upper octave at not much cost. The Mooer Tender is decent too. The T-Rex Quint is another, albeit slightly pricier, option and you can dial a fifth above in on that simultaneously too. Useful for this kind of thing. And, as others have said, an ABY or LS-2 before it to split the signal plus a drive of your choice and you’ll be in the general ballpark.

    Learned to play with fingers 30 years ago, couldn’t take to a pick so never used one. Started playing in a bass/drums two piece a couple of years ago and fingerstyle wasn’t sounding right. Shifted to a pick and from long scale to short scale at the same time.

    Jeez, didn’t know this was a thing! Thanks a million!

    I love it when I see Sandman/Morphine mentioned anywhere. They’ll always be criminally underrated and unknown by so many. Great work!
  23. mr4stringz
    Different strokes and all that, but as I never managed to gel with fivers I’ve had one 4 string tuned BEAD for 20 years or so. All depends on how much you use the G when playing the stoner/doom stuff of course. Hell, if nowt else it’s a great reason to buy another bass! 🤣
  24. mr4stringz
    Not yet, though I do know that they really need to be making them in the tacky silver metalflake they used to use on the long scale.

    Strap yourself in for a likely detailed and informative response! Ace company. I love my Two10.
