  1. I've noticed the bridge cover for the CV 60s is slightly larger to fit over the Himass bridge. Does anybody have a picture with one fitted? Do they look odd as they are slightly larger.

    The other option is to replace the bridge for the standard vintage. But, I also believe that this is not a straight swap as the 5 screw holes will not not align as the vintage bridge is smaller in width. Does there happen to be a straight replacement for a more vintage looking bridge?

    Thanks

  2. This is a superb MIM bass but I need a work horse that will be used. Unfortunately, I'm not a collector and if a guitar sits idle it has to go.
    Perhaps somebody would be interested in a straight swap for a Classic 50s Precision Bass in Sunburst or at a push Fiesta Red :-)
    I will mention there is a slight dink (1cm, not chipped) on the top hidden edge of the body.
    Would help if you're based in the South. It's actually the same bass shown in my profile pic.

  3. Thanks for that chrismuzz. My other concern was the use of this with an active bass, hence the optional extra of the lead and pouch to attach to your strap so the transmitter is out of the way of the body, which defeats the whole point. Now, I can't notice any problem with noise with the Samson airline when swapping from passive to active, other than the obvious rise in volume output.

  4. Any review updates on this system. I'm looking into one purely because I'm used to the bug transmitter which helps with quick guitar swaps. I'm currently using the Samson Airline 77 which is about 8 years old now and to be honest never sounded that great, too toppy and the compander side effects are excessive.

    The major question is, are these worth the money? At £370-£399 you can buy something £100 cheaper than this of similar quality. Is it worth an extra £100 for me to continue using a transmitter bug system?
