  1. Excellent. Dropped mine of with my tech today, too much relief in the neck and sharp fret ends. I take any purchase, new or second, straight to the tech just because my guitar tech skills are less than zero. The fret ends weren’t dreadful but not smooth.
  2. Welcome @Hypo199
  3. Agreed. My A4 had a small ring system and several small moons.
  4. I have played about three notes on it, but it's certainly slimmer neck compared to the Godin. I'll report back further once it's back from fettling.
  5. Ah yes, the Iceland Air Air Hostesses Netball Team.
  6. Of course. The fretless does sound lovely, but, as someone who is lucky enough to own a bespoke @Jabba_the_gut fretless (which I prefered to my fretless Rob Allen), I am contractually bound to say it doesn't sound Jabba good.
  7. No, there's going to be a sale or two I think to get me down to three basses.
  8. The Sire was £2,180 less than the current price for a new Godin A4 Ultra. The Godin was a lovely sounding bass but it was way too big and heavy for me.
  9. Agreed *joins ass kicking queue*
  10. Yes, I noticed yours had the same string wrapping as mine.
  11. It still had the wrapping around the strings and came from the warehouse rather than the shop so I'm assuming it wasn't ex-display.
  12. I received a brand new bass from Andertons this week, no cosmetic issues but the battery was dead.
  13. Preamp yes, tuner no.
  14. Having had a Godin A4 I shall be doing a direct comparison once it’s set up. It’s certainly several tonnes lighter.
  15. Yes. It seems to be an issue with these particularly, I was expecting it.
  16. Hmmm, needs a set up (nothing drastic, action is a bit high, fret ends need smoothing down) but otherwise I can't find a fault. Perfect service/delivery from Andertons/DHL, I shall let you know how it is after a visit to Guitar Technical Services...
  17. ...that'll teach you to enhance your hampton with a M&S eclair.
  18. In case anyone is puzzled that's a strictly DOI spelling, there.
  19. Hmmm, apologies, it works for me. Try... https://tinytone.co.uk/
