  1. Thought you were gonna post a pic of you from your early days when I first read that 😂
  2. I really like his playing on this cover of Running up that hill by Kate Bush - loads better than plodding along on C for 4 mins! There's also a vid of him and Ian from SBL talking through it that is worth a watch.
  3. Congrats on the new bass! I loved my classic pro and it's the only bass I regret selling. Those pups are just the epitome of a Gibson bass tone - mean and massive with a dark growl that'll put hair on your ball sack. Love em. That purple vintage pro is gorgeous too, what a fine flock you have there!
  4. Love everything about it. But with car insurance renewal coming up, it's a bit out of my budget!
  5. Would something like these help you see the pedal board better? https://www.gear4music.com/orchestral/accessories/music-stands/lights
  6. Andertons has them as being in stock on July 7th........not that I'm longingly looking at the Bristol Fog finish and thinking about selling a bass to make room or anything..........
  7. As a newb to Spector this could be a silly question, but here goes... Why do a lot of 4 string models come with PJ pups and then you get to the 5 string of the same model and they have humbuckers?
  8. I was asking a similar sort of thing in another thread recently and the general consensus seemed to be, if you want that Spector sound then a Pulse is a good mixture of price point/tone/quality. Especially if you whack a Haz preamp clone in it. I'm not sure what the differences are between the I and II apart from the finish and QMT though. And no idea if it's worth paying extra for the Euro.
  9. That does look gorgeous, really like the finish on it. Aaaand I'll be down in Gunnislake visiting Chris over the summer...... I think I've got a Pulse on my brain now though, unless having a go on your Warwick changes my mind!
  10. You don't see much MIJ G&L gear, unfortunately. I saw an ASAT last year and was gutted to miss out on it.
  11. 100% agree that ultra violet is the correct colour for a Pulse! Yeah, but maybe its that cheap because they forgot to include the headstock. How much are they to pick up as an aftermarket accessory? They do look cool, but I'm not sure I'm ready for headless just yet!
  12. Ah, I thought only the Warwick and the Zon survived your cull! That sound like a plan, lemme know what biscuits you want and lets sort a date 😃 I almost gave you a shout about the Cort after you raving about it, then I saw in the classifieds that you moved it on and it has since changed hands again.
  13. Ah, I think you answered my question as I was typing it! If a Pulse II is the sweet spot for best value/most spector sounding out of the non US models then I'll keep an eye out. What's the difference between the Pulse I and II? They both look to have the same pups, pre amp and woods for the body, neck and fingerboard. Is it just the finish and QM top? That does look pretty - have added it to the list!
  14. I've seen that Spector video loads and would be lying if I said it's not partially responsible for said GAS attack! The only issue is I'm not sure how close the Spectors within my budget will sound to the full fat USA ones. So, I guess my question to any Spector aficionados is - what's the model to look out for within my budget that sounds the best/most like the US ones?
  15. Very true, the problem is I have no idea where to start! Thanks for those suggestions, I'll check them out 😃
