Been around for a couple of decades now. You cant do fretless slides on that system. It doesnt sound too much like a real fretless. This other one is far better .. a fretted and fretless in one bass. Dont think they're available anymore though - or maybe they are.

Blimey. I nearly understood all that

I thought James Ferguson was very scincere. And as for the shop, i've bought items from them and had no issues with any of it. Accessories rather than guitars. I'd not let this deter me from buying in the future.

For sure, cant possibly say that they're not a good sounding bass. The mismatching body tops is just cosmetic, and might not bother most people

Thats looking better, but i found more than one bass with mismatching tops

Mottle - what is it ? If its a headphone amp, why all the jack sockets and op amp switches ? I'm a bit green on these sort of things

I checked their website and had a look at some in detail. If this is the level of their tops, then they need to rethink . I've seen better 2 piece matching on basses half the price

Just give them a quick shave. Shouldnt be a problem in any case

You know what it does ?? !!!

Lisa Tarbuck is a hoot. She can have the top off my egg any day

Now I'm a union man Amazed at what I am I say what I think That the company stinks Yes I'm a union man.

Not. sure what, all the fuss ; is about

Brand X at Milton Keynes. Would have been yesterday, had this current manure not hit the fan.

Wait for 110 years and you'll find out. No spoilers please

Sorry - haven't got time to post, cos supper's ready

Joan is sheer class. The first album was a killer, and i still own a copy, though now on CD. A treasure in my music armoury for over 35 years. Great band too Love the tone of that BC Rich through his Acoustic 370 rig, especially on the Show Some Emotion track

Yup, the shock with TE is that they understate the wattage, then everyone gets a surprise when that lowly 150 watts sounds like 500. ( or whatever ) I love myths

You wont be a virgin forever so we'll be expecting some gratuitous sax at some point. Dont give up

I thought the strings on such extreme short scales were normal tension, but tuned an octave higher I think some have used either an octave down pedal, but turning off the original signal leaving the tuning as standard E to A. Possibly a pitch pedal as an alternative

Yeah, what a bar steward

Use the neck pickup

It does seem that other couriers are doing ok. I ordered an amp from Thomann on the 19th and it was here yesterday

Re. the original pickup. Both pups in my SB900 were quite dodgy. When throwing the switches ( i have 2 pickups ) the drop in volume was so bad, it was unplayable. The volume drop was only on the D and G strings, weirdly. So i tried Rautia and sent an email, but the cost of £ to euro was exortionate .. paypal and bank wanted about £30, so i asked if he would go through Transferwise, but he wouldnt, which was strange because they're a reputable company. Used them before. He also quoted me a long delay, (2 months ) so i tried Aaron Armstrong here in the UK, and he built 2 pickups for me to original spec, and had them delivered to me in a week.

What ATsampson said Just looked at the soldering in detail and its very messy in places
