Cheers Cam - that ‘77 bass is the nuts!! @AndyTravis that would go well with your brown basses fetish

That looks very very smart buddy - congrats on that - defo a head time head required!

I think the best thing Yammy have done is to make their pick ups standard size - take the template and pop in the pick up you like. Best of all worlds

Nowt

Oh no - it’s a can of worms again - run for the hills!!!!!! In the last week or so Sadowsky and Ashdown are getting planned for such an accusation, is no company safe....?!

@ReaperWas it in the for sale section? If so, go for it if you can, if not, you can always DM the person and suggest if they ever want to part with it, you could be first in line - you never know, may work?!

Creamery get my vote every time - to my ears they did sound better than others when i have compared them

If you search on you tube there are videos out there, Andertons done one, Patrick Hunter as well etc. @Reaper you used to have a 5 string Spector as your avatar - was that just a wish list bass?

Aaaaaaaaaaand what did you like?

We were waiting for you, we can’t have all the fun

Thats why it’s horses for courses - it’s confirmed my Anti Smith Gas

Agree with the Aria, sounded stonking

Yeah seen this before, it’s a nice little few mins of listening. Love that MarloweDK shame I can’t get it to sound like that!

Smarts of something slightly unhinged - would be worse still if ‘they’ liked respective posts....

LB-100 is a corker of a bass Dont get me started on MFD’s

Fender have barely offered anything new for eons - They call it a professional, pro, Elite, journeyman etc. And pretty much Re-hash what they have and say it’s the best range ever - they get meh’s on here but are bought up. I suppose their throwback/bastardised/chimera range was not bad and those Sandblasted finishes were mint - but, there you go....

Aye - good work and a merry Xmas to you both. If you do fancy moving on the Black labels - gimme a nudge!

Good EQ is not just about first harmonics, 2nd, 3rd etc all come into play

Looking forward to hearing your thoughts-think they look pretty good. Any nudges on pick ups, electronics etc?

You actual can’t win here cant win here can you?! These are familiar shapes that people en masse do like and are ergonomic, and have stood the test of time. If they look and sound great, have a high QC control and feel better than a ‘Fender’ at a great price, have great customer service especially with a hub in the U.K. - then is that not a victory for us as consumers? Why not trade an official Mexican Fender knock off for a UK/USA fender knock off? If they designed something different which look like a child drew a melted candle with a chubby crayon, then you may all silently applause, but the likelihood is y’all wouldn’t rush to buy one and support the venture no matter how good it sounds. As an example So much gets discussed how a P sits in the mix, so a company reproduces that bass that a metric tonne of people use, and they get panned for it. The proof is indeed the fit and finish, rolled neck, neck profile, neck and body feel, pick ups, pre-amp etc. Who knows good be a bloody good set of basses or an absolute turkey, but you know what - they look alright, not offensive in the least

A Split coil is still a humbucker, the coils had to be split to differentiate from Seth Lovers humbucker designed earlier and to fit the poles windings in place etc.

Can’t disagree with anything you say, I have nowt against a Warwick basses, quite like the sound and is distinctive for sure. My Bro has a couple and they suit him well. It purely a personal thing, I can’t separate the man from the product, it’s the same reason why I stopped reading some newspapers because of a principle. Anyhow - good will to all folk and all that - enough bad chat!

I fooled myself with that notion for years
