[quote name='Andyjr1515' timestamp='1485623987' post='3225423'] As my wife would say, "NOW look at what you've done!" Sounds a great project - give a shout if you want any hints or tips (or look at the various threads and if you do it the opposite way to me, it will probably work out much better ) Or as my boss once said, "We've achieved a lot, in spite of your help, Andy." [/quote] Look at what weve caused Andy

I remember a bloke asking us if we could do any Lionel Ritchie after hearing an hour of indie and punk rock.

[quote name='TheGreek' timestamp='1485690378' post='3225796'] Black hardware complements the scratchplate - love the limited palate. The grain looks great... Another Andyjr1515 masterpiece.. [/quote] But unlike all the other ones, this ones mine

IIRC the song that got the biggest reaction from the last band was Maggie May, followed by Pinball Wizard.

Youre making me well up Andy. Superb

Its looking so good Andy, fantastic

Come Around Sundown

I do like the Weeknd, but for every great somg he releases I feel theres 1 or two not so great ones. I Feel It Coming is a great song though.

oooh thats pretty. I went to play some of the Ibanez 2017 range today and left with a Squier 50s P bass (of course on accident). Happy NBD to us both sir.

Andyjr1515 would probably sort you out... @andyjr1515

I played one of these today. Theyre fantastic things. Im not one for more than 4 strings, fretless basses, etc. But this was really nice. I found that, due to physical frets being there the fretless side was much easier to gauge as to where the frets really would be on the fretless side, if that makes sense. Oh and a bit of chorus thrown in and it sounded phenomenal through the Laney combo they had. Fantastic bit of kit if its your jam.

Well its bound to be good methinks. Another one to the GAS list, a GAS list thats already 9 deep...

Red was definitely a good choice. Superb

love it

Pretty much anything by the Smiths. I really, really, don't see the fascination of Morrissey sounding asleep or p*ssed (or both at the same time) and murmuring utter nonsense into a microphone

Bought a Seymour Duncan P bass pickup from John, speedy and easy transaction, deal with confidence.

[quote name='kodiakblair' timestamp='1484599658' post='3216747'] Had the PB-50 for a few years now. Great bass ,ended up buying 2 of them One with TI's and one with Hot Wire tapes. There was a good thread by discreet last year on them. Pretty certain there's a soundcloud link to my pal Claudios' A/B between the stock Wilkinson and a Duncan in the post. Fighting weight on my two is about 8.5lb with luggage scales from the £1shop [/quote] Decent weight then, just furthering my GAS. Itd be interesting to hear that A/B if you have a link...

I for one love how active EQs can quickly alter the sound of the bass on the fly and offer versatility to the sound. That being said, I do a lot of my toneshaping on the amp or via pedals, and I dont like having to change batteries (not that its hard or takes long, but its just annoying when the batteries fade midway through a session)

[quote name='Ghost Rider' timestamp='1484591193' post='3216610'] [size=4]I got one delivered today. Just had a quick play & for the money sounds/plays pretty good out the box. The pickup is worth about £25 on its own & its comes with [color=#000000][font=sans-serif]Daddario strings so it seems great value so far. I'll update this if I have anymore info but I found the online reviews pretty helpful. [/font][/color][/size] [/quote] The weight is the main thing putting me off, my HB Jazz was far too heavy, so just interested in weight...

Out of interest, has anyone tried a Harley Benton PB50? Tempted to pick one up and give this whole 50s P bass thing a go.

Its strange to see how different and pale it looks without the varnish. Cant wait to see it with the veneer on now though...

Interesting watch. Did nothing to curb my '50s P Bass GAS like, but good nonetheless.
