Never played, sounded too bad

I used to own one. It is relatively loud (much louder than the Roland) and very nice sounding. New it was a bit pricey but  is well worth this £220  price IMO.

I'd have prefered  these kind of proportions (it is shorter too). About balance,  the body might be thicker if a little smaller. As it is, it reminds me too much this ugly little Gibson studio's headstock.

Yes.

I think I'd like it better with their usual headstock shape. This looks like a very small headed bird.

Very nice. Is it heavy? (weight-wise)

Spector was sounding  quite criminal too. kinda call 007.

Anyway, If they only clean dirty money selling basses we can expect a great value for low prices.

I prefer soul kitchen. Hmmm well Blues Kitchen is already taken...maybe an opportunity for some light warm and cheap French fries somewhere here 😀

Are you still on your fourth Aggie Agro monsieur Le @totorbass? 

The third, it  is soldered on my board now. (Even more since I have ma mountainking megalith before it,  that I can use as a volume and bass boost  if desired).

Oh yes Soul Food, sorry.

No mention of the EHX soul kitchen? edit Soul Food sorry.

I tried them with a trace elliot stack, SWR Workman combo and a Trace Elliot GP7 1x15 combo. Just couldn't get the bottom end that was instantly available on my 62 reissue Precision and a Status S2 that I also had. In fact every other bass in my collection really. 

I've had  lots of Stingrays, and very few lacked bottom end. More often they can lack body and sound a bit hollow comparing to a PB for example, but this is more about mids than low end IMO.

It is very nice.

"trans-brazilia" sounds like something with  some strings and a long  horn.

What was futuristic is vintage now.

Shedua is (flammed) ovangkol if I ain't wrong? Do you know the weight please?

Though you make sense in a way I don't totally agree:  swapping some bodies and necks on basses I had (Stingrays)  let me hear huge différences that will be still hearable with  active electronics corrections and  lots of effects behind.  Core tone of an instument is a big deal soundwise.

or 864 mm sorry

Sounds like "Orion bass solo" to me. I think Cliff was playing his Aria then?

34" or 364mm  is from the strings saddles to the nut.

34"?

I always believed that fatter strings had a more pronunced  fundamental and less harmonics. It seems I was wrong.

Just a P-bass guy…  Isn't it a song by John Lennon?

What a beauty! Why is it not gone already?

Do you think it would be a "casting error" for a mostly rock/metalhead ? (as I've been told once upon a time, as I was salivating in front of a CR4). I'm usually playing musicmans or PB's.

Nice! Weight, please?
