I am on (extensive) record about these. There was never any situation I went in to that this did not deliver on. Backline with bonkers drummer and no PA support? No problem. Nice quiet gig but need rich sound anyway? No problem. Like the tone quiet, but disappointed that it all goes to mush when you turn it up? Not here. All the way down to the very bottomest B or A? Here it is. Do I fancy it? Not half. But my ears are shot and I no longer play with backline. Otherwise I would be sitting here telling you how rubbish it is as I planned my trip to pick it up. -
If you run backline, it gets no better.

My turbo is poorly. I now need to make alternative car arrangements. I totally feel your pain. Totally. -
The older I get the more lax I get with reading what is actually there. And proof reading, but will come as no suprise to my followers. Imagine my surprise when I did not hear The Cardigans when I pressed play.

He is not wrong. I have owned RA and JTG basses so am commenting from experience.

ACG did some stuff which was the same vibe.

I used to be obsessive about this sub forum. I have relaxed a bit about it more recently. But it still brings the same emotions up for me. "I did this Then I did this Then this happened Then I did this And then this beautiful bass appeared." How is this even a thing? How can people get wood and turn them into playable instruments? Crazy madness.

I have turned up at a studio and taken out a vintage instrument and the artist's eyes have lit up like a christmas tree. I do not believe I played any better or worse, but the artist felt that they were getting the real deal.

I get the pre CBS thing. I desire one. I have a Jan 5th 66 J. I am fully aware that (bound neck and machine heads notwithstanding) it is to all purposes exactly like a pre CBS one. I like the look of that faded paint, the gloss has gone, it does not need looking after aesthetically. All that stuff is very attractive. I would like a pre CBS because when I was growing up if it was not pre CBS then it was not worth looking at. This is what the cool kids/gatekeepers told me. We all know that is not true, but that narrative has stuck with me. Formative years and all that. Interestingly I have owned 3 Bravewoods. They all scratched exactly the same itches as my 66J does. Of course, YMMV, but for me it triggered the same "Ahhh and Ooooh" responses as my 66. Exactly the same. If only Mr Bravewood would build me a J5 and a P5.

Went to see M'eshell Ndegeocello last night in Ronnie Scott's. Sublime it was.

Lush. I have an Uberhorn and an Uberhorn body Jon made to fit a neck Goodfellow made for me. I heart Uberhorns.
