Pea Turgh

Weirdly, I think it looks alright. And I don’t usually like relics. Or Warwicks. But I’d never spend 5k on any bass!

Maybe it just needs running in?

Get him a box of wine and help him out!

I did take the badge off and paint the metal horn cover black. Looks nice! Will do the grille black too this weekend.

Peeps - I can vouch for this unit - I bought the first one and the Beyma’s are booming!

Loving this - what a find!

The for sale sections here are ace - could’ve saved myself a packet doing my homework then shopping here!

Cab-wise I just bought one of two Peavey cabs from Fleabag on ‘ere that he’d upgraded the drivers with Beyma’s. 2x10, 400w @ 4 ohms.

Im yet to use it in anger, but the sound I’m getting in the house is very promising. £105 delivered!

Might be a good cheap yet highly effective option for you.

I’ve never before wanted a modern looking, and/or 6 string bass. However; if my lotto ticket is a winner I’m getting one of these! It’s beautiful.

I bought one peeps!  Really liking the Beyma’s!

Did anyone else click onto this thread hoping that the "Japan Confusion" might be an exciting new design by Fender?

Yes!

From what I understand, Behringer have been known to exaggerate wattage in the past!

I was just trying to think “when have I ever played a stage that dark?!” 

I remembered then - about 20 years ago playing a pub gig with a rock band, ALL the power goes out (amp too, so still no use for LEDs!).

The drummer being an entertainer through and through starts playing and singing at the top of his voice We Will Rock You by Queen. The whole pub joined in. Excellent.

Chocolate thunder?!!!! 🤣🤣🤣

Let’s hope he’s not a Basschat member then... awkward!

 I really wanted LEDs in the 90’s.

Omg that’s fantastic! That neck wood grain!

Hi I’ve got a similar one it’s got the bullet truss rod the bound fingerboard     vintage pickups , bridge, and tuners    The only difference between this and my other jazz basses is the neck profile it’s very slightly deeper but feels great    and sounds really good with flatwound strings 

That’s a nice wall!

I’ll be the controversial one, then!

As much as I love Fenders, sometimes I think the tuners look stupid. There; I said it!

A full set of “T” (or are they called “Y”?) shaped ones would look fine, but if the rest of the hardware is that dark chrome I’d look for replacements in that colour.

No, it got swapped out for oak at the top of page 4

I read it but I missed it!  Must be time to sleep.

I’d the polycarbonate still there then Jim? I can’t tell from the last pic.

Another quiet late shift in work, another boomer slammer of a bass put together on the whatsitminator. There are sooo many things I’d be obliged to spend £1600 on if I had spare, but this is deffo on the lottery list. The neck is roasted too.

Corrr! That’s gonna be ace!

Keep the P - the Streamer is your sort of jazz?  I’m not that familiar with Warwicks though, so happy to be corrected.

Yeah. I know it’s pedantry of the highest order - but I paid more to get the thing I wanted and got the nearest thing but.

some places in the US have pictures of the actual product in their listing so I might order and take the hit on customs charges.

Probably a warehouse picker thought they just had a new colour pack.

it works the other way too - I ordered one cymbal stand online, but what arrived was one... box of six cymbal stands!

Quite tempted to sell one of my One10s to free up some cash then get this! Just don’t think I’ll be able to organize myself quick enough, especially since you added postage!

I really should have checked the for sale section before buying a whole new set up - I’d have had change for a few PB-50’s!
