True that.

Basschat is like that, always has been. Folk here are genuinely willing and happy to help, not just with bass related stuff either, the breadth of expertise and experience is truly amazing.

When watching this, I was surprised at how normal (for a value of normal) the Fisher Price knobs looked. That was until Lobster started using them, when they looked quite awkward to use. Shame he didn’t solo the neck pickup, but that’ll come in the full review I guess. No lightweight tuners I see, bit of an oversight IMO.

The assumption that the bass is easy to play and that you're just a failed guitarist.

Hipshot Ultralights arrived and were fitted tout suite. It turns out that the original tuners were surprisingly light and the difference was just 130g lighter. However, it was for the better action in the tuners that they were purchased and that end of the bass is now a slop free zone. I still had to pack the ferrules a bit, but it was all pretty easy. Interestingly enough, although it's now only just over 4ozs lighter (a whole 7.2lbs altogether), because of where the weight has been saved, the feel on the strap is quite markedly different. All smiles at Castle MacEz.

Heresy!

Bought a set of Hipshot tuners from Chris. Great comms and fast despatch, all you could want from a BC transaction.

Not thick, not super thin either, a comfortable handful, if that actually means anything. Fender describe it as a C.
