  1. Surely a mistype, it was the ‘50s (original & ’57 P Basses, Telecaster and Strat all had all maple necks).
  2. I find that confusing too. If the pickup is in the same position, it won’t be a million miles away tonally IMO.
  3. Can’t find the ‘Stang-alike on the HB or Thomann sites anymore
  4. I listened to Pino on Gary Numan's, I Assassin, because I'm a massive Pino fan. Prior to this album, Numan had used Mick Karn. On I Assassin, Pino sounds very much like Mick. As that album was pre Pino's more widespread notoriety via Paul Young's No Parlez, I wonder if Mick was an influence on the blossoming Pino?
  5. I loved that shop, the guys were so welcoming and not typical of the other shops in that area. I was sad to see it go so quickly.
  6. Wild is the Wind - Bowie
  7. I think so, even though it's missing the preamp (easily sorted with some eq if you really want that full on zing).
  8. Sorry,
  9. There’s one for sale here, might be worth asking the seller.
  10. Fnarr, fnarr!
  11. It’s like it was meant to. Nice one.
  12. Had to do this with my most recent bass. A PITA, to be sure but, once done, shouldn’t need doing again.
  13. Quality work!
  14. Wings Of A Dove - Madness
  15. Plenty of skinny stringed players here, who have seen the light. Nice.
  16. Once more.
  17. Yes. I shielded my JMJ Mustang from the pickup rout, through to the control cavity (making sure it connects with the metal control plate) and it is noticeably quieter.
  18. Always use your own bass if possible. PITA? Oh yes, but it’s the best test. Yes, PJB stuff isn’t as cheap as some sadly. I’ve never seen anyone else using them live at gigs I’ve been to, although Pino (with PSP) and Kyle Eastwood are among their most prominent list of users.
  19. The problem isn’t always the speaker either, but the cabinet it’s house in. I know it’s not always practical, or even possible, but trying out combos beforehand, preferably side by side, is the best way forward. FWIW I use Phil Jones rigs for both EB and EUB, which feature multiple 5” speakers (as alluded to by @Beedster above) and, IMO, sound great.
