I’ve seen this a few times and the Alembic custom j , really sounds nice to me , and I don’t know how he got the EBM stingray classic to sound so nice and deep, I never could 🙂
That’s a shame the store is closed , because there’s not many places left now where you can actually try things out, the Romford store is more equipped for studio equipment but they have a good selection of basses and a nice practice room 🙂
When I was looking for a 62 RI jazz, there was only 2 for sale with the spec I wanted, one was in Australia and the other was in Dirk Witte Amsterdam , which I bought with no problems and it arrived 3 days later.
That was a bargain lownote, ☝️ I also have the Ashdown mag head , and the 115 deep cab (on the right) and the markbass ny 115 , which I mix n match, even the mags compressor isn’t bad.
I really only use labella LTF’s , so I know the measurement from ball end to silk , but if I’m buying new strings I try to get the string length specs up to be sure, as I’ve been caught out a few times .
I’ve been in their shop in Romford many times to try basses they are quite a reputable company, but I’ve never bought anything online , I would have thought you will be fine 🙂
This is what I do now, and I find it works really well, I get really obsessive if I can’t nail a bass part , so if I find myself getting frustrated I take a break and come back to it until I’ve got it down 🙂
