Liked and subscribed to your channel. If you having anything for my current ability level that would be awesome... Something around 20bpm would be great 😜😭

Sounds like they have a pretty Pro worship team of they are playing to clicks (needing IEM if guess) and preferring no sheet music or chord charts on stage.

Lovely looking instrument, I love the anodised pickguard. 👌

I think in general Thomann do a sterling job, I bought a Squire CV Mustang from them... QC was awful fretboard was damaged. I took photos and they processed the return proving me with shipping labels etc and it was returned to them at no cost to me. Bit different I guess as the product was clear not up to standard. If I bought something that I didn't use because my needs had changed.. well that's my responsibility. Sometimes things don't ways work out and for those times you just have to take it on the chin. Advertise it on this forum, maybe someone will buy it from you. Thomann have always been extremely fair in their dealings and their customer service is Excellent. I just checked Andertons returns policy and if the item is not faulty you have to pay return postage costs and they are UK based!

"Musikhaus Thomann regrets that it is unable to cover the shipping costs for return shipments from foreign countries as part of the 30-day money back guarantee."

Yea it was joke... I was exaggerating on their propensity for litigation. Not a huge fan of their aesthetic either and I get the impression the necks are as thin as a broomstick!

Exactly

Agreed! Do you know why you never see any Rickenbackers advertised here?

Only because we fear a cease and desist notice.

I love the Bongo Shap and Big Al! 🤷‍♂️

For me Thomann takes around 3-4 working days to ship to France. However there is often a day or two between me placing the order and it being dispatched.

Absolutely, as well as it's ease and range of adjustment.

By the time you've added some compression and other effects... I would imagine any difference would be completely lost.

... I agree it would be a nice little side project, maybe an engineering student out there could even make a undergrad project out of..

I added a high mass bridge for aesthetic reasons, as with the mirror pickguard... it was my little nod to Phil Lynotts P-Bass.

That would be interesting... although I don't have a string through bass at the moment. I did write a short script to do just this though.

I'm sure I actually looked at this way back, but I will double check if they are back to front or not.... I am actually wondering to try a set of chrome tuners from HB, perhaps they are harder material, would also match the highmass bridge.

Hi Stew, I've not been having a good time with the tuners on this bass, two of the gears got chewed up very quickly, Thomann sent me two replacements no hassle. However when I changed the strings after installing the new bridge, again the gears started to get chewed up and causing the tension to slip. I managed to tune up but I don't think they will last long now. I even lubricated them a little with some Vaseline as suggested a while back, but it seems the metal that the gear is made from is just way too soft for it's intended purpose.

Always wear protection.

You ben recommending this bass to folks? its great for the price and a good modding platform, if that ya thing.

Just fitted fender high mass bridge... Needs a proper setting up.. strings are a bit clanky. I just need some decent chrome tuners now... The HB ones are awful, anyone got advice for direct replacements?

zero effort pickguard

Looks like the same guy that made Princes basses and guitars.
