At present the Squier, happy to install the EMG Geezer for a sale 👍 -
Trades......? -
No 👍

Really enjoyed that 👍 -
Daion make (made) very good instruments 👍 -
Thanks Ped, do you think the oils are all much of a muchness, I appear to have Osmo floor oil, worktop oil, and furniture oil (as well as some decking oil but I suspect that'll not be the best bet)?
-
@ped do you know which variant of Osmo Oil was used? I'm keen to oil a couple of my necks and have a few tins os Osmo lying around the place 👍

On fretted I tend to use the G a lot when I'm playing flats where I find the tone quite full, less so with rounds. On FL I use the G a lot
-
Nothing like a nice bit of Tiger Stripe Ebony, especially when luthiered by Warmoth 👍 -
I like a played-in wooden neck with either very worn nitro or oil finish. If someone could make me a graphite neck with that feel I’d be very happy 👍
-
I think we’re starting to realise the reverse, the expensive stuff ain’t what it’s cracked up to be 👍
-
Sadly that was my experience with Bass Bros also, I suspect their web email thingy doesn't do its job very well, which these days is pretty risky for the business
-
I remember one of my more knowledgable musician mates saying of my TRB6 ".....the sort of bass played by NYC session musicians". That pretty much says it all 👍
-
Get it, I've owned a few Status and Modulus necks/basses, and for my own reasons I still prefer wooden necks, but for me it's more about feel than performance, graphite is quantitatively better IME And yes this is a rather special instrument 👍
-
In the case of a Status neck, improved. Note to note and string to string balance are pretty much perfect, stability and therefore playability significantly improved over all but the absolute best necks (luthier/top-end Warmoth, FCS), and there's a lovely layer of harmonic content that IME you only get from graphite, and good graphite at that (there is bad graphite, rhymes with roses....)
