As I understand it, there is a degree of hit and miss with Ric QC even today, there is an example on this forum somewhere of an instrument on Ric's stand at a show on which the G -strings was pretty much missing both the PUPs and the neck!

Not sure the B-15 does?

Unless I’m mistaken Harley’s QC is also superior to Ric’s?

Far better of with a Yamaha is true of bikes and basses but it would be a boring World if Yamaha were the only option 👍

One cannot mess with simplicity…. 🤔

Good advice, esp re drummists 👍

Apart from SVT-CL of course 😀

The only option 👍

I used to own one, it was nice, but the PF-50 and fliptop cab get close for around 10% of the price 👍

Three actually

I didn't

I think I'm starting to agree with, um, me

As per the Enfield thread, I've put a lovely MIJ 62RI fretted neck on it and it just works, and I'm about to install a J-Retro and a Badass II. I think I prefer the fretted over fretless. So, in theory I keep the Enfield as my fretted and the Precision as my fretless and all is good with the world 👍 Giving it some serious thought......

Um, like this Luke Just started obvs 👍

Some great stuff in this thread guys, many thanks for the food for thought 🤔

I'm the same, inverse law for me, fewer gigs = bigger rigs. Mesa Carbine M6 weighs marginally more than my car but sounds glorious even if I could get the same volume from a Class D and Barefaced, I still prefer to use the biggun. Would be a PITA if I were gigging every week though

I suspect he's a good example of the role of DNA in the whole thing 👍

No seriously, great post, just how I feel about my band 😀

Hippy

Thought I'd start this thread to examine this stuff in a little more detail

Photos required or it never happened

Flea that is, as far as i'm aware Jonny Marr didn't play Flea Basses live or in the studio

Likewise the Modulus Flea, which he played pretty religiously for a decent length of time, at least on stage

Anyone else notice this? Muct be some form of cognitive dissonance or similar. I have a 2000 maple fretless Precision, a real beauty but to be honest, rarely played and only gigged once. I also have an Enfield Fusion fretless, not a real beauty to my eye, but a great bass. I didn't get on with the Enfield at first, so I listed it for sale about two months back and now play it almost every day. So I decided to withdraw it and list the Precision, and today can't put the bloody Precision down, while I knew I liked it, it now feels like the most amazing bass I've ever owned. OK, the solution is obvious (i can hear you screaming it), keep them both. So, what would you do good people of Basschat?
