    Brilliant

    I imagine the truth is that he started trying to have a say in things, been the downfall of many a non-original member, no matter how talented or long-standing

    Very sad 😕

    He’s the Talented Mr Ripley of guitar, no taste, no creativity, no morals, just a talent for mimicry

    I’ve seen worse, I could do that but I would do an average job and probably never play it, it needs better than me 👍

    Nice one @Bilbo 🙏

    Big Mesa boxes are hard to sell these days, I’d have got more had I sold the head on its own 🤔

    You Sir, are among friends, and are eminently qualified for membership of this forum 👍

    M6 unless I’m going mad 😀

    Which makes a lot of sense 👍

    EMG use something similar, allowing PUPS to plug into circuits. In relation to soldering etc I have no problem with the circuit/loom end of things, where I have had issue in the past is where the solder joint on the PUP itself has worked its way loose (or has been poorly manufactured, which for whatever reason I have found to be especially problematic on Precision PUPS), and the EMG approach seems to be a pretty decent way around this. Funnily enough John @KiOgon I think I owe you a PM on this subject that we had started discussing before the PM system fell apart a month or so back, I was going to ask whether you would be able to modify some PUPs for me to enable me to make them more anatomically similar to the EMGs, I'll check and get back to you (I need a couple of new circuits also) 👍

    Classy amp, despite its deceptive simplicity, while it's bloody versatile it's also very hard to make it sound anything other than bloody good. I had the combo version that - due to classic Mesa over-engineering of the cab - weighed slightly more than Luxembourg, but I still chose it over my smaller Mesa units because it did sound rather lovely. Certainly a unit that justifies the 'Engineering' in the title 👍

    Only if the P stood for passive stingray. Close (ish) but not that close 🤔

    Not used them but neither would I without a whole lot more than three reviews

    As the owner of four (yes you read that correctly) maple board fretless basses, there is a unique tone to the combination of a maple board and a Precision PUP that once heard is hard to let go of. Before owning one I'd always assumed that it would be a somewhat polite combination compared with, for example an ebony board, but quite the opposite, growly, rich, and articulate, If I didn't already have four etc......

    There I was, GAS-free, minding my own business, not a care in the World, and then this…… 🧐

    Which probably means it's got better QC than the US models..... That really is a fine looking instrument 👍

    If you have a V4B in your studio you don’t need this unless you’re looking for a pretty subtle variation on the same thing albeit a bit louder. Like the V4B this stays clean a lot longer than the PF20/PF50, and while this is rated at 200w against the V4B’s 100, in real terms there’s not a lot in it 👍

    Very interesting video, thank you Sean and Tony, it's encouraged me to go ahead, I'll update..........
  20. Beedster
    This is one of those basses, the moment it sells we all kick ourselves 🤔
  21. Beedster
    Thanks guys, @Sean yes I can see the move towards the neck being a move toward a certain (bassier) tone but had also heard a lot of comments about P/PUPs pretty much only working in that rather special place that Leo put the all those years ago - while a lot of basses have PUPs closer to the neck, I don't see many using a Precision PUP in that location hence the question (in short is the P/PUP unsuited to being used in the neck position). @Hellzero that is going to be an interesting read and listen, many thanks for posting 👍

    Wonder if a ‘Basses you didn’t regret selling’ thread might be more entertaining 🤔
  23. Beedster
    Neck alone is worth the asking price 👍
  24. Beedster
    I might just buy that domain 😁
  25. Beedster
    Agreed, especially re venues closing 😕
