Buy yourself a G&L.

Very tasteful

Bartolini Soapbars and a Glockenlang Preamp is a wonderful combo - Marleaux used it for ages before swapping to Delano Pickups (not sure why).

Vmaxblues had one of these and he was kind enough to let me try it out while we were trading other things and it is still the best rock bass I've ever played. HNBD!!

I loved my A4 and A6, but I was enticed away after playing a Precision Bass (The Sound in My Head) and later upgrading to a Marleaux Consat. You'll be hard pushed to find something (double soapbar) that will beat them for less than £800.

...But they're the absolute opposite of 'Zing'

From reading the OP I would stick with Roundwounds.

I've had to save Mike Duda's towel a few times and now I've put a fake spider from the Early Learning Centre in it, just in case. Always buy shirts - Especially if they're £20, as that's not much more than something in TK Maxx. I forgot my Judas Priest shirts!! I wish I'd stored them in a suitcase, but I wear them all the time.

Just wanted to see what cool stuff people have got from Gigs etc? I've got... A towel and pick from Mike Duda of WASP A printed canvass signed by Jack Bruce An album signed by Chris Squire ('Fish out of Water) and then T-Shirts from the following - Jethro Tull, Whitesnake, Iron Maiden, Bob Dylan, Jack Bruce and Thunder. So not so remarkable. A friend of mine has Keith Moon's Drumsticks...That's the best I know of. What you got?

Love the Guitar Pickups (particularly the Humbuckers), but the Bass Models don't do it for me - I like more Definition.

+1 ^ Got a chance to meet him at a Cardiff Bass Bash and he was exactly the same in person - Loved his Shuker 5 String P.

How do you find Maru Basses in comparison with your Vintage Fenders? (You can tell I've been away a while - Just found out what a Limelight was a couple of weeks ago)

22 pages about that...

I think the problem with a P/J Bass is the same as a HSS Stratocaster - The pickups don't balance.

At least 21 for me too.

There must be a previous Thread related to this but I can't find it so... What's the best Lightweight Gigging Amp at the moment? I don't mind if it's a combo or a stack and I'm flexible with my budget. When I was last playing around 2010, most were choosing a Genz Benz Streamliner w/ Neodynium Cabs and I want to know what the favourite is now? I play mostly 60s - 90s music and I don't want to go too modern. Please let me know your thoughts.
