  1. Agree, if the weight is distributed better across the bass i can sling an 11lb'er, especially if its fender...a 9lb G&L however - feels like lifting an anchor
  2. I'm not racist, just saying I think all white basses look better with black guys playin em, like Bill Buddha Dickens in a suit
  3. I've always wanted something like this, but I wouldn't play it lik the girl in the video - they sound great without effects and chords, especially if you go off on one during a song like Mr Bruce. I wouldn't pay more than £1200 for one and then you have to worry about problems like what amp to use and pedals etc afterwards.
  4. Music Teacher missing in action! Still for sale!
  5. Chris Squire - Silently Falling
  6. Hi Cyrene, its been incorporated into a trade deal i'm doing end of next week but if it doesn't go through you'll be the first to know if your interested.
  7. Oh so thats what those are!! I've spotted these on various guitars.
  8. Seen him play it, it's BEASTLY!!
  9. [quote name='phatkat' post='1369526' date='Sep 11 2011, 04:18 PM']I'm possibly being silly but... whats an EUB?[/quote] Electric Upright Bass
  10. Bargain price, I love it! I like it as it is with the headstock.
  11. I thought he played a black john birch with white poka dots?? I owned a 70's Birch 4001, sounded just like Geezer plugged in but i didn't get along with the high output pickups - very much a pick players bass EDIT: He has the humbug sg one here, Jaydee made a version of it later too: [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oGQyVhB2r8c&feature=fvst"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oGQyVhB2r8c&feature=fvst[/url]
  12. [quote name='Happy Jack' post='1364700' date='Sep 6 2011, 10:02 PM']No love for 'G' then?[/quote] I love G on the E string best
  13. I'm jealous BUT I reckon its probably going to weigh a tonne so time to invest in a nice wide strap!
  14. bump for fenders best finish!
  15. That's beautiful, which it was closer to home so I could come see!!
  16. [quote name='wombatboter' post='1364355' date='Sep 6 2011, 06:06 PM']It performs really well when slapping but it's not a one-trick pony...A lot of sounds are possible and the sustain is great.[/quote] 24 frets on a 32" scale would feel as easy as playing a guitar but not so short that your fingers would trip over themselves! I'd buy one of these for finger style, I think it would be kind to my hand injury also! BUMP!!!
  17. [quote name='Jean-Luc Pickguard' post='1364463' date='Sep 6 2011, 07:18 PM']The ones made by Paddington Bear certainly did as he was always proud of his handiwork when he was sent to Fender Japan on work experience. The marmalade did tend to stain the lacquer though.[/quote]
  18. A Fender Precision with a Jazz nut and vice versa seems like the best innovation but they just don't seem to make it standard
  19. Thats such a nice combo for a jazz, always black plate with maple
  20. Oh you guys!! Hahaha this is my favourite thread for a while
  21. [quote name='Lozz196' post='1360775' date='Sep 3 2011, 11:02 AM']For me, when I had high-mass bridges, the lows seemed to be tighter, the highs more crisp and precise, and the overall sound more hi-fi. I found that the high-mass bridge seemd to take away from the Precision what the Precision is famed for, but really exaggerated all that a Jazz is famed for.[/quote] I really like this response, this is why I refused to buy the 50's 60's classic player stratocasters - vintage fretwire and jumbo frets make a big difference to tone IMHO. No one else really notices these tiny tonal differences but it really frustrates me just as much as fretbuzz. ALSO Badass bridges are so ugly, I hated it when it was on my glam rock bass I may have thought differently if it didn't have 'BADASS' engraved on it for all to see.
  22. It's a '62 precision style neck so its pretty slim at the nut and much more playable than a '57. The machineheads are great quality as is the rest of the hardware on a Sue!
  23. This is such a nice bass
