Seen him play it, it's BEASTLY!!

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]

I'm jealous BUT I reckon its probably going to weigh a tonne so time to invest in a nice wide strap!

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

Oh you guys!! Hahaha this is my favourite thread for a while

[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.

Momma always said, "If you haven't got anything nice to say, don't say anything at all"...so i'll shush *zips mouth*

Its an ESP/Ltd, can't remember the model name but Mike Duda from WASP was using one when I caught his pick! EDIT: EC 414FM [url="http://www.espguitars.com/basses/ltd-standard-deluxe/ec-414fm.html"]http://www.espguitars.com/basses/ltd-stand...e/ec-414fm.html[/url] ESP make great guitars, japanese quality . I had a PC-2V, easily as good as an ES335 with Bigsby and only £850. That ^ one's only £600 with a fantastic spec!!

[/quote] I've been interested in these since Kasabian's first TV appearance, they're the only modern band I listen to, although, their newest singles have been less than great . I don't think i'd go for one at that price though, maybe £1600 . I don't actually know what they're worth??
