    Probably my favourite bass tone to date, but what if it were fretless??? [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-K-ruzc0_7E"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-K-ruzc0_7E[/url]

    The main thing I look for when buying a precision is an alder body, these days I think the QC of most guitars is good! But i've owned basswood/sen ash precisions and they just don't do it.
  6. Schnozzalee
    Your right, you can get them from Maplins for 50p lol! Look lovely but change those damn strings so it looks tasteful

    [quote name='Doctor J' post='1196486' date='Apr 12 2011, 08:12 AM']Lucky for me I don't have the money for this. Mega guitar, good luck with the sale.[/quote] Thanks Doctor J , they are serious guitars indeed contrary to the glam-rock graphic lol. Theres something wonderful about making a simple guitar/bass of custom quality and then just slapping some aggressively high output pickups in it - probably why Sadowsky have done so well for themselves This guitar resonates beautifully even without plugging it in! And its like playing air guitar its so light I'm considering Ebay as they're pretty collectable too. German Musik Schmidt Star is the only one left, one was sold from Poole UK and the other three were in the US Music Zoo.

    That looks awful, are you all thinking of the money to be made if you restore it or something? Sometimes vintage instruments are just a write off for me.

    I think a Fresh New Thread is needed just to neaten it up . I wish I had the money to collect your Blue and Gold (Steve Harris) paisley basses (although I'd doubt you'd sell the 2nd!), then get the Pink one from Jojo if she still has it - My three-guitar rack would look VERY purdy indeed

    I like the look of the Red one

    Whenever I lose my enjoyment in playing bass I tend to resort to this video time and again as it reminds me of how determined I was to learn when I first began...plus the kids on fiiighyaaah!! [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C-rVt-RDIzA&feature=related"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C-rVt-RDIzA...feature=related[/url] Just wondering whats your favourite (1!!) Youtube Bass video...

    ...Couple o slappers gettin' about

    Now I've restrung it with the Ernie Ball slinkys and played them in the guitars strangely giving me a more Gretsch-esque tone but I'd strongly recommend Dean Markley 10's for the 'bassier' ES-335 sound I was getting before.

    The ONLY Metallica song I like, I have all the CDs and I can't bear to listen to them lol. Yours were the first Bass Books I ever bought and learnt from so always interested to see your vids! I thoroughly enjoyed this but the Simpsons theme tune is still my fave . I just really love the warmer woody GB tone.
  16. Schnozzalee
    Keep hold of original guard and wrap it safely and store it somewhere and replace it with the new one. Lurvely looking bass though!

    [quote name='pantherairsoft' post='1194076' date='Apr 9 2011, 09:03 PM']I actually like the Warwick. A little different, but not in an awful Adam Clayton custom way. Kinda a Warwick/Fender Hybrid. I do prefer his Fender, but if I'm honest I prefer his old Aria Signature models even more - [url="http://www.thebassgallery.com/product_details.cfm?ID=1768&type=Bass%20Guitar"]http://www.thebassgallery.com/product_deta...e=Bass%20Guitar[/url][/quote] Agree, the Aria's look great - the Warwick just looks like it was inspired by bad primary school bubble writing (if that even makes sense )
  18. Schnozzalee
    That Warwick looks gash lol, I think the Fender looked better - I'd never buy a signature bass anyway, don't like the idea of having someone elses name on my bass other than the brand.
  19. Schnozzalee
    This is the only one I don't like, I love your Dingwalls and the Fiesta red/ Pearl precision but I think i prefer the Placid Blue finish on these with chrome covers. I don't doubt it'll sound fine with the lollar if it resonates! I had a similar finish on a Tokai Hardpuncher n I wasn't keen - just my opinion EDIT: That said...with some shinys
  20. Schnozzalee
    I'd love a Gold top short scale version. I'd buy one of these over a Fender, more punch than a P and more warmth than a J - perfect

    Swear on my life the best value for money

    I started on guitar because my dad made me (he's a classical guitarist) I couldn't get chords at all but could solo no problem, I was going through a thin lizzy phase so I changed to bass which I then played until this year when I switched back to guitar (I learnt chords after a year). I could lay down a groove on a bass but solos eluded me, no inspiration - unless i played fretless. I guess i'm more of a precision/EB3 guy but guitar is sooooo much more interesting when your without a band. That said, on stage i'd play rhyhthm guitar or bass (leccy or acoustic)
