[quote]have Markbass even been going long enough to haven a proven history?[/quote] Where have you been hiding away for the past few years?
-
There will be others, might just mean a wait? Rather nice Celinder up too. Peter -
Sorry to hear your news CK. Maybe its not all bad if you won't have to live in Peterborough any more? Peter -
There's a very nice 91 NT Thumb on here that switches to passive. Pre 93 Warwicks are quite something and it would fit your bill and be much higher quality than your Fender in my biased opiniopn [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=40060"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=40060[/url] Peter

That would be SAD if that happens I expect you'd say OW as you raised your eyes SKYwards! Okay I'm going

I think you are right Jon and I have plans I'll say no more at this point but my search for a fretless Wal has ceased methinks. Peter -
As a Spector Euro owner myself and as the geezer what fitted the pre-amp I'd just like to echo what's been said and more. The two minor issues mentioned by Alan really are minor and this is truly a VAS. A what? A Value Added Spector. The bass has retained all the classic Spector balls and has gained depth and versatility. If I was a 5 string player I wouldn't hesitate to jump at it, and yes my 4 now has an ACG02 fitted as well Peter

What they said +100

With good reason, the newest, the ACG is my 'perfect' bass. It fits me like it was made for me and it was. It just seems easier to play than anything else and sounds quite superb. I can honestly say they are all great basses. Peter

Finally the beast and the beauty. RKS 5 string and my Harlot ACG. It's amazing how writing an essay is sure to make you procrastinate.

Nearly there Warmoth/Darkstar/ACG pre and Spector Euro LX also ACG'd

Peavey T-40 and Fretless jazz with Badass II, Warmoth neck and ACG pre amp.

Half way with my 90 Thumb NT and Bass Collection
-
Next up a pair of Yamahas TRB4P (MkI) and my BB1500A
-
I've finally reached a happy number of basses. Down from 20 to 12. I thought I'd just take a break from essay writing to photo them all. First off from L to R Rickenbacker C64S 4001 Macca bass with reversed headstock and tuners. Next my CS4001 Chris Squire.

Yo! and welcome. Whereabouts in Essex? We've a few Essex folk about, although I live bleedin' miles away nowadays. Peter
-
Yep bassists that can do no wrong suggest to me bassists that don't upset anyone. That can be done by just doing the minumum. Me? I'd rather cause some upset, like Les Claypool. I agree that Phil Lynott wasn't a great bass player. A good front man maybe.

New to me, never heard anything negative about Mick Karn. Peter
-
Some great idea coming out, much appreciated. Peter

Mick Karn would be a start! Bringing a Wal into the 21st century Pedro
-
What do you reckon? What makes for a good fretless bass? Humbuckers/single coils, mahogany? piezo? What would you go for if you were having your dream fretless made? Suggestions on the back of a saucy postcard please. Pierre

[quote]until I noticed the E string had been wound on the opposite way.[/quote] I have one bass with reverse tuners (Ric C64S) and it confuses the hell outta me Every Bass Collection I've bought (3) has be incorrectly wound on one or two strings. Peter

Hehe, that's what I get for making assumptions. 'making an ass out of u and me'. Peter -
Side cuttings pliers where the jaws meet are not ideal. The best cutters are one's where the jaws slide passed each other. or
