My RBX775 has a fairly thin and shallow neck at the nut, it gets reasonably wider nearer the top frets and isn't too chunky anywhere.
The BB614 I had felt fairly similar to a Precision. -
Stunning.
One hell of a piece of maple.. when we get soundclips ? -
I got my Spector Q6 Pro from SoundControl on interest free finance. Paid it off on time and all was well - £330 in total.
If I hadn't have paid it within the 12 months then it would have automatically begun a 3 year plan at about 30% APR that would have made the bass cost around £600.
Be aware. -
The bridge cover certainly isn't something I'd expect to see on the V940..
As long as you like it . -
Headphone amp is a must - the walls are pretty thin.
-
Spector Q6 Pro. I sold it because I wasn't advanced enough to make use of the higher strings, I feel now I would.
Only thing that doesn't maks me feel better is that I got what I paid for it when I sold it. -
I played a Euro 4 Zebrano the other day. Felt very nice - sound wasn't my thing but other than that a very nice bass.
Very well put together and I think good value (compared to US Fender / Musicman / Warwick). -
Stringbusters once sent me a 5 string set when i'd ordered a 6. When I rang to point out the mistake they did send the correct set immediately and came the next day, along with an SAE to send back the 5 set.
Stringsdirect have always been 100%, although a little pricer on D'Addarios (which I use). -

I played a Buzzard LTD in black today at Birmingham Sound Control, the neck was HUGE, gave me cramp pretty quickly.
Sounded absolutely awesome though.. -
Look forward to this when it hits the shops.

A ballpark price will help .

I used my Ashdown Electric-Blue 180w at my first gig and it wasn't quite up to it (farted a bit).
As soon as I attached a MAG210 cab and ran it at 4ohm - everything was perfect, only have the volume on about 3-4. -
I think it's sometimes possibly disassociating with the problem and blaming someone else as a way to feel better.
For example, you know you have some bills coming up that you can't afford, and that bass/amp hasn't been collecting dust for months but you like the look of it. You don't really want to sell it, so she made you do it !
Personally, my GAS wouldn't know any ends, there's always something else I'd want. I do quite well, the missus will always buy me anything easy to get hold of or cheap (pickguard, strings etc) without asking.
When it comes to basses - I generally try to upgrade via trading rather than buying out right. I swapped a Yamaha BB614 for a Fender Jazz, and an Ibanez Musician for my Stingray, so i'm quite happy with that. -

[quote name='Krysbass' post='46036' date='Aug 15 2007, 08:12 PM']Mine arrived looking like it's been kicked around a sorting-office floor and possibly reversed over by an artic. The spine's been broken in about 5 places and I'm not impressed.[/quote]
Not possible - the sorting offices have been empty. -
I went through a 6 string phase, then realised I had no real need for it. I get on just fine with a 4.

I use D'Addario Prosteels on my RBX775, but I am going for a modern fretless sound. Flatwounds will give you an upright vibe for sure..

These guys (and gals) are also pro's.

Can't beat natural finish with black pickguard .
-
I go for the solid rock category too, occasional melodic fills and a few slapping interludes.
-
W H Smith usually has it - look very carefully, it's always behind something like Oboe Weekly and Sitar Times .

Eww Telesales, i'd rather mop out drains than do that.
Musicman pickguard/scratch plate

Beat me to it !
I got my Stingray plate from there. It was a VERY tight fit at the neck pocket, took some persuasion to go on but it's fine.
