Machines

I don't usually like Rics but that black/chrome affair has me all giddy.

I don't think they're any substitute for any of the models it tries to emulate. However if you're a recording artist and need lots of tones in one piece of wood (and silicon chips) then it's unbeatable.

Higher Ground funks it up for me - can't resist it.

I stack my MAG210 vertically and have the shallower EB12 combo on top. I couldn't have it the other way round as i'd experience the same problem as bobpalt.

I found my Stingray a bit difficult to adapt to at first having no neck pickup, all ok now I'm used to it.

I defretted my Yamaha RBX775 as it was being underused. Sounds great - just wish I could do it justice.

Argh ! Don't trust anyone but yourself with your gear - it isn't worth the hassle.

Just got it - he played Higher Ground live at the clinic last year - I'm so glad it's on the album. Has a few tracks I don't think i'll listen to twice, but most are utterly fantastic.

Yep I agree with the above on PMT. Dave Sheriff is very knowledgeable and always happy to help you no matter what your budget.

Oh wait... I moderate that forum and should have spotted it... :wacko:.

Quite possibly one of the greatest bass moments, ever.

I find 4's the least 'effort' to slap on. Have had a 5/6 string too - could be done but found I had to concentrate alot more.

Yeah it works well and looks snazzy. Although I would like to complain about the fingerprint/marks on the left of the pictured Jazz

Super video - makes it look so effortless. Congratulations on the endorsement .

This week: Marcus Miller Jazz (a reoccuring GAS item since I started playing bass) Ibanez BTB555 Ashdown ABM500 Ashdown MAG115

Looks a bit tatty ! I'd want a discount for all those scratches.

I find BGM to be a fantastic read, albeit a little short. This is probably more quality over quantity however - which cannot be criticised. The reviews I find do tend to air towards higher end gear - then again I don't get every issue and might be missing the budget reviews. The interviews are superb - some top names have been in there and have always been a great insight.
