Machines

Way beyond my price bracket - but nice to see some stuff opened up from the US market.

I'll be seeing it in November hopefully .

Great review and what a lovely looking bass.. Has my Spector GAS rekindled :ph34r:.

No ATK's though - when I spoke to Dave Sheriff he knew nothing about them.

GAK have the ATK700 - but only because I asked them about it. I think thomann is your best bet.

I think my Stingray has a slight (and only slight) deadspot on 6th fret G - not a note I hit too often thankfully.

Won't be able to make this i'm afraid - have fun though chaps.

Yep £9.50 PH is certainly not to be snubbed. Take advantage of it and get yourself some gear to last.

It appears to be mods only - certainly something to change. I'll set it visible.

Have listened to it a few times now - it's similar in feel to Octavarium, i'm sure it'll grow on me .

I think every bass i've had has had a deadspot to some degree of severity. It's inevitable..

The Sandberg Basic I tried felt quite similar to a Stingray - certainly has the same specs. I rate them highly..

I have some samples.. will upload later if I remember :wacko:.

Flatwounds all the way - D'Addario Chromes are my personal recommendation.

Like this, right ? [url="http://www.stringsandthings.co.uk/spec_sray4_2pu.htm"]http://www.stringsandthings.co.uk/spec_sray4_2pu.htm[/url] They're available as H/HS/HH - you'd need to order one through a dealer.

Sorry, only ped gets to see my tongue nowadays.

[b]John Myung[/b] - Fantastic chops and very modest with it - compliments Dream Theater wonderfully. [b]Steve Harris[/b] - Does all it needs to make the songs sound great, dosn't go over the top. [b]Marcus Miller[/b] - Amazing groover and all around down-to-earth chap, saw him live and he blew me away. [b]Trip Wamsley[/b] - Completely under-rated solo bassist who would put a few famous names to shame, worth checking out. [b]Jason Newstead[/b] - Made me want to play bass, just enjoys(ed) what he did and wasn't fussed about being flashy.

This pic looks a bit better than the vid. [attachment=469:DSC00808.JPG]

You could hear it !?!?

Hah - it was the encore song and I'd got quite bored of it by that point.. 7 mins.. pffft

Only ordered from them once - they are never in a rush.. The orders go to napper in Manchester - he then gets the store in London to package them up and send them off.

Nice gear line up - get some pics up in Bass Porn .
