The catchiest of catchiest tunes - I've only just discovered this lot

Thinking it would be easier to play if it was strung ..45 .60 .80 .100 .80 .60 .45 wouldn't it? I might try it in a 'future project'.

Or perhaps make it into an ambi-dextrous bass that can be flipped - why hasn't Mark Phillips tried this yet? If he strung it EADGDAE it could be done .100 .80 .60 . 45 .60 .80 .100

If you don't want it don't bid on it. If you never wanted it why did you bid on it?

So less scooped with a fatter bottom end apparently? and generally hotter?

Do they go up to 11 too?

How does the (more expensive) Vintage '63 pickup sound in comparison? https://shop.fender.com/en-US/accessories/pickups/pure-vintage-63-precision-bass-pickup/0992241000.html I have 'CustomShop 62' AND 'FenderOriginal' pickups in 2 of my precisions already

I'm 54 Our shows are around 2 hours - often under hot lights - sometimes these days on big stages. If we're not hospitalised we're fit enough

Clearly you've never played an EBMM USA Sterling - 1 1/2" nut

I have used Cakewalk Sonar since release 4 These days it's available for free. https://www.bandlab.com/products/cakewalk

As I remember it it was a fire in a property of which Midnight rented some storage space. It wasn't particularly 'convenient' for us. Cherry Red have the masters now and yes, I believe most of the box set was made from those masters. Glad you enjoyed the album - we do have a new one out since. https://sadloversandgiants.co.uk/product/mission-creep-cd/

I should know this but in 40odd years of bass playing I've only ever changed the strings on 34" basses. When it comes to strings..........are 'medium scale' strings long enough for a 2x2 32" scale or will I need 'long scale' ? Specifically I'm looking at phosphor bronze acoustic bass strings (45-90 preferably)

There's a lot more to the MM experience than just the tone. The neck finish on a USA MM is VERY different from the SUBs and thus the feel is VERY different. I love the oiled neck of my Sterling - I can't play sticky painted or lacquered necks anymore.

Often - many years ago Midnight Music suffered a fire. A similar fate was dealt to most of the Sad Lovers & Giants multitrack recordings - the mixed down masters survived though.

Who?

Never

DELETED

Corrected for you

Why not use the Fender Vintage bridge with the threaded saddles? That allows the string spacing to be altered just by repositioning the string rather than adjusting the bridge.
