Nice Blue, very nice. Although surely you are a professional rather than amateur musician?

I believe the Roger Waters P has a maple-capped neck, which some believe gives a brighter, snappier tone.

Gorgeous basses. I too couldn't stand the scratchplate - they look the part but it felt like fingernails on a blackboard whenever I touched it 😨 Here comes the GAS again...!

Still very Rick bit with a massive low end. I prefer his Machine Head sound, a bit more clank and definition. But they're both cool!

The second one? Well it's a little uninspired possibly but it's hard to go wrong with simple symmetry. It certainly suits the body designs it goes with.

[quote name='Rich' timestamp='1488496601' post='3249558'] Utterly, utterly dreadful. I don't care how great the rest of the bass might be... this is a carbuncle. [/quote] That is AWESOME!

[quote name='Phil Adams' timestamp='1488440402' post='3248895'] Being old enough to remember the Kenny Everett compilation (12" on lime green vinyl) most of these has left me umimpressed. [/quote] I've got that! We used to listen to a tape recording of the actual radio broadcast when we were kids. Here are some gems: http://youtu.be/9EEZAivzl1Q http://youtu.be/ql3pwELzqZM http://youtu.be/Zo8DhbQw_O4

It's already been blocked!

It's a Warwick isn't it?

[quote name='dannybuoy' timestamp='1487355061' post='3239294'] Epiphone are about to replace the Classic Pro with the Vintage Pro, with vintage style chrome pickups... Hopefully they will be close to the Thunderbuckers! [/quote] We live in hope...

I would love a Lull 'bird - particularly the one with the oversized body - but they are beyond my budget sadly. My main bass is a Cataldo Fenderbird which uses Thunderbucker Ranch pickups, reverse engineered from the original Gibson pickups like the Lulls. They too sound wonderful, I assume they are similar. The sound puts a big daft grin on my face.
