Macassar!

Another 'if only it was closer'...

It's quite telling on the DVD that when JPJ plays the Fender Precision the bass really jumps out of the mix.

I played there a few years back - no problems whatsoever. There's a charming little room off to the side featuring gyrating 'lovelies' around a pole so be careful where you wander. ..

I didn't have a try on this model, but from what I can hear, it sounds pretty darn close to old Greco replicas, from late '70s and late '80s, which don't require so many bucks. [/quote] From this video, it sounds just like my old Greco.

[quote name='blue' timestamp='1415986362' post='2605898'] The PUs are so different , much hotter on the Gibson, and my 91 has a much thinner neck then the new Gibsons or the Epis.

[quote name='RoRi' timestamp='1415722382' post='2603050'] To argue about taste is senseless. Some people like to listen to modern music and others still like to listen to Deep Purple, Mud and Status Quo. That's okay by me.

Congrats on two stunning basses! Particularly the fiver, I've never seen one of those outside of a magazine! I'm a massive Spector fan, I've owned about ten over the years but sadly have none at the moment. This thread is not helping my addiction one bit. And while I'm here I'll give a little shout of approval for the Rebop line as they seem to be getting a bit of a hard time on here!

[quote name='Prime_BASS' timestamp='1415434427' post='2600219'] I don't see them making a come back in full, as I'm sure the filings for bankruptcy will have a catch or two. Also at 2.5k upwards still a very niche item, you can spend the same and choose a 5 piece body wood with loads of carves and bells and whistles. You could part up a similar bass for a lot less than the price they are asking. [/quote] That was never an issue before. And no amount of carves, bells and whistles will give you a Modulus, if that is what you desire.

Mother Stands For Comfort - Kate Bush

Gorgeous. I still want one.

I think he needs a new nickname.

[quote name='karlfer' timestamp='1415199296' post='2597768'] Think it's Who's Next, Craig Addecott's band, but don't quote me. [/quote] Sorry to quote you but it seems it's a 'house band' with none other than Mr Palladino on the bass. Well it is according to Ticketmaster!

£73 - £85 a ticket?!
