  1. Chemical Warfare - Slayer
  2. OMG, that's a beauty and no mistake, the black one was/is one of my bucket list basses. GLWTS.
  3. It's unfortunate that they are unique to the bass (as fabulous as they are), as the market only seems to carry the more "traditional" clover or Y shaped tuners, with bigger base plates. A "work around" could be to use something like the Licensed Hipshot Ultralite, as the overall footprint is smaller than that of the original tuners. Or take it to a trusted repairer and see if they can fix the originals for you. Good luck, hope you can get the original tuners fixed.
  4. All of my other Faker's reside in the Thomann "classic" case (https://www.thomann.de/gb/thomann_ebass_case.htm), so it makes sense to consider the ABS one. Cheers. 👍
  5. So my recently acquired 4003's case has seen better days, one of the feet is missing (common problem with the Ric ABS cases), it's generally beaten up, and it's a bit pongy too. Has anyone ever put their 4003 into an aftermarket, preferably hard shell, case? Any recommendations? Anything to avoid? Anything to look out for? Must admit that I prefer a hard case rather than a gig bag, even though the modern gig bags are very good. Would consider one of those oblong soft cases like the Gator GL Bass case or the Rockcase Soft-Light case. Cost is a consideration, but I will consider anything really. Thanks.
  6. Washburn Force 4 or 8? Washburn B20?
  7. Anything by The Cure?
  8. Bullet the Blue Sky - U2
  9. Yamaha BB's.
  10. Bad Reputation - Thin Lizzy
  11. Matsumoku is definitely the way to go, an Aria Pro II or a Westone (Thunder II or III). Ibanez are always a great choice, maybe a Musician or Roadstar.
  12. Over and Over - Black Sabbath
  13. Remember licking 9v batteries to see if they still had charge left? Wonder if that'll help? Very interesting article though. Wonder if they're going to do any further studies into it?
  14. Sands of Time - Fleetwood Mac
  15. Ventilator Blues - The Rolling Stones Oxygene - Jean Michel Jarre
  16. My Iron Lung - Radiohead
  17. Just Breathe - Pearl Jam Breathe - The Prodigy Gasping for Air - Autopsy
  18. Malice Through the Looking Glass - Cradle of Filth
  19. Just a suggestion, as I got the impression you were saying that they weren't punchy enough.
  20. @Maude, have you had a look at the Gemini Pickups Waveriders? Plenty of oomph in them. I put a set into my Walnut, and it sounds very punchy indeed.
  21. Walk Like an Egyptian - The Bangles
  22. His Daughter Caroline - Chuck Berry
  23. Caroline - Status Quo
  24. Sweet Caroline - Neil Diamond
  25. Stingin' Belle - Biffy Clyro
