I'm looking to purchase a smaller amp. I have an AG 500 and really love the Aguilar sound. I'm wondering if these two amps are comparable.? Or maybe a TC electronics comparable head. Any thoughts.?

.

Does anyone notice any difference in quality from Indonesian made to Chinese made.? I'm guessing if I order one from Thomann now it will be Chinese made.?

Are you stuck on Fender.? If so why not look at the AVRI,s.? The 62 jazz is great. Or the more recent 74 jazz.

This instrument was played by a famous person in the 80,s, but I can't remember who. It's very rare. My dream bass. A Hamer Impact from 1988.

Please educate me.

I think it looks like many boutique jazz basses. I'm not sure what price they might be asking for it. I'm guessing it's going to be a game changing bargain.!?

Just thought i would share this, from the Sire FaceBook page.. Seems they have a new Jazz bass in the making. Looks very cool. Same preamp, same pickups. Quilted maple top with binding.

Looks like this in the Sire pipeline. Looks lovely.

I'm also aware of the weight issue. I want to order a 5 string sunburst with maple fret board. I wonder if it's possible to order a good weighted bass from Thomann

[quote name='Rich' timestamp='1488969220' post='3253291'] The V7 fiver weighs a shade over 10lbs. You can shave 1/2lb off that by fitting lightweight tuners as one or two of us here have done (I think). Mine says it was made in Indonesia. I believe they still are. Certainly no build issues with mine. You can order direct from Sire in the US if you want to take the hit on tax and duty. What with the [bittersarcasm] recent fantastic performance of our glorious national currency [/bittersarcasm] I very much doubt there's any saving to be made by going direct to Sire. As far as Europe are concerned, it's either Thomann in Germany or [url="https://www.strumentimusicali.net/default.php/manufacturers_id/609/Marcus-Miller-by-Sire.html"]Strumenti Musicali in Italy[/url]. But they're both the same price. [/quote]Ok. Thanks Rich.

I've not heard of Black Moon before. I will check them out. Cheers.
