  1. Always blown away by his playing. I don't think I've heard anyone play like him. Expressive, unique. A great 70's Jazz bass tone. Although I think he's got some EMG's in that bass to give it that extra hifi clarity and punch.
  2. 10 pages of people banging on about "I don't like slap"
  3. Oh.. ok.. Not to any point that I had any experience with one.
  4. Never played a P Bass. Tell a lie, I played a JV P for 30 seconds and a Yamaha bass with a P pickup once. Strange really, after 17 years not one P bass. Its possibly going to be a revelation when I do.
  5. Yep.
  6. Ill message him later.๐Ÿ˜
  7. No not as yet. I think ill pass if its anywhere near that tbh.
  8. Got a quote from Simms for a strip and refinish. Was nearly a grand.๐Ÿ˜ฒ๐Ÿค
  9. Now a link to your MM I shall seek.!!๐Ÿ˜
  10. I can't seem to find David Wilson on FB.?
  11. A friend needs her bass refinished/painted. Cost is not an issue. What/who are the best in the UK.?
  12. Price drop.
  13. .
  14. No for sure not custom. I don't really dig the plain maple boards unless they were crazy Birdseye like my old 5594.
  15. Im the idiot for not making it more obvious. . ๐Ÿ˜†
  16. I just spoke with Steve P from Lakland and he said this. hmmmm. We have switched back to Rosewood boards on Skyline models, although I canโ€™t speak to what GG has in stock. They could have Pau Ferro boards on them. As for what GG can get from us, they are limited to what we are producing. We really donโ€™t custom configure Skyline models.
  17. Thanks bud.
  18. Sorry guys. I should have mentioned.
  19. Yes it is. Why do you say that.?
  20. bubinga5

    Gone.

  21. I would go further with my wallet. But having owned a 5594 deluxe and a few skylines im not sure the massive price difference is justified.
  22. I just spoke with Matt at the Bass Gallery. He told me he may be able to order the spec. He will let me know. There was a 5502 sold a while back that is pretty much the spec I'm looking for. This instrument. But like Sibob said the rosewood may not be available.
  23. I called Guitar Guitar and they can't order any Skylines for certain specs. What they have in stock is it. hmm
