    Ive owned a Sei Jazz 5 and they are stunning. Amazing build quality and the attention detail is astounding.

    Ive owned and played many Skyline 55-02,s 44-06 s 55-01 s. They have all been superb. Never a bad Lakland have i played. The best by far was an Indonesian made 5502 Deluxe. What a bass. USA lakland electronics and pickups..

    This Bart B Axis are killer pickups. Nice bass and upgrades.

    Thanks for the feedback. Well i wanted an unbiased opinion as ive been asked to join the band so yes some were right. 😆 I was asked to stand in last minute on these recordings because the other bass player had some personal issues, so thats my last minute playing. I was just playing as simple a bass line for the songs. Im still not sure as im not a fan of the vocals either. I have played live with them once. How do you tell someone there vocals arent up to scratch. Hmm.

    Absolute killer bass playing. Lots of space she leaves for the rhythm

    I can get lost in that song. Played on her 60's jazz. "My mother used to whore herself" Its a great start.😆 But an insite into Meshell's childhood. Like you say her touch and funky nuances on the bass are just fantastic with the keys near the end...

    Now I haven't listened to any Meshell for quite a long time. You might be aware I like her music from my avatar. I listened to it in the car today and Im still blown away how good it is. The lyrics, her incredible tight groove bass playing which is totally unique, you can tell its Meshell when she plays.. Everything about this album is just fantastic.. Good music stays with you and when you haven't heard it for a long time its even sweeter than the first time.

    Love the tone, great Chaka track and that is some fantastic playing, really enjoyed it.

    This is a cracking bass. Such a great feel to it and a lovely neck. And Wilco is a top bloke and a pleasure to deal with.

    Man I love this bass, but alas have nothing to trade. Do you take instalments Mick😂
  18. bubinga5
    Lovely these are. But your best bet is to buy a cheap hardcase. Shipping it abroad with no case. Your just asking for it to be damaged.

    Easy to forget how good she was. No lip synch, no auto tune back then. She came from the church and a bonafide gospel singer from a teenager. Just huge power and control in her voice.

    The end result. Its pretty much a brand new JRetro Deluxe with all stuff/box letter etc expected from a new one. Im pretty blown away.
  21. bubinga5
    Is the MXR still available.?
  22. bubinga5
    This could be really old news, but am I right in saying Carey is no longer making instruments. Concentrating on Nordstrand Audio etc.?
  23. bubinga5
    When you play one of these you realise how fantastic they are. he clarity and growl they have is just.. If I could only have one six string it would be a gen 1 TRB
  24. bubinga5
    For sure they are not out there prices. Im amazed you can get a bass like this for just under £3000. Ask Martin from Sei for a sexy top sexy Jazz bass and your into the £4000 mark. Ask Mr Stenback and it will be £5000 +. go figure.. A GB Spitfire without all the zing will be roughly in the £2500 price bracket. .

    That is just stunning. I think Ive been out Spitfired.!! The neck through is just wonderful. Im sure mine is a 34"scale mind, but will have to check that. Thanks Visog. Without wanting to sound personal. your knobs look different to mine. Mine are a rubber 4 rings around a plastic knob. Did you change yours.?
