    [quote name='Bugbass' post='564549' date='Aug 9 2009, 10:39 PM']Just 3 weeks, but I absolutely love it! It really nails that 70`s jazzbass sound.[/quote] Congrats, the black body and maple neck is a great look

    [quote name='dood' post='563836' date='Aug 8 2009, 10:20 PM']I had a great visit to Bass Merchant yesterday thinking that I was gonna buy a new rig - and found some great gear - but interestingly it has helped my cement my ideas about what I need, as opposed to having an enormous GAS attack in a giant toy shop. That aside, I could have quite easily have bought a TC rebel head or GK MB2 500 yesterday ! SOOOOO NICE![/quote] Did you try the Tecamp Puma 1000 head they have there?
  5. Platypus
    Lush collection you have there B5!

    Bought a cab from Alan yesterday - and sold him an amp in the past. Always easy to deal with and could happily recommend him to anyone.

    [quote name='birdy' post='556742' date='Jul 31 2009, 01:44 AM']I am still loving mine :-) How are all of the other recent owners getting on? Still in the honeymoon period guys? Steve[/quote] Couldn't be happier with mine Expect it plays a little different to yours, as it has the spalted maple top, pickups in 70's position and a different (3 band) pre. I've either sold or am in process of selling my other basses - soon will just have the Coppolo 5 and a very nice Celinder jazz 4 fretless, I recently aquired from Danish basschatter Batukarma Paul

    [quote name='Etienne' post='555462' date='Jul 29 2009, 07:11 PM']That is a seriously nice instrument! Are those Big Splits or Fat Stacks in there?[/quote] It's a Fatstack at the bridge and Big Single at the neck - used to be mine, very good bass it is too
  17. Platypus
    Just out of curiosity - what was his feedback stats?
  18. Platypus
    Very, very nice bass you have there, Alan
  19. Platypus
    Sold a Sadowsky to James last week. Couldn't have been easier to deal with - pm'd me about the bass and then arranged the payment within 30 mins. Would recommend him to all here Cheers James. Paul
  20. Platypus
    Could be you last chance to get you hands on this bass. It plays every bit as good as it looks and that's saying something. Nice light weight too...
  21. Platypus
    The stock lakland 55-01 is a very good bass, this one with its Nordstrand pickups and Glockenglang pre is greatly improved. It really does have great tone in both active and passive mode
  22. Platypus
    BUMP

    Thanks for the comments all. [quote name='lozbass' post='540124' date='Jul 14 2009, 10:57 AM']Whooaahh! Platypus, that is stunning - is it one of the Dalbergia Negra boards that Jimmy was supplying in 2008?[/quote] Lozbass, The board is Bacote, known as Mexican Rosewood.
  24. Platypus
    Here's one of it being played by someone who knew what they were doing (that's not going to happen again!) Can't imagine what it must have sounded like with that bass, that backline and THAT player (this is a shot of Nathan East playing it at Bass Player Live )
