    The one in The Gallery is a nice thing. I tried it the other day. Thin neck, nice tone, looks the part. My reservation is that I think it might be a bit pricey for what it is. But I guess the gallery has overheads that we don't. Your shortscale will undoubtedly be nicer to play, and what with these both being quite 'thumpy' semi acoustic basses, I doubt the scale length will make any real diff to the tone. GLWTS!
  2. W1_Pro started following Wal MK1 copy/tribute bass (Claassen MK1) , Handbox WB-100 - *SOLD* , Valve Amp - who’s still using them? and 7 others

    You can't deny, they are a fine looking machine these Handox amps. I really like the built in case. Very practical.

    Lovely bass for a very fair price. GLWTS!

    I use an Ashdown Little Bastard with the 2x12" Ashdown cab they make for it. It works great for me, a particularly nice feature is not needing a crane to move it...😆 The band I use it with has an acoustic drumkit and two guitarists who insist on not using any backline (hip, I know but I just can't warm to it, probably my age), plus a singer who uses ears. Onstage volume is never too brutal. Everything is put into the PA and both guitarists and I use wedges. The drumer also has an IEM setup. I get a nice breakup off the amp with plenty of bottom end. All in all, I'm a fan.😃

    First bass: Very dodgy P bass copy of inderterminate origins. Go to bass: A 1977 Aria Precise with a shaved down neck and an EMG pickup. 'Your' bass: 1984 Gibson T bird.

    They have a similar one in the gallery atm. A Country Gentleman bass, made in japan iirc. That one is quite a lot more money. This looks like a bit of a bargain to me. GLWTS.

    Just found this thread. Well done. The bass looks lovely and those pickups sound great. What a result!

    That Fafner is a lovely looking thing. Congrats.

    Lovely job that. Fantastic work. Enjoy the bass!

    I have a BBP34. Its a magnificent bass. I love it. Great sound, top notch components and build. Furthermore, as far as I can see, everything that Yamaha make, from mixing consoles to motorbikes are well thought out and supremely workmanlike devices. They do what it says on the tin very very well for a very very long time. All that being said- and I hate to sound cynical- what the IRA treatment boils down to; They take the bass, shake it for a bit (albeit at various specific and pre planned frequencies), and that is meant to make it sound better? I mean, who am I to judge.....?

    I'm interested, but sadly I don't have the cash! I hope someone bites. Its not a great time to be selling gear generally I think. There is a lot of nice gear on hear ATM which is just not shifting...

    Thats absolutely lovely, GLWTS.
