Absolute gent to deal with. Decisive, great comms, quick payment, patient with the current carnage that is UK deliveries, very pleasant to deal with. Yet another great ambassador to our wonderful community. Many thanks Nick, hope the young 'un enjoys it.

Yup, strange that. I've just double clicked it and it went to the Facebook link which is a Floyd tribute band sound check in Chorley. Anyway, last night I took the Bass Collection Power Bass to the gig. My Jazz Elite never left it's stand. The range of the pickup on the Bass Collection is excellent, it's quite light - the neck is exquisite. I love this Fender copy! 😁

Interesting this. I'm a bit of a Fender fan boi but I've recently been looking for a non PJ with slimmer neck. The most obvious is the Nate Mendel but by accident I saw/heard the following bit of soundcheck. I knew the neck profile was good, had a chat with the bass player who I've sort of known for 50 years and it's now in a rack behind me. This Bass Collection Power Bass is beautifully made, sounds great, is easy to play & less than half the price of a Nate. 1st gig with it tomorrow night. https://www.facebook.com/lin.davies.7902/videos/1270060980436930

Mainly P on full all the time & dialing woofer in for more bottom end when needed. Bit of a faff often needing to dial stuff in-between songs, but worth it

Regarding harness if you do replace it, it might be worth considering a stack pot for the P pup. With it being woofer vol tone, but only volume for the P I always felt I was missing bit of potential on mine (stupidly long gone).

40mm nut & slimmer back to front compared to the 44 mm Attitude LTD. Alain, Richie Thomson in Wigan has a sratchplate template for one of these, he did a fabulous brown tortie for me some years ago. Just in case 🙂 edit, I forgot, I sprayed the woofer cover black.

Fantastic basses, I was going to have a go at that one but the refin stopped me Alain. Enjoy, very jealous 😁

Cheers Lozz hope all is good fella

I would like a clean boost for a couple of numbers where the bass comes "to the front". Would this chap linked below do that? Also, the 5 piece may be going out as a 4 piece for a few gigs so I'm thinking it would give a little more beans when the only guitarist is soloing. Please understand I am a complete dummy & know nothing about effects pedals, Thanks folks. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/372150681898?_trkparms=amclksrc%3DITM%26aid%3D1110006%26algo%3DHOMESPLICE.SIM%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D242764%26meid%3D9b2feacad2e449479099762a41555326%26pid%3D101195%26rk%3D1%26rkt%3D12%26sd%3D255792544294%26itm%3D372150681898%26pmt%3D1%26noa%3D0%26pg%3D2047675%26algv%3DSimplAMLv11WebTrimmedV3MskuAspectsV202110NoVariantSeedKnnRecallV1DwebOnly&_trksid=p2047675.c101195.m1851&amdata=cksum%3A3721506818989b2feacad2e449479099762a41555326|enc%3AAQAHAAABIPnNgQzrwy4hcSW%2F1r0wjcHUoW2vznLktC1ywnd%2BfgwtVkfbqrg79mnCGmVqoaequeJtVfKXg136SWaKVngTop3JnbmUEUdhfiQsEDWfHdb4mgsGd7W3dfVMVn%2FY%2FZULMolJde8HRH%2F88DFTgNgNg2m0MRN4oM%2BtoLM2yZuZ1Nn%2BHo%2Bf4UmfATDrngcCtfMOAiozeCWj2qlgpLAx2%2Bnj2Ew88%2B9oznUJm7LYM9PmTdAE6uHHkN3MVIWt%2F4uKbc8MGAjAogR6b7GqfOksR3Tz1oodGPp8a%2FwfsmbNbLjvc6M%2Ff5IAIdh20aQDgN8jAl3pza8ZgZ43ReXPC9gMydfepATrBtPo%2BcjpF64SkblysIkTb6I%2FdZW31KCu2rCG3psfKg%3D%3D|ampid%3APL_CLK|clp%3A2047675&epid=1874300768

Whilst I wasn't happy with Ander (joke, I missed his purple Limelight a few months back & I'm still slapping myself 😆😆) I had the pleasure of meeting & handing over a bass to him yesterday. He has been an absolute pleasure to deal with, decisive, great comms, did what he said he'd do & all with a great sense of humour. I'm very lucky, pretty much all of the folk I've dealt with on Basschat have been lovely genuine folks & great ambassadors for this forum. Ander is yet another one deal with this really nice guy with utmost confidence. All the very best Ander, enjoy the bass & my thanks to you.
