Depends what your budget is, but Xotic do really great 'super' Jazz basses, and they do a 24 fret version too. Certainly also checkout Maruszczyk, I would have bought an Elwood 5 if my Xotic XJ-1T 5 hadn't blown me away Si

Haven't done this mod, but the sound files on their website sound like a vast improvement! Si

Photos from my dad will hopefully be forthcoming this Sunday. Although my the time I get to upload them, probably be that I send them around on Monday Si

I think it actually looks really cool, I reckon it's just a CS build and won't come out as a signature, but if it did I reckon it would sell a lot. JazzRay in silver sparkle? Great stuff Si

Thanks, yeah TKS are on the radar, and I'll try them out at Bass Gear, but keen to try the Aguilars on a gig Si

Basically I'm considering a move to these cabs, but would really prefer to try and borrow a couple and getting them onto a function gig or two. Long shot, but let me know Si

Looks like a Maruszczyk Si

Interested to see this too Si

[quote name='BassAgent' timestamp='1465566325' post='3069336'] Those Xotics look amázing! How do they sound? [/quote] Really great to my ears, musical and intuitive preamp, great passive sound, I'm very happy Si

[quote name='Darkglass' timestamp='1465630584' post='3069709'] Thanks! We'll start shipping these early next month! This one's a tad clearer and tighter in the low end. I just regret naming these series "Vintage". The Deluxe 2 and now the Ultra can get some pretty classic sounds but they can also go super aggressive. I'm mostly off forums these days (working on the amplifier and some other, perhaps cooler stuff) but I really look forward hearing what you guys think about this pedal. Regards, Doug. [/quote] I did think it sounded like it could go more aggressive than the standard VMT. Sounds great man!! Si

I just finished up recording an album at home for a singer, I simply plugged my Precision with flats into one of our (I work for Focusrite) Clarett 2Pres and it sounded fantastic. This isn't a sales pitch at all, but just an example of getting the right instrument, strings and interface for the project you're doing, and you don't need much else. When I sent the completely un-produced stems to the mix engineer, he commented that all he needed to do was to put on a light compressor on them and it sat in the track wonderfully. Si

What's the budget? Because if you really want to commit to a travel bass, then the Fodera Imperial Mini-MG would be great........and empty your bank account lol: http://fodera.com/imperial-mini-mg Si

Here's my Xotic XJ-1T 5 'Lightweight' [IMG]http://i66.tinypic.com/23hkv4l.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i68.tinypic.com/34j9f2v.jpg[/IMG] Si

Find a retailer who has one in stock, and ask the weight?! I don't think you're going to get an accurate general answer simply based on how many they make, best to base it on the actual instrument you might buy. Si

Yeah, interesting, that goes way more distorted than the standard vintage right? Si

[quote name='Billy Apple' timestamp='1465276368' post='3066655'] Mine. We hooked it up on it's own with different leads and power supplies and no dice. Not tried it back at home, but I should imagine it will be going back. [/quote] Weird, not heard of DG Pedals going down before. Hope you get it sorted Si

[quote name='Happy Jack' timestamp='1465246448' post='3066530'] I keep getting visions of that Darkglass suddenly coming to life and emitting the most appalling sounds ... [/quote] Who's was that after all? Is it back working or had it genuinely died? Si

Another fantastic and successful bash! Thanks to Mick and all involved in organising it. Also, if you had photos taken by my dad, please can you drop me a quick pm so I know who has what coming. See you all next year! Si
