Differing opinions are welcome, and indeed necessary......close-minded, rude and insulting people are not.....sometimes they go hand in hand, usually they do not Si

They're arriving imminently Straight off out to a gig, but can't wait to sit down later with them.....even if its just to listen to music in bed lol The real test will come tomorrow with Logic Si

Omnomnomnomnom Is it a custom shop?....Seemingly a '62 vintage/reissue, but its got a 70's logo and 3 bolt neck? Colour me confused Si

[quote name='BTGAndy' post='1109372' date='Jan 31 2011, 12:56 PM']I was looking at the KRKs, I use the RP5s for monitoring so I'm a big fan. I understand the the main difference between them is that the 8400s have a volume control and nicer padding on the earpieces. The 8400s have a little more bass response whereas the 6400s are supposed to be a little bit more neutral sounding. I was looking at getting the 6400s, there are some good reviews out on the web if you search youtube. I freaking love First Signs of Frost mate, are you planning any releases in the near future?[/quote] Haha cheers mate, FSOF keeps popping up in my life via random people, even though we haven't done anything in about 2 years We briefly discussed doing a few reunion shows, but Dan is very busy with Tesseract and everyone else is busy with other projects also. I think it will happen, just not sure when Yeah the KRK's were my first choice simply beacause I love their monitors whenever I've sessioned with them, but they're not an option in my flat. I also get a very good price, so thats why I'm looking at them over other brands just now Cheers Si

Can anyone in the know tell me the basic difference that I might find with these two models (yes I know it basically relates to frequency range).....anything else? [url="http://www.krksys.com/krk-headphones.php"]http://www.krksys.com/krk-headphones.php[/url] Also any other suggestions? Cheers Si

[quote name='Stroopy121' post='1103865' date='Jan 26 2011, 03:35 PM']Any reason you think that, or is it just a taste / looks thing? I'm considering a new bridge for my jazz because the current one has seen better days and was considering a badass? xx[/quote] Have to say, after having a Badass on a jazz for a good year or so, I didn't really notice any difference to my other standard Jazz bridges.....and they are bit ugly.....well not ugly, but I don't think they suit the aesthetic of Fenders if I'm honest. Si

Wish I could come tonight, but I'm in central. Hope its a massive success Si

The Jaco-esque fretless is beautiful!! Si

+1 for Wizard Andy just re-wound the bridge pickup on my '83 Jazz and it sounds fantastic, 2 day turnaround I think it was! Si

The ACG looks very cool, and the tune featuring it is great! Found 'your' bass in that? Si

Put the bass pic in the settee thread, but received by Barefaced Compact yesterday, so thought I'd post it all. Not pictured is my Ashdown ABM EVOII 500 and Mini 4x8 [url="http://img407.imageshack.us/i/bassc.jpg/"][/url] L-R: 2003 US Jazz Standard, 1983 US Jazz, 1973 US Jazz, 2009 US Jazz Standard 5 [url="http://img690.imageshack.us/i/barefaced.jpg/"][/url] And a little pic of the '83 stripped down when the pickups went off to Wizard, just because I thought it looked cool [url="http://img337.imageshack.us/i/83098172.jpg/"][/url] I'm happy Si

To me in makes sense to have as little of the cab exposed to damage as possible, and that means the base of it. Plus that's how I will store it (when it arrives ) Si

Love DUI! Si

[quote name='gilmour' post='1085708' date='Jan 11 2011, 04:56 PM']I play upright as well as electric, I was just a little surprised that 35" felt different. By no means am I saying the OP shouldn't get a 36" I can really see the logic in it especially if tuning to Bb - just think it's a good idea to try one first.[/quote] Well if we're speaking logically, shouldn't he just get a fanned fret bass? Si

Yep I'd just get it to a luthier nice and quick to get a prognosis! The rule of thumb I work by is 'always keep your basses in an enviroment you'd be happy to stay in'. I'd leave my amps/cabs in my car overnight if I had too, but never my basses! Good luck buddy Si
