  1. Got one of the candy apple reds! As a frenchman, let me say - that's no "Sparkling Burgundy" 😁 And who in their right mind would carbonate good Burgundy wine anyway 🤣
  2. 3+2 G&L headstocks are worse than these
  3. I actually had one and would’ve kept it if it could be played with a bow
  4. It would be a Takamine TB-10 but with the fretboard and strings farther away from the body than on the normal model to be able to actually bow it and clear G and E strings.
  5. But then made it bigger on a G&L
  6. Must be one of the last Midnight Wine finishes, what a shame this color doesn’t exist anymore!
  7. Blooming Heck, that’s something! love how it looks 🥰
  8. Oh, a TSB with the 4 in line headstock. I would love to have one (I have a full scale RSB from 1979 with the same headstock)
  9. I had one PJ bass that has a pup combination that was good: a hot Dimarzio Jazz pickup and a "normal" P pickup
  10. Not sure if these are rare or valuable, but I'm certain this one is mine now 1991 Leo Fender Signature L-2000
  11. 4 is already less than average in my experience
  12. My Jag H just left to join another home where it’ll be loved and played…
  13. Not exaclty what you're asking for, but I've recently tuned my modified Bronco to "fifths" tuning (basically cello tuning one octave down: C-G-D-A low to high). I used a light set from a 5 string bass, using 5th, 4th, 2nd and 1st strings from low to high. I can't yet play it properly but the sound is interesting! In your case tuning to standard D, I would use four big strings from a 5 string set.
  14. Same disclaimer: not a great slapper myself. My Bronco has a bridge pickup added and it defends itself allright on classic boogie era slap and pop.
  15. It sounds great! Liked all the three pickup positions, interesting sounds from the each one. The only thing left to do is a new pickguard and you're good for next 50 years
  16. Gigged my Guild Starfire I last WE for the first time (the new model with PB pickup). Classical rock and blues with some vintage funk. This thing is a keeper!!! Good looks, comfortable and this sound! Both lows and highs are beautiful, very even string volume. One of the best basses I've ever had.
  17. When using roundwounds, I just unwind the exterior winding layer to fit the bigger strings. Doesn't work with flats.
