[quote name='The Dark Lord' timestamp='1363896343' post='2019183'] Yeah. I think a lot of us a devoted Rotosound round geezers. I fancy I'll have a dabble with flats though. [/quote] Exactly what happened to me.

My TIs came. I'm empressed so far. In hindsight I probably didn't need xls for the lakland and they seem fine strung through result!

Yeah it looks like. Mine has the fralin pickup and the neck is gorgeous so I won't be upgrading I don't think I can't find a single fault.

I had a heavy old 78 that was pretty cool. Neck was lovely and the tone was killer.

I think it will be okay, the bass can do either through or over. Depending on how it went I was thinking of putting some on my T-40, which only does through body :/.

Black basses are super cool. I'm starting to lean towards sunbursts recently though. Can't go wrong with either really, black has to have a maple board though.

As the title says, I've ordered myself some Thomastik Jazz flats after reading this thread http://www.talkbass.com/forum/f16/confessions-flatwound-convert-519803/ I hope I get on with them, I ordered x-long as they're going on my string-thru lakland, also hoping that's right :/. I'm a long time Rotosound Swingbass player so it's a massive leap into the unknown for me. I'll let you know how I get on. Nervous excitement is building!!

Jealous :/ what's it like sound wise? Stand up to a P-bass? How's the string tension?

Serial numbers is it i think, apart from finish they'll look similar, the AVs come with ashtrays, both are nitro finished. Not sure if colours are different?

They are Mexican. Always have been as far as I know.

How does it handle? Want!

I had a bongo 4 HH briefly, it was a great bass to play, action was good, sat nicely on a strap, was pretty lightweight, neck was amazing but I just couldn't get on with the preamp. I say the same thing about most active basses though.

I've seen a fretted one, never a fretless though.

I like it. I like it even more because fender built it. I believe Tye refers to it as 'The oar'.

I'd leave it.

I've already got a Bob Glaub geezer was one of my early influences too. Infact the first song my first band learned was paranoid

That's a lot of money for a bass with someone else's bits on it :/

I love the geezer bass. Want!

Love it. Quite fancying a DJ 4 myself. To go with my Bob Glaub

I like the Jupiter shape. Looks very space age. Also not sure if I'd own it. Does look cool though.

Hi everyone. I've recently taken possession of a lakland Bob Glaub (p-bass) and I quite fancy putting some flats on it. I've never used flats before, I'm more curious than anything. Just wondering what people would recommend? My preference of rounds are Roto Swingbass 45-105 if that matters.

Ignore
