    Please tell me why I shouldn't buy a JMJ Mustang...

    1. bassbiscuits

      bassbiscuits

      No reason at all. Go for it, and enjoy! I've got a regular MIJ Mustang and its a brilliant bass. The JMJ if anything is cooler still, with upgraded pickups, bigger frets and lollipop tuners.

      And so I did!

      Result then!

    That moment when you try to setup your new Mustang as low as possible and it goes even lower than you expected. Lovely.

      I play with a really low action, That’s so nice when that happens 🙂

    2. BassAgent

      BassAgent

      Yeah I also like my basses setup quite low, so my eyebrows kept raising while I was setting up my Mustang. Very surprising to feel how low it can go.

    3. SpondonBassed

      SpondonBassed

      That's only okay if you can play comfortably with the higher eyebrow action.

    So it's going to take a while because I've agreed with Andy Baxter to wait with shipping until after New Year's (to prevent pointless storage in transit) but this absolutely gorgeous 44-60 with Fralin pickups is coming my way. Can't wait.

      @TheGreek Yeah me neither but on the other hand: no shortage of basses here

    In England at the moment, have some free time in Bath Thursday afternoon, who's up for a beer?

      Marc S

      Wish I was able to join you mate.... but I'll be in work :(
      Hope you have a nice pint, or three ;)
      Some nice pubs in Bath. Check out the tiny, charming "Volunteer Rifleman's Arms" - great little place,
      tucked away in a small lane. Nice atmos, nice beers
      Cheers!

    I've recently started a podcast with and about bass players here in NL and I really enjoy the responses I get. Very positive.

      gjones

      Oh dear. I'm up to 8 now.....

      Don't know how that happened?

      To be fair, 2 are self builds from bits I found hanging around.

      I am currently at 10 basses total, half of which are Jazzes. I really really like Jazz Basses ;)

      Nice smiley

  10. BassAgent

    It feels surrealistic: I have two gigs in one week next week. And one is in Belgium. And they're with an audience. And I can't wait.

    1. Chienmortbb

      Chienmortbb

      Wow I don't think we have two gigs this year. Enjoy.

    2. jezzaboy

      jezzaboy

      Gig?

      Audience?

      :scratch_one-s_head::scratch_one-s_head:

      Nah, never heard of those!

  11. BassAgent

    So someone stole two pairs of my favourite Nike Air Max today. Such a dumb theft, but so annoying. Give me back my shoes.

      Thank you for wishing me luck with my possible bass acquisition today.

  15. BassAgent

    It's all in Dutch, but here is the complete live stream I did with Aafke Romeijn. Used my Mustang and fretless Stingray and they sound amazing, if I may say so myself.

      Nice! 👍🏼

    The new body for my Dingwall has been on its way from Paris BACK to Memphis (long story) for eleven days now. I'm starting to think they've lost it.

      How do you say your surname?

  20. BassAgent

    Dang it. Because of my "which bass do you want but shouldn't" topic I posted a wanted ad for a Sterling Ray24 or 34. Stupid GAS.

      Quick, delete it while no one's looking ;)
