  1. Cheers JapanAxe, I checked it and seems like a versatile preamp, but the slap sound still felt a bit overdriven to my ears.Might be just my phone speakers.....
  2. Hi Fellow Chaters Recently I’m trying to get into the pre-/poweramp setting game with my 410 cab.One of the options could be a rackmount Sansamp RBI with a Crown or QSC poweramp. The videos and reviews I’ve found are mostly about the driven ( SVT sort of...) sound, but cannot really hear that how it works with clean tone. Does this preamp do a Marcus Miller hifi slap, or a Jaco Pastorius tight back sound without colouring the sound of the bass? I’d appreciate any input here guys👍 Many thanks
  3. Absolutely agree😩It is just too bad to see the downfall of the original MetroExpress. These basses have become a downgraded entry level stuff. It seems to be the same category as the ‘Rockbass made by Warwick’ craps.
  4. It does. The current Metro Express received only appraisals for being the same quality as the Metros. German made Warwick will be easily on the same level I think, but Chinese made budget ones?I don't think so. They gonna substitute the ash and alder body with something else. Graphite bars and Hipshot hardware wont be in the specs....Pity cause I wanted a Metro Express, but this Metro-Rockbass Made in China thing just put me off.
  5. Epifani UL410 Bass Cabinet Cover in used but excellent condition. I believe it will fit and function with any guitar or bass cabs with the approximate dimension of 26.25H" x 23W" x17.75D" .It is an excellent choice for protecting your beloved cab during transport and storage. The cover is made out of quality and highly durable materials. Water-Repellent Soft Inner Lining Easy Clean-up with sponge and water Great as a Transport Cover, Storage Cover or Dust Cover Prefer collection in person, but I'm willing to post at the expense of the buyer. Thanks for looking.
  6. Tonal variety is huge on Sadowsky's. Their preamp allows you to dial the tone from a Jolana to Fodera or to other boutique jazzes😉 Try to imagine how it sounds with Dunlop, DR...etc nickel or stainless steel strings..... I use Labella Slapper on my Metro, and it CUTS in any situation.
  7. This A PURE STANDARD if you are a fan of jazz basses ! Could be a perfect match to my MV5.
  8. Please feel free to leave a feedback for Hoffbass here. Thanks
  9. Keith sold his Bergantino HS 410 to me two days ago.Cab sounds and looks as it should!He is a top bloke to deal with, and a highly recommended member! Thanks mate, Regards, Hoff
  10. Love 22 frets MTDs. The space look so comfortable between the neck and neck pup.Perfect bass
  11. Totally agree! The shape of a Classic MM is unbeatable. Never understood why they changed the look of 5 strings versions with that oversized pickguard
  12. Dream Stingray!HS 5,no oversized pickguard,mahogany tone block,maple fretboard!!This is a special one
  13. I can confirm that I have serial number 210 with warmoth stamps on the body and neck and it's still my pride and joy :-) As far as I know they put graphite rods in their metro necks since 2015.
  14. Any thoughts on this one?I've read that QC is not as consistent on the Indonesian 55-02 as it is on the US models, but this looks like a customised and limited issue, so QC must be more precise. I think it looks f..kin cool though. What do you think?
  15. Jeez this Lull is beautiful and its a steal for this money
  16. these have the sound that every hardcore jazz bass fan wants to hear
  17. [quote name='gillento' timestamp='1496048136' post='3308293'] Roscoe offers different pickup location as well.They put the humbucker closer to the neck ( like musicman). Found a video with how roscoe does the stingray sound. https://youtu.be/IHfIn4oU10U That is what Carey Nordstrand did with his Nordy Dan Lutz Signature bass [/quote]

  19. soon as I get the chance I'll try then report it back to you guys.Guess it's like a JO or Darryl J with alder body ( which I love). The only thing I miss is a tortoise shell pickguard...... or maybe I'm wrong🤔
  20. Any thoughts on this one? http://www.guitarguitar.co.uk/large/130/160314296047007f.jpg Lakland 55 JJ ( passive only) US made placid lake blue.I cant find reviews on this,but guess it is something that makes me obsessed with its sound and quality😃
