Never played one, but I was interested too. Yes, it is a Fender style instrument, but with its own personality though, not a straight clone. Price and build quality seem to be pretty good. Nice that it is active/passive and has 3 band eq. Here's a nice demo

ok, I see. it seems they have added a Quilted Maple top, but the rest is the same.

Just bought an Ampeg Liquifier chorus pedal from Glenn and communication was great and the item was just as described. 5 stars @Glennalli

Best lightweight head and cabs for Reggae?
mario_buoninfante replied to Marcus Cornall's topic in Amps and Cabs
One thing I think is often omitted is that when it comes to "70s-early 80s" reggae and dub, a lot of the time the bass was recorded straight into the mixing desk, no amp head/cabinet involved. Just something to keep in mind when thinking about the reggae/dub bass sound. -

Tyneside mini bass bash - Feb 2023 (PIC HEAVY)
mario_buoninfante replied to wateroftyne's topic in Bass Guitars
Nice! The maple fingerboard (I think it's maple) makes me think of a snappy, bright sound but, I was wondering how the MM style pick-up is affecting the "Spector sound" -

Nice pics and gorgeous basses. Intrigued by the blue 5 string Spector with the MM pickup, is that a Euro? -

Squier 40th Anniversary Precision Bass - thoughts
mario_buoninfante replied to cetera's topic in Bass Guitars
Yap, I know all basses can have noise issues. I was genuinely interested in the noise source and whether or not had been isolated/found. -
Ah ok got it. Pretentious/offensive/provocative/troll mode ON, uh? Your second post is based on fried air. And your first one is just provocative in the most boring way possible. Have fun If fun is the right word

Ok, seriously now. Slim necks aren't faster than thicker ones. It's subjective. All good so far. Then things went south when you tried to sneak this in Not sure how that is THE main point, since it wasn't even mentioned initially and there is no obvious/direct link between your first post and this mentioned above.
-
I think you might be wrong, thin necks can definitely be considered *fast. You ain't said faster * fast = connected or attached in a way that is not easily unfastened

I might have been out shopping when they were delivering "The only irrefutable way to slide your hand/thumb on an electric bass - vol. 1"

as an Italian I'd rather have an olive oil one

Well, Picasso could draw like Raphael and that knowledge allowed him to break the rules and come up with Cubism. The guy didn't just wake up one day and invented a new style.
