    [quote name='Happy Jack' timestamp='1444377174' post='2882631'] Equally? I don't think so. Important, yes, but you can't argue with gravity. A 5Kg bass is still 5Kgs regardless of how well it balances, and it will exert the same pressure on your lower back etc. [/quote] Absolutely. What I should have said was that sometimes a heavier bass can feel lighter than it actually is if it's balanced well, and a light one can feel poor because it ends up being neck heavy.

    Surely how a bass balances is equally important?

    I had the same problem. Look [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/162862-grub-screws-for-a-1988-mij-p-bass/"]here[/url]!

    I've decided to keep the La Bellas, so just one set of GHS left.
  7. franzbassist
    I don't own one but have played a few, including one of Bernie's own Very nice guitars in my opinion. Fit and finish are first rate.
  8. franzbassist
    One set of GHS sold

    [quote name='smaz' timestamp='1443342719' post='2873903'] Whoops, replied to the wrong thread - these tuners were the ones I was interested in! [/quote] Apologies, I need to correct the original ad as the standard tuners were sold.

    [quote name='smaz' timestamp='1443293535' post='2873683'] I may well be interested in the hipshot tuners, if you're interested in putting the original ones back on for the sale. PM me if so, no problems if not! [/quote] Sorry, I sold the original tuners on

    [quote name='leftybassman392' timestamp='1443258605' post='2873433'] Very nice! I remember Bernie using guitars made by Sid (aka 'Les') Poole for many years. Is this a new model? [/quote] Ah yes, the Poole guitars. Very nice they were too! I think the PRS has been around a couple of years now, and has been a great success. Bernie uses stock models live.

    [quote name='DanEly' timestamp='1443009456' post='2871368'] You love having a pair don't you! Bump for a loverly bass and a sound guy! [/quote] Thanks Dan, much appreciated. How's the TF going?
  19. franzbassist
    No problem Richard, these things happen. I hope you get it all sorted quickly (and cheaply)!

    [quote name='karlfer' timestamp='1442745264' post='2869107'] In the unlikely event it doesn't pan out, put me in the queue please Gareth. Good luck though. [/quote] Will do Karl, cheers Oh and remember I have the same finish in fretless, so you could always do a neck swap

    [quote name='philw' timestamp='1442558577' post='2867710'] Back to five strings eh Gareth? I still have the Flyer and it's very much for sale :-) Phil PS. And the Precision is gorgeous, so yes, I'd consider a trade. [/quote] Hi Phil Thanks for the message. While the Flyer is lovely it's lined, so not for me I'm afraid!
  24. franzbassist
    Beautiful bass. I'd buy if it was unlined

    [quote name='Grangur' timestamp='1442508959' post='2867471'] Two things: 1 - How come every time a see a bass of yours it's breathtakingly gorgeous? 2 - Purely being nosey here, but the tasteful side dots we see there; are they on the "fret lines" or in the centre of the spacings? Good luck with the sale. [/quote] What can I say, I have impeccable taste! Dots are on the fret point.
