A whole minute sped up of him tidying away... God that man's tidy 😂 @chrisba definitely get on a course, it'd be great to see how you find it and what you get upto afterwards 😁👍🏻

Sorry, I hadn't woke up properly or had my coffee and cigarette.... Thanks for getting me though 😂👍🏻 top man That's good though regarding it being smoother, right? I know it's each to their own but I do like an active bass with a nice sweep of sounds than just having the raw 'metal bass' sound of active 5 strings. Looks great, parts or original and I'm sure it sounds great too 😁🙌🏻

Sorry bud, I see it now and had a thought I didn't have the right years but I've never really looked into Hofner models🤦🏼‍♂️ personally, I'd probably shoot for the 61 if the 62 is very mid driven and thin as myself and other bassists try and keep to the bass frequencies in our bands. What do you make of the Club series or is the Violin style, your style? It'd be great to see pics and hear your opinion when you get one 😁

Not one for me, for a few reasons but I appreciate people like yourself enjoy them and have a passion for their craft! 😁 Would the Neck/Bridge pickup (61?) Have more tonal options than the Neck/Middle (62?)? I can imagine the latter to sound more like an EB0 style bass but smaller in size.

Nice bass! Is it active with the EMGs?

Well this is mega disappointing. You got a toy 👍🏻

Tbf, for £299, you could get a cracking little bass and mod it how you like for less than £500 total. Still always be a £299 bass but will hopefully play, feel and sound to how you like 👌🏻 I do like G&L basses, perhaps feeling the guitars were better made in comparison but still a fan.

Currently waiting for @Cuzzie to send me my Go To bass 😉 In the meantime, mostly running things through my Yamaha BBP34/35. 😍

I want to like them as my first Fender was a '51RE. Absolutely loved it but sold it on regretfully. A 32" '51 just won't be the same, perhaps a more 'clunky' sound? 🧐

30" / 32" / 34"... Although I'd say 35" is probably considered the "long scale" in basses.

I want to like it but being the build I am and having hands like baseball mitts, I just don't think I'd get on with a short scale. On the other hand, I really love the design and only wish for G&L to release a 34" scale for us man apes 😂😂 Definitely seems like short scales are all the rage atm.

Why do those frequencies work for you? Why are they better?
