I hope it is living up to the billing for you. I can't imagine what USA models will be like as they'll be a step or three up from the already excellent Skylines. Enjoy your new bass

Nice basses. I picked up a natural finish one some months back and really like it, good range of tones with added bonus that the tone control actually works rather than being a bit on/off. Pretty light too, mine was 4kgs dead, and a brilliant neck with a very tactile satin finish. Gratuitous pic IIRC there's one f/s on here to the same spec as mine.

@Dov65 Just remembered that that I have an ACG PB pickup spare (P bass split coil). They are 100mm x 50mm.

Nice work there. Love the Ricazz. I've been comtemplating mutilating a P bass and putting a mudbucker right up against the neck only because I'm not a massive fan of the tele headstock.

I'd love to see picks of that please, very interesting idea

How about getting someone like The Creamery to make you some P/J pickups in the same size casings so the look of the bass isn't affected?

That is like mixing matter and anti-matter; no good will come of it. Six days in and not bought anything yet, sorry people I will strive to do better.

A bit like this one (although I think this is platinum)? I'm actually rather liking that combo the more I look at it.

Good point @ped I had a Bacchus P bass that was smaller in size to the Fender offering and had 21 frets.

I think it's pretty much a black and white decision (sorry, couldn't resist). Grey pearl might be fun though?

I'm due a new custom TT imminently and, as I was dithering a bit over p/guard colour, I ordered 2 additional colours as well as the 'standard fit' item. I know, I really am that shallow

I had one for a while. Lovely neck, sub 9lbs and genuinely a very good instrument. Gratuitous pic.:

+1 for a Sandberg TT.

Neither fashinable nor left-field, but I really enjoyed/still enjoying Bruce Springsteen's Letter To You.

Can I ask if your other half could talk to my other half about bass purchases please

Sound samples have got me thinking about flat on one of my P basses. Hitherto I've stuck solidly to nickel or pure nickel round-wounds but the flats do sound really nice on that bass.

Me too. It has to be in the moment.

How about the MIJ/CIJ Geddy Lee Js. Only the MIM or MIA variant now so they may be worth watching. I've always had a soft spot for the Squier Silver Series too. Then there is always the odd little side model Yamaha do e.g. the Yamaha Billy Sheehan Attitude Special that may do well in the post apocalypse.

Do you mean you've bought a guitar Burn him, for he is a witch.

Do you have any idea about how many people constitute "a few people" and a ball-park price?

Good call.

Supertramp maybe?

Ash made me buy another of his P basses . Lovely chap and had a good chat when I picked it up. One of the top guys on the forum.
