100% yes. I’m yet to hear a modern bass that recreates the tone well enough and I’ve tried.

My lottery win bass fund will be so substantial that I will need to also budget for a separate house to store them. Is that too many?

When you start forgetting what you own. Someone on here found an Alembic Stanley Clarke while clearing out their wardrobe.

Cannot wait until I finally get my mitts on a KS. This one’s particularly good looking

I assume my OBBM cables will never fail. It’s been 8-9 years so far without fault.

My third bass was a Fender P bass and I still have it. Ten or so basses have come and gone since but this P has stuck. It doesn’t cover everything but if I was gigging it’s all I’d use.

I played a Dokata Red CS jazz once that was loverly. It felt superb but wasn’t quite the true 60s tone of an original

There’s several sites mentioned in this thread. Wunjo currently have a ‘75 P bass in stock just under £3k.

Is it not just a US deluxe with LEDs?

For those that want a British bass with fiery tone, the Anaconda basses are starting to get to me. The clips I’ve heard of the essence range sound incredible.

Is it ACG that uses filters instead of EQ or is that Alpher? That will give you something very different to the Overwater.

Record it at home on a fretted and then practice with the fretless over the top. Practice until it’s bang on every time.

I’d love to see this in Purple metallic flake with matching headstock!

You’ve sure had some great basses. I love the look of the Atelier Z you’re currently selling, looks really classy in black.

Managed to get tickets this morning for the Saturday gig in London. Wanted to see RCHP live since I was 13. Ridiculous price though but seems to be the going rate nowadays

If you’re a lefty I’ll take it 😂

I made the leap last year. I have small hands and find the strat much easier than others to play due to the shallow neck. It’s taking a while to get used to a completely different technique but is actually fun to be a beginner again.

I had a 2000 Us jazz deluxe V and it was ok. I paid under £500 for it about 12 years ago so you’d be looking about double that now even though a new Sire would be an improvement. The time where Fender really improved the US jazz bass was circa 2012. Better build quality all round and much better output pickups/ preamps. The standard series would probably be similar.

I’m the opposite. I don’t want a pre and like the idea of a roasted neck but I prefer the looks of the black/ maple V7 vintage. Hopefully they’ll add more options next year

I asked a month or so back and got no reply

Not the longevo strings - Elixir types

I wanted a Jaco signature fretless but preferred the refurbed bass of doom. I was looking at the Fender Artist series and realised I could get an Overwater for not much more. It’s closer to my preferences than the bass of doom, but it’s been inspired by it.

I just know the one time I try something like that I end up behind bars and on some terrible Channel 5 border documentary to be repeated on Dave forever.

I think this bass needs rebranding

Can only think it’s a tactic so the phone dies before Fender accepts payment
