I totally get what you mean after having a bass VI, but part of the tone and charm of the VI is from the thinner strings and pickups in combination, which won't be the same on a 4 string version
-
I looked into these a while back as I love Sandbergs and they are definitely aiming for that market with these. The consensus was: -Good quality fit and finish -Tend to be heavy -Preamp is a bit naff
-
Oh exciting, I was very close and the options look extensive and they are willing to be "flexible" on shipping and import.... Look forward to hearing about yours!
-
I know this isn't strictly a BB, but my god, this will look amazing. (These are the guys who do Buzz guitars and basses)
-
Do we know if there are any places like Limelight that would relic an instrument you already own for you? I've got a burgundy Sire incoming and would like it to look more Betsy-ish

Could be the angle, but that humbucker doesn't look straight..... 😅 But throw some cream pickup covers on that 😍

Dream basses that left you disappointed
BassApprentice replied to Sarah5string's topic in General Discussion
Mine was the Yamaha Attitude. I was properly into shred stuff when I was younger and that was The One. Tried it and it just didn't fit with me. Next was the Ken Smith - neck was fantastic but again I didn't get that feeling. Part of it is possibly because those two basses are pretty complex and need more time than just trying in a shop/trying a friend's bass. -
Thought I was patient enough to wait for a relay of friends to get my new bass to me, but it's proving very difficult 😅

@Al Krow And conveniently there's one on eBay right now https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Beautiful-bass-guitar-great-quality-excellent-sound-/303955417110?_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l49286

Bought some strings from Jodie, super nice guy and even dropped them to my door!

Thread resurrection. Anyone in here able to make one for a Sire V7? Would like it to be removable as I've not had one before so not sure if it will work for me or not?

Dropped you a PM.... 😅 -
Shuker, ACG or Sei Basses for a custom build?
BassApprentice replied to PatrickJ's topic in Bass Guitars
This for me is the hurdle, I would love an ACG/Sei/Shuker but I would have no idea where to even begin. I don't think I've spent enough time with enough basses to even know what I would want them to make. Just another excuse to try and buy more things 😂 -

That was his first signature bass

Now in Velvet Black.

To be fair for Vulfpeck, a lot of Dart's tone comes from post production and live he tends to stay pretty consistent so he doesn't really need a tone or volume. But selling it for more than the one with more features, that's a bold move and it's paid off (for 50 sales at least 😂)

Neon or checkerboard 😂

Took my first trip to GuitarGuitar today and decided to do some serious tyre kicking of a Spector Euro LX....I wish I hadn't 😅 Everything just works. I hate finished necks, this one worked for me. I normally want to twiddle all the knobs but the Tone pumps takes away the need to do that. Body was comfortable, pickup placement was great. But I just don't have £2k to splash on one...maybe one day or are there any older/midrange models that remotely match the Euro?

Green vote here too.

This is...optimistic https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Yamaha-BB-series-5-String-Bass-/303967392622?_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l49286

Well I'll happily take it off you if you don't have the space 😅
