paul h Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 This is doing it for me big time! Even though I don't like humbuckers! The plan would be to get a p pick up installed and a coil tap for the humbucker. Yummy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 I was relatively GAS-free, until I saw Ieuan's gorrrrrrrrgeous Sandberg California JM5 last weekend... Either that or a Lakky DJ5 in white would do me fine. [quote name='mathewsanchez' post='415278' date='Feb 20 2009, 01:37 PM']Ok, i'm wierd, I like art deco and I like fancy woods.

Tait Posted February 21, 2009 Author Share Posted February 21, 2009 ooh i'll also add the bass i've had GAS for pretty much since i began playing bass and never got round to buying - [attachment=20682:hoppus.jpg] mark hoppus jazz, preferably in white, but any colour would make me happy. i dunno why i never got round to getting one, i suppose they're too expensive, and you don't see many second hand. i'm not sure what it is about the hoppus jazz, i'm more of n active bass person really, but i think its something to do with the sheer simplicity of the bass. it could also be that blink 182 were my favourite band for ages, and theyre still one of my favourites now. i don't know really, but theres still GAS for a hoppus jazz bass there, deep down, i've just learned to live with it. i still get that twinge of longing when i see one though.

Also, I guess you've heard Blink have are reforming.[/quote] i dunno if you've noticed, but theres no control plate, its a 1 piece pickguard. when you think about it, if you were to buy a mex precision and put a quarter pounder pickup in, you've got a better bass, cos its just the same but with a tone control and a different shaped body. doesn't stop them being much cooler though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seb_C Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 I was looking at an Aria in the local shop on Saturday. Pretty fancy looking, but compaired to a Squier of the same sort of price range the build quality (neck pocket, pickup routes) looked pretty ropey.
