Whats the red one - the PG is different to a normal P bass though it looks familiar. Which is your main player? Why am I asking so many questions?

Why am I asking so many questions? -They are Joe Bardens. -Its a bitsa with a Status jazz neck and Hipshots. I got the body cheap on ebay, most probably a Jack and Danny one but I am not sure tbh - mainly the two Modulus (when gigging was still a thing) but it really depends on the need. The P bass is a lockdown thing so havent been out of the house yet. -Knowledge is power. 😄 Edited January 15 by ordep Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

prowla 1,442 Posted January 16 28 minutes ago, marleaux62 said: That jazz looks lovely It is really good - I had been thinking of building one from parts and I happened to walk into a shop which had it hanging on the wall there. Status Graphite neck, Warmoth body, Hipshot tuners, Badass bridge, John East J-Retro preamp, and not sure what pickups. I had its partnering fretless too, but I sold that on, as I only need one fretless. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That definitely looks like he same one I had. At the same time I had a black Flea that I really should have kept. It had a pair of Lane Poor pickups, a boost switch and a funky inlay of Randy Hope-Taylor at the 12th fret! 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
funkgod 100 Posted January 19 (edited) Here are a few, of them all the two stand out ones the dark wal in the middle iv had since the 80s and nearly worn it out so that is retired and the red 83 G&L L2000 is the only thing i have found to replace it in terms of power and the sound that i use, both are as good as each other for the same reason. The very early ( first few months) thumb bass sounds great very clean sound but just cant play it live, i cant take my eyes of the fret board everything feels too fat left by a few fretts, and just cant get use to it, the green 6 string XB600 washburn for what i paid is a real surprise, such a great sound low action and nice fast slim neck for me is bang on, all my 6 string fretted stuff is done on that, i would put that per sound against anything, sometimes things just work at any price, this one for me is my proof, each to their own and all that 🙂 Edited January 19 by funkgod 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
