[quote name='Axebassmurderer' post='1211673' date='Apr 26 2011, 02:11 PM']Hi All, Ok, I have recently bought a CORT version of the Axe Bass and I have to say it rocks. Would be looking to put EMG's in it soon but I wondered if anyone else has bought one and thought: 1 - This bass is 100% neck heavy to the point it's wearing out my index pinkie just holding it up. 2 - I like the pick ups but it struggles against the tones of my EMG's in my No.1 instrument 3 - Should I have bought a Punisher instead, Gene obviously prefers them for the reason 1 above. Anyway, has anyone else bought one of these and modified it in any way so the balance is better and perhaps put active pups in there? Surely I'm not the only one???[/quote] 1. Yep! But the Punisher isn't a lot better neck-dive wise! 2. I've upgraded mine to 18v active EMG P/J's and it ROARS! Do it!! 3. Nope, not 'instead'.... try 'as well' lol!

Just sold my Genz Benz 2x12 to Terry.... a nice easy transaction and a pleasure to deal with

I love EW&F! My fave track has always been 'Fantasy'...

I reckon the MU have got this wrong. You have every right to perform this song live as long as it is reported via PRS. As long as you're not selling physical product with the track on they have NO grounds to stop you playing it.... I'd tell them to go jump meself...

He's a good online friend of mine & a great player

Nice cabs.[/quote] Yep, I run two Genz Benz Neox212T's vertically... and aside from being extremely loud it is also GREAT for hearing your bass!

I have one of these too and I LOVE it! Great, punchy and growling amp - some great tones to be had Enjoy!

Welcome Ben! I've still got your much missed Wal - it's safe & sound! Gary

[quote name='lojo' post='1203819' date='Apr 18 2011, 05:15 PM']Just checked the thread, Guildford eh, I'm playing footy there tonight, and will be there at least 3 other times this week for various reasons I'll PM you[/quote] Look forward to hearing from you mate

[quote name='purpleblob' post='1204454' date='Apr 19 2011, 09:12 AM']Did anyone mention the guy from Dire Straits - wasn't his black Wal on show at Live Aid.[/quote] That's John Illsley - and yep he played his black one at Live Aid. Another player - Gary Tibbs played a Wenge MK1 Custom with Adam & The Ants

[quote name='bremen' post='1204446' date='Apr 19 2011, 09:03 AM']+1, never had a bad experience buying or selling here; feels more like trading with mates. Cetera, still *loving* the CIJ P neck you sold me a few years back. It's become part of the best bass I've ever played.[/quote] That's great to hear! Glad you're still enjoying it mate!

[quote name='stingrayPete1977' post='1201099' date='Apr 15 2011, 07:39 PM']My Genz Neox 2x12T is 600watt 4 ohm, 2 of them with a head that will take 2 ohm would be very tasty and impressive looking!
