  1. I can remedy that quick, but wanted to do the bass justice and not show my ugly mug
  2. Feeling happy Been a while since a NBD for me, but traded an old P I wasn't using much for a natural 77 Stingray. It's a bit beaten up but plus nice. Pics to follow tomorrow.
  3. I think it was an early to mid 70's job. (and stock) The one he plays now I think was a fretless (might even be a jazz neck) that he got fretted, seems the neck and body might be from different basses. Not sure but that's my guess.
  4. Nice enjoy, I have had the fretless version for a while now and one bass I will be hanging onto, great build quality playability and sound.
  5. the strap I have started to use again from about 82.
  6. I also use one of the newish bassman 500's , which I'm loving now I got the right sound dialled in.
  7. I have had a few MM's and EB's over he years, nice basses but ultimately not for me. Never tied the sub or Sterling but I do have a Japanese Ibanez ATK 300 that gets me pretty close to the Stingray sound and feel whenI'm in the mood. They are very well made and get you 90% there in the sound imho. Good luck, enjoy the search.
  8. That certainly added to it. Bought 5 off here, that I can remember of.
  9. I did have just the one bass from 89- till around 2003, but then it all got a little crazy.
  10. I'm a bit of a sucker for vintage instruments and a bit of boutique, tho I do have a few beaters.
  11. Hadn't heard or seen that before! Well worth the watch.
  12. Public Image Ltd - Public Image Ltd. The easiest but still great!
  13. As the title says Not gas free, but curbing the urges. (anyone got a Jaydee they want rid of )
  14. I have seen Norman himself use one live and it sounded pretty good.
  15. That's what's been on mine for the last 5 years or so, same set
  16. I have 2 P's but one round one flats, covers nearly everything for me..except the Wal gets used 90% of the time
  17. Awesome and amazing. I kind of wish you had broken into some singing as well. If you can do that you have it all nailed.
  18. I think it's mainly for acoustic guitar, kind of like a hum kill.. not anything like any HPF that I have tried. I never engage the rumble filter when I use an electric bass. (thins things out a little too much if I remember correctly)= Lozz maybe has more details.
  19. For me, I found half-rounds to be not so good at either. I stuck them on a fretless in the end and had a bit of joy with them. Not for me but worth experimenting with.
  20. Not tried the fx's, but the Labella's are my choice of flats after trying many types. The FL's are what I use.. Highish tension but nowhere near the roto's and a little lesser tension than the ghs's if I remember correct. Not sure about the sound differences mine have been on one of my P basses for 6 or 7 years now.
  21. and the mothership was out. P-bass and flats to accompany it.
  22. Congrats. I also hope to own one someday. Looking forward to the replies.
  23. I've only owned two a 2001 and an 86, the Pre EB 86 was by far the best, nicer sounding preamp (for me) and the neck was well played in and very fast and smooth. Shame I just don't really get on with Stingrays enough to keep hold of them for some odd reason!
