  1. Love the colour of the fretboard and headstock. Luckiest Grandchildren in the country.
  2. I think @hen barn is coming from Brighton...maybe a car share could be on the cards.
  3. Perfect description of Yamaha basses.
  4. By the time you're ready to leave you'll have at least three on your list of "must haves" and GAS for loads of basses. It's cheaper in the long run not to come but great fun if you do.
  5. Headstock seems familiar but I can't think what it is.
  6. Edit the title with "sold" and ask the mods to lock?
  7. TheGreek - Zoom B1 effects pedal + donations from D'Addario. bnt -T.C Electrionic Nether Octaver Hamster - An Ashdown 2x10 combo with Ashdown 15" extension speaker donated by BigJHW. mrn1989 - DemonFx A7K (Darkglass B7k Clone) Oomo - DigiTech Jamman looper pedal.
  8. Not that I should need to explain myself to you but I wanted easy access to the review. Happy now??
  9. Overly critical imo - yes this is a low to mid price bass but it doesn't feel cheap. The build quality is more than OK, neck fit is what generally let's a bass down - no issues with mine. Neck profile is chunkier than a standard jazz but not so much that it is in any way difficult to play. The shallow profile would appeal to slappers for sure. In house Spear pickups are adequate - if you want to swap them out that’s your perogative but who is going to spend more on pickups than on a whole bass? Tuners/ machine heads are your typical elephant ears - seem to hold tune OK so far. If you don't have great expectations you won't be let down. It's an unusual beast and that really is going to be its USP.
  10. Can’t decide between a P, J, or MM bass? Spear has you covered with the Flextool, a bass that’s loaded with all three pickup types. The Flextool is built with an alder body, Canadian Hard Maple neck and Indian Rosewood fingerboard. Its pickups and hardware are all Spear’s own brand. The pickups include a single coil in the neck position, a split single coil in the middle, and a humbucker in the bridge position. Each pickup has its own volume knob. The Flextool also has a master tone control and a kill switch on the lower horn. The Spear Flextool comes in Black, Lake Placid Blue, Orange, and Jamaica Green color schemes.
