gotta be the classic vibe jazz, or if its out of your budget the VMJ

i think its quite nice!

im gettin the pickup upgraded soon hopefully, after that i cant see me being able to find a fault in it

very recently bought myself a Icon V4, very happy with it!! Makes me wonder why people can spend thousands on a precision

Don't think 'right, £1400 to spend on an amp...', why not just go round, try out as many amp heads as you can without considering price, and buy the one you like best, be it £500 or £1500

the stock pickup isn't the most powerful on the icon v4, but tonally i quite like it, although upgrading to a wizard pup would be great im sure. Im quite happy with the hardware, i like the aged bridge . I hate the fact iv bought it new as i know that il get nothing like when i sell it, but not selling is fine with me

well, i took the plunge. Tried it again today and decided it was worth it, cracking little bass

yeah as i said i was impressed and it did easily match the MIM (and was a lot lighter too), just really inquiring about build quality really.

Tried one of these in the local soundcontrol/reverb yesterday, and was impressed with it. Played easily as well as the fender mim i a/b'd it with, but with a slightly weaker pickup. Otherwise its great, and against what i thought i really like the relic finish on it. However, for £199 im not sure whether its worth it, partly because im sure theres better on the second hand market for that price, and partly because as soon as i set foot outside the shop, it will halve in value! Anyone else got one? Iv seen quite a bit about the jaco esque vintage, but not too much about the P.

RATM is one of my favourite albums ever, you so rarely get so much passion locked into a music track like that, one of the only albums iv listened to that i can truly say blew me away.

must be one weird electronics package to create a p sound...

how can anyone be so deluded

seems very nice, in bristol too. Bassassin??
