That LP bass really was a lot of fun good luck in your search

We seem to be getting a lot of personal attention on basschat lately

Forgotton the guys name... he wasn't a member on here at the time. Mart or something??

I have nothing useful to add but I've always preferred the look of the 4004's

I've got the sd's in mine and I wouldn't swap them out

I like it.except for the back. I seem to remember them doing that on a fair few prs instruments.

Lovely growly tone and a tonne of punch. Plus you get surprised faces to entertain you while you first turn it on

Just buy a Shuker/ACG instead that way you need the deposit then you have 9months+ (at a guess) to save for it!!

[quote name='chrismuzz' post='1172904' date='Mar 23 2011, 08:18 AM']Wow I didn't think that possible with those gauges! They've surprised me once again! Hope you get on well with those dude[/quote] Me either! I'm rather chuffed, I'm still going to get a new nut/setup but if I should change back to the 'old strings' it should just require a setup. Very happy indeed

And the fast reply from NEWTONE is brilliant [quote]Rik. Thank you for contacting us, we can make a Custom set of .050-.110 which will be suitable for the tuning you are using, but you would not be able to tune them up to standard tuning. Minimum order is 2 sets and they cost £25.32 each. Best regards, Malcolm Newton/Neil Silverman[/quote] I'll be ordering a couple of sets after payday

You can't do that!!! We need to know what you want to make!!

It's one of the things about tuning to drop C that is so appealing No-one borrows my ACG, thats not a trust issue so much as a general rule.

I'm letting them recommend to me. I tune CGCF and have stated I like high tension, usually use 110s for standard tuning EADG and want something comparable for tuning CGCF and I am willing to alter the nut to accommodate. All on my 34" ACG. If thats not enough information I'm sure theyll ask for more Drop C tunings strings should be in standard production by now though IMHO

Just dropped them a line

A double post 5 minutes apart. Interesting

What kind of sound do you generally get from Newtone? Fairly bright and zingy is my hope as I may be VERY interested!!!

In standard tuning my ACG holds its intonation right up to the 24th fret on all strings... In drop C it struggles though. Hopefully that'll be fixed soon mind! Also I love Dingwalls, in particular the Super J5. If ever I have the money for one I'm getting one!!! White, black guard, maple neck, black blocks and white headstock! Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.....

1.14's for me. Brain picks if I can find them. Always used a pick on bass, I find it more natural, which probably means I'm odd

Personally I love it Now for the american dad version please

[quote name='wateroftyne' post='1170496' date='Mar 21 2011, 11:28 AM']WTF? This is the most ridiculous thing I've ever seen anyone post on Basschat. No-one around here can afford a flat cap. The last one I'm aware of was burned for fuel during the winter.[/quote] [b]!!!![/b]
