  1. Bump and a price drop to £100 That's over £100 less than Bass Direct! Treat yourselves - you deserve it, because you are bassists, and thus wonderful!
  2. Mr Wailer bought my Mark Bass Vintage Preamp. Very quick payment and let me know the minute it arrived safely - that's always welcome with the too-often terrible service we get from couriers and so on these days. Hope you enjoy it!
  3. Such a brilliant bit of kit. I've had mine since they were launched and I've never regretted getting it. It's the heart of my home studio. I know some people are holding out for the L6 Stadium - but so far they have no plans for a rack unit of it because they are unconvinced that a rack would sell as many this time round. The L6 main guy has said so repeatedly - and if it ever comes it will probably be £2000 + foot controller. So this is a real bargain.
  4. I have never regretted buying one. My biggest problem with it is that I like flats and rounds on it and I can't afford to get another one so I don't have to keep changing strings!
  5. Yes - either a Sandberg Lionel PJ or a Jim Deacon P. I play them a lot more than my long scale basses at the moment.
  6. Balls. Prices back up. Wish I'd spotted this earlier.
  7. Back on sale. Price drop to only £160 including UK delivery. Not looking for trades as I've seen something shiny I want, but don't be afraid of making an offer, I won't be offended.
  8. I had a P bass from that series and it was a very nice instrument. The bodies are a little thinner than on a full USA one, but that means a slightly lower weight and I really like that. The necks on the Precision version were also a little thinner front to back. I only sold mine because at the time I was almost always playing a J type so it was gathering dust. The only think I'd upgrade on them would be the tuning heads - they are the same as a MIM and although serviceable, improvements are available. I put Hipshot Ultralites on mine and got the weight down further in the process.
  9. Just checking - is your bass active and have you swapped the battery? What else is in your signal chain?
  10. Mark Bass Vintage Preamp is lovely.
  11. Mine are all shorties! Two just P, and one PJ. One P and the PJ have flats, and the other has rounds.
  12. If you want one then yes. If you don't then no. I find a J more versatile overall but sometimes, for my ears, only a P will do. I doubt the audience cares though!
  13. There is something called "Feet Finder" but I'm not sure shoes are involved much!
