  1. you are right, but has anyone under 30 heard of them now?
  2. Nah, it’s the Group flats (I emailed to ask). Far less treble than the cobalts, but a thick and chewy sound.
  3. Don’t forget the EB Group flatwounds too. Brilliant strings.
  4. I was just going to say that.
  5. I really like it. I like the toy like simplicity of it.
  6. This. Its an amazing pickup.
  7. I love Sonny T, but I do think of him as Prince’s bassist rather than CW’s! The OP song was co-written by Rob Harris of Jamiroquai. It’s a cracker.
  8. that’s just autocorrect and me not noticing.
  9. https://www.music-man.com/instruments/basses/joe-dart-ii Only 100 though…
  10. Can you post the name of the seller so they can be avoided?
  11. PSA - I currently have Covid and it has hit me hard. Until I have recovered I won't be offering to meet anyone or invite people into my home to try it. Unfortunately I quite like a significant minority of you people and wouldn't want you to be endangered. Hopefully normal service will resume in a week or 2.
  12. it’s not an uncommon modification. The downtuning metal guys have been doing it for years to get thicker strings through the posts.
  13. I like TI flats too. They also have the advantage of lasting at least 5 years so I'm happy to spend the money on them.
  14. I bet that hurts! What's wrong with a trimmer?
  15. Very useful thank you. I think I'm going to order a Sandberg - I've had my quote in and although the 12 month waiting will be very painful I will get exactly what I want. And it will turn up at about my 50th birthday.
  16. I'm in the process of getting a quote for a Superlight Lionel. It's not on the configurator but I know they offer far more options. Superlight shortscale - might even get under 6lb!!
  17. Quick look over my shoulder.... I married a JMJ type so I suppose I'll go for the classy one for a change
  18. Bump. I've removed the Mustang as a trade candidate due to the many reports of neck dive. So it's a Lionel or a sale.
  19. Is there such a thing as a Mustang that doesn't have neck dive? Almost every review I've read / watched seems to mention it. I'm wondering if I should just keep saving up for a Lionel.
