Hi Clarky, I dunno how good they are for slapping but for Rock n Punk I use Ernie Ball Regular Slinkys (50-105) and find them spot on. Cheers, Jon

Anyone on here snag it?

:ph34r: Did my Compacts ship today Alex? :brow: Jon edit:Spelling!

For the price and build quality difference compared to it's Orange cousin, it's a no brainer IMO. I certainly would if I could afford it! JTB

Yee and indeed Ha

Also if your speaker cabs have sensitive drivers in them then they will be more efficient which means louder too. I would suggest post this question/s in the appropriate thread in the "Ask an Expert - Barefaced Cabs" forum. Put all the info in there for Alex to see and I'm sure he'll put you straight as he certainly is the man around here for all things speaker shaped! Regards, JTB

Now there's a rig! Not mine, but I wish I had the readies and space to buy it [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Mesa-Boogie-Buster-Bass-Amp-and-4x10-cab_W0QQitemZ120430529096QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_MusicalInstr_Amplifiers_RL?hash=item1c0a380a48&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=65%3A3%7C66%3A2%7C39%3A1%7C240%3A1318%7C301%3A1%7C293%3A1%7C294%3A50"]*** eBay link here ***[/url]

If you're wanting extra grunt from a P pickup then I can highly recommend their Area 51 Stealth unit. It really does sound how they describe on the website. Cheers, JTB

I had a P bass with a Quarter Pounder pickup in it and the secret weapon for getting classic sounds with it was putting flatwound strings on the bass. Absolutely fantastic IMO. JTB

I was thinking of just a neck swap on a Jazz bass Just imagine a CIJ Jazz body with a CIJ '70 RI P neck.... GAS attack!!!

Time to do a 'Frankenbass' Clarky?

I would highly recommend the SD Classic/Hot Stacks for Jazz to go in your bass with your P pickup. They are really good sounding units and are humbucking p'ups. Cheers, JTB

What about a 1 off Fender CS Masterbuilt jobbie to your [i]exact[/i] spec's? That would be very special.

+1 for OBBM and his cables. [url="http://www.bassic.co.uk/"]Here's his website[/url] Top man and top cables, you can't go wrong. JTB

In my case I printed off loads of pictures from Fender's website (all the same size pics you see) and made an old fashioned collage which was then scanned. Ancient and old school I know but it took me back to my yoof! JTB
