    Feedback for Ordep

    pst62 replied to HazBeen's topic in Feedback

    Bought a Seymour Duncan SPB 2 off of Ordep. The bloke is a total pleasure to deal with, great communication and quick delivery. Thanks again mate. Regards, Pete

    I never said that the Gibson Thunderbird I tried back in 2012 was bad. I just didn't think it was worth the extra £700, after I'd tried the EPI Classic Pro. In fact the Gibson would be here now if the Epi hadn't been there at the time. IIRC I'm sure Epiphone stopped their Classic Pro run in 2015 at Gibson's request, because it was denting their sales?

    I've heard that Epi are on so much of a go slow that they won't be shipping anything before January.

    Which onel was it? If it was the bolt on neck model, they are terrible and feel nothing like a Thunderbird.

    This ^ exactly! Back in 2012 I went into Hartnoll's in Taunton with all intent and purpose of buying a Gibson Thunderbird, they were £1199 at that time, and like SteveXFR, after the Gibson I tried out an Epiphone, this model being their newly released Classic Pro Thunderbird IV, neck through with the Gibson pups (£499) so little was the difference, (the Gibson had a slightly thinner neck) I saved myself from paying an extra £700 for basically a Truss rod cover with "Gibson" on it!

    This man is absolutely right. and I know because one of his looms sits under that pickguard.

    It'll be the same run as mine then, made in China, the first two numbers of the serial denotes year of build. This is mine now, only the body and pup remain.

    Hi Mass Bridge or BBOT?

    Is yours one of latest (2017) 70's CV's or the 2012-2015 series? I love the pup in my 2014, lots of low end warmth.

    I wish they'd done that in 1975.

    R.I.P. MB1. Sincere condolences to his family and friends.

    Isn't even saying "He who shall not be named" illegal?

    He never had any to lose! The only member of that band with any grip on reality was Michael Anthony!

    Just like PaulThePlug I'd go with a Black Pickguard (NorthWest's are quality) but if it has to be one of the ones in your post, I'd go for the top one.

    It wouldn't surprise me if the real reason is back problems, 40 years of being almost bent double must have taken some toll!

    I don't like coming across this sort of thing on ebay. Neck and body purposefully mismatched. Ok the neck seems a genuine 3rd run 60's CV series, (2017 revised Squier logo) The serial indicates August 2020. The only Red bodies Squier produced in the CV's range were Fiesta Red in the 1st CV run back in 2008. The only Metallic Red bodies Squier produced were in their original nasty Affinity range back in the early 2000's. Someone is gonna get stung here! https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/324745876923?hash=item4b9c5cd5bb:g:NycAAOSwZR5hEt46

    I bought a Seymour Duncan SPB-3 off of Vin, the transaction went very smoothly, and all communication was prompt and spot on. Vin is a great bloke to deal with. Thanks again Vin.

    Crap! But no doubt it'll get the overhype treatment, like everything else they've done!
  20. pst62
    I'll take these please. P M me details

    Back in 1983 JV Precision's were classed as lower end basses, I bought mine brand new for £240 inc case. Oh how I wish I'd kept it!
  22. pst62
    Even better then Dave, because I've had both in the past, and the VM was better than the Standard PJ, having said that, the standard wasn't a bad bass at all, I just didn't like the J pup.
  23. pst62
    It sounds like the Affinity is now of the quality that their Standard PJ was 15 years ago.

    I bought a Bourns solderless wiring loom with the 0.1uF tone cap off of John early in July to replace the one in my Sqiuer CV 70's Precision. I've got to say the man is a pleasure to deal with, and that £23.50 is an absolute bargain, the loom poo's all over the stock Squier one, giving far greater definition when the tone is rolled almost off and a much rounder, less harsh tone when fully on. Well happy customer here, Thank you John. I apologise for the delay in posting feedback, but I've just recently had the time to do the mods I wanted to to my bass.

    You know, I've just been thinking that myself.
