What is this............rehearsal that you speak off?

my old '75 P bass sounds brilliant with whatever. I love it with new strings, grindy and growly, then as they wear it still sounds the same but with less twang. Eventually I break one and change the whole set. My hofner cont 500/1 sounds fab with flats. Utterly perfect in fact.I haven't done enough gigs with my bravewood Sting replica to know what it sounds like with old strings, although it did get showered with rum and coke at a gig and it killed the strings and it wounded awful but I suspect that was the rum n coke.

Police tribute here and I'm going to see 'The Secret Police' very soon. For people who say, 'I don't really get tribute bands' I don't really get average originals bands, who can't write decent songs. Remember, entertainment

The modern crop of Vintage guitars with the Wilkinson hardware are all very good. Pickups are particularly good. I have a Geoff Whitehorn signature and it's great

I've got a CC2X with blues. It sounds ace. I don't use it, it sits in the studio in the corner. Occasionally when I plug it in I think, damn I should be using this. But I stick with my WKZ Little Devil 1x12 combo. (handbuilt by Mr Martin Kidd . The Cornford designer and former bandmate)

The walnut bass sounds slightly glassier. Much like how a maple boarded strat/tele compares to rosewood. Both sounded great though

great player

here's some photos

I had one of the lawsuit style basses. Used it in a Jam tribute. It was excellent. Looked great and sounded very good. Wish I hadn't sold it.

I don't know about the serial numbers but I've seen 2 of these and they weren't numbered. Either way I only paid just over £1500 so limited or not, it's still a good price. Used it last night and it does sound good. Totally different to my P basses but still loads of clout. Looks great too. Lots of sustain and a nice growl

yes, having a cuddle lol

well I've got it. It's lovely. Very well made and a good weight. Got a gig Sunday, so It'll get a proper thrashing then, in the meantime it's on the sofa next to me

not coming today, there was a mix up in the shop, but it should come tomorrow

I'm still waiting for the courier to turn up

ah, I saw your one for sale, sadly too late as it was sold. It comes today

[quote name='bassman344' timestamp='1397479564' post='2424264'] I had one of these and they are gorgeous. Body just too small for my liking but sound wise was incredible and the neck was lush. I owned number NB12345 [/quote] was yours the special edition? (great serial number BTW)

Thanks to good ole Mark at bass direct. All maple body and gloss white with chrome hardware. Very Synchronicity
