  1. This is a crazy price ... What a bass ... What a bargain!
  2. ... but my cup of tea. Love Ponty!
  3. I had one for a few years. Quite a nice bass in general terms. The active preamp was a bit ropey but overall it was good fun!
  4. Not everyone's taste but certainly mine. This was a huge influence on me. Jeff Berlin is one of my favourite players. I was lucky enough to spend a bit of time with Alan Holdsworth a few years ago... such a lovely, humble man. He was an absolutely astounding talent.
  5. Swoon... Be still my beating heart. Stunning and very tempting.
  6. I don't want to be 'that guy' but do we really need yet more Fender copies? (As good as DL's will undoubtedly be).
  7. I really like this idea. Why not?
  8. Stunning Tobias clone. Looks very high-end indeed. Lovely... good luck with the sale!
  9. Agree 100% regarding the Steinberger: one of the pinnacles of bass guitar design IMO. Disagree 100% regarding the 'amorphous' Spector description: one of the pinnacles of bass guitar design IMO (and yes, Warwick 'borrowed' the design). I'd buy this in a heartbeat if I had the funds.
  10. It was indeed due to a rogue batch of Mahogany and the fact that the demand for Jaydee basses outstripped the capacity for on-point QC (at that time). I had one of these during the late 80s and the neck developed a back bow which would rival a banana. The only bass that ever made me cry. I'm over it now.
  11. Fantastic singer and bassist. I loved Budgie back in the day. Healing thoughts go out to Burke; that final Budgie release could also be very interesting.
  12. Stunner... Love these sort of gig stories/ photos of basses.
  13. I think so. Mine was really nice overall but the pickup routing on the bridge pup was oversized and very sloppy (surprising given the CNC tech).
  14. I can totally relate: My experience with the flea was the same. Oddly enough, I found the pups much too 'dark' .
  15. Truly excellent all round... but never apologise for being Scottish!!! Loved it.
  16. Fabulous idea, a really unique thread. I'm not your guy but wait with baited breath to see how this goes!
  17. That is a killer bass right there!
  18. Beautiful flame ash on the natural finish, never seen that before on a Vigier. Great basses!
  19. Maybe it's one of those urban myths?
  20. I know that Ian Waller and Pete the Fish at Wal insisted that the dense and heavier Mahogany core was a prerequisite for 'that sound'. I'm guessing Chris May is on the same page?
  21. Beautiful! Fantastic basses.
  22. Fantastic basses! I owned a progress 3 deluxe; sublime design and build quality, wonderful playability and KILLER tone. Alas, at 11lbs my spine couldn't take it, so I had to move it on.
  23. Thanks! It really is special in the flesh, very tactile. Funnily enough, when it arrived and I removed it from the packaging my confused wife stated, "It's bent!! Send it back" lol🤣
  24. Sure thing!
