One is going to be a case queen, the other is going to join Amber as part of the gig rig. All my Spectors except this blue/maple have a name. I'm looking for a name to join Quint, Amber, Peacock and Zebra.

I'll just leave this (Ebony and Maple pair) here for now... ...pending tweaks, Preamp transplants, stuff...

I didn't take a pic but Amber's new bridge (not pictured below) weighed in at 188g. I've amended the calculations to reflect that. It's all installed now and she still rocks. No A/B comparison as I changed the strings, polished the frets with the FRTLZR up to 7000 grade (lovely job, if do I say so myself), detuned and set up to Eb Standard with EXL170 Balanced Tension 45, 60, 80, 107 strings to a nice low but not-too-low action. She's pure gig rig now and really sweet.

I'm going to see The Warning tomorrow supported by Marisa & the Moths and Sophie Lloyd.

It's cheaper than a service.

That's a great deal for a stunning bass. -
Fender innovation at its peak.

That is mesmerising. Wow.

Laney just sent me an offer of £599.

You could try mine so that you can make doubly sure that you don’t...

He's from Montana. IMA is the most active and vocal Spector endorsee there is (not a Spector in the pic).

Lakland has better resale value and are easier to sell generally, if you need to move them on. G&L can be a tough sell and depreciate heavily. This can be good or bad depending upon where you are in the buying/selling chain.

This is off my '03 Euro 4 this morning... There's a new bridge incoming. 538g-195g = 343g. That'll take Amber down below 4kg.

Laney has got an amp especially for you https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/335754368078?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=rpbRlok9T1C&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=6MnoMIQiQQC&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY I've got one. It's right up your street,@Beedster

Is it any good for metal? Probably... https://metalinjection.net/news/nathan-east-confesses-to-playing-on-one-of-judas-priests-album-in-place-of-bassist-ian-hill?fbclid=IwY2xjawJo4y9leHRuA2FlbQIxMQABHtmcamQRvYoMv9qgV4OzjdYtqL9OnaSUgYmZ7_zpGdZm7hk4tM5Kc0T5-UZU_aem_gysVhpuD3Pt9Y_ZzEItZ2Q

It's good to see Laney doing a quality analogue head. They're going head to head (Boom, tish) with the new GK Legacy analogue monsters that are due soon. I must say that it looks better from behind. The FET/Valve pre in my Laney is outstanding. And although the 500 has enough power, think about the difference between the GK 700RBii and the 1000RBii. Different heads for different applications, one being a cleaner head and the other being voiced for more grind. Maybe there's enough of a difference in voice.
-
@Basszilla, alright, mun? Tell me you didn't sell the Euro 4. 🤔
-
I thought Duff used GK amps. Boom, tish! I’m here all week, ladies and gentlemen.
-
Lots of likes. Thanks for those, folks. -
That's a really good point. 3x ECC83 @ £23 = £69 1x 12BH7 @ £26 8x KT88 @ £40 = £320 Total= £415 in valves. That's based on JJs, you could go 8x Gold Lion KT88 @ £80 = £640. Plus some spendy preamp valves taking the valves up to a total of £800+ Then you've got the labour on top at prob £200. It's a veritable bargain. It's cheaper for me to buy this than to revalve the one I have.

I'm going to give Ashdown a shout out but in a weird way because it got me where I needed to be and where I am now. In about 2006 I bought a new ABM600 head and 410 to replace a Trace 410 (or was it a 412???!!) combo that burnt out. The Ashdown broke down intermittently and was really difficult to get a decent sound out of. Fair play, they took it back, fixed it and returned it no hassle. When I came back I thought I'd get the sound I wanted but it just wasn't happening. This led me through searches to find Bassworld, which led to me discovering what DI preamp pedals do, it enabled me to sell the Ashdown rig and buy a GK RB700ii rig. And ultimately Bassworld became Basschat in May '07, and that's how I got here.

Where's the bass made?
