Hello to you all. Can you help me please? I keep reading about flat wound strings. Are they better, and do they make a difference in the sound of the bass? Why do people prefer them? Sorry all basic stuff but I am that new to the bass. Thanks Mike

Cor Blimey, I've only gone and bought another!!!!!!!!!!!! Just been and got a lovely Fender USA P Bass Deluxe. It's delicious. I obviously didn't read the site disclaimer, but this is my last, honest????????????????

Nice one Jerry. I still haven't fully got to grips with mine yet, and, I am still a very beginning bass player, although a complete convert and really hope to get in a band one day. I am currently interested in a Fender USA P Bass Deluxe. Do you think it is worth spending the dosh on it or will the L-2000 do the job just as well. best wishes Mike

Hello Jerry Let me know how you get on with the L2000 after gigging it. I had to look at a video as well because I couldn't work it out. I am really new to the bass and found all of the switches confusing but think I have got them sorted now. I am just learning Mustang Sally and it seems to suit it very well. Enjoy your gig, thanks for your feedack and thanks to all you others who helped me out. I am not used to the site yet but I will get there. Mike

Hello Jerry My current fav is a delicious G&L Tribute L2000!!!! It's lovely with a wonderful top and nice maple board. I see you have one as well what do you think of yours? Thank you for your welcome. Mike

Can anybody help me please? I have replied to a couple of ads but I haven't had any replies. How/where do I get access to the replies? Do they come to my e-mail or will they come back as an answer on the actual ad? Thank you, confused of Oxfordshire!!!!!!!!!!!!???????????

Thank you all for my very nice welcome. Yes, I do seem to have aquired a lot of instruments in a short time, but that is what I seem to do and guess what? I have my eye on another so I will soon reach 834!!!!!!!!!! I am not one of the Leicestershire Vickers I don't think. I am one the Darlington Vickers who now lives in Oxfordshire. best Mick

Hello to you all. I have recently joined Bass Chat after just taking up the bass. I am now totally obsessed and have aquired four lovely basses. [list=1] [*]Fender Mex Jazz [*]Gibson SG short scale [*]G&L Tribute L2000 [*]Squier Precision Bass Special [/list] Is there any hope for me, or does bass aquisition syndrome just get worse? Best wishes to you all Molecatcher Mick
