I have to say I didn’t know much about G&L for a long time until tried an SB1 ages ago and fell in love. I’ve always liked P basses but find them a bit agricultural feel-wise, compared to say a more boutique version like the Celinder I tried. I like the slimmed down body, custom bridge and anodised pickguard - it just feels like a really well considered evolution of the P bass, which I suppose was the point. The quartersawn neck with bi-cut truss rod is lovely.

I’d be more concerned with the weight 👍🏼

Looks like one of these https://abm-guitarpartsshop.com/ABM-GUITAR-PARTS/Single-Bridges/Bass/ABM-3710/ABM-3710b-Black::238.html

Very well thanks, hope you’re well too! At least the cab arrived safely.

Another reason why I’d never buy something from someone who asks the buyer to sort their own courier! Sounds ridiculous. Fingers crossed for you!

I feel that BC is better today than it’s ever been. 👍🏼

I learned slap by jamming along with the baselines by rap pioneers like Grandmaster Flash and Funky 4+1. Although often sampled by similar artists, many of the best tunes had live baselines played over a groove and were amazing for practicing fills and space.

Indeed, and you'd better have a red carpet handy. Let me know when and where and I'll let my driver know. Ideally the venue will have helicopter landing if possible.

I'd be up for a NE bash too

That’s brilliant - Ashdown have a superb reputation here for supporting their customers. 👏

One of my all time faves. I absolutely love the laid back groove on ‘make me wanna holler’ some of the bass fills towards the end of the track are just perfect. Also love the bit at the end of ‘faggot’ where it sounds like she starts to play over the rear pickup.

Sounds like a Warwick. No distortion/drive necessary.

That sort of growl comes from the bass, if we're referring to the same thing. Got samples? (referring to OP post)

Thanks, deleted and banned yesterday after several reports.

Thanks!

I think the OP is talking about bass guitars 😂 How about a wardrobe guitar hanger? Instant ‘closet classic’ and pretty hidden away - also if they’re found they aren’t in cases so much harder to nick. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Closet-Guitar-hanger-CGH01-Hanger/dp/B00A3L4L6U

Wrap the cases in cling film all over and several layers to stop any moisture getting in.

I mean it’s not cheap but it’s probably what you’d expect for a Fullerton made instrument, the fact it’s a few inches shorter than a normal scale bass doesn’t mean it’s going to be much cheaper.

I’ve always used extra light strings so extra light flats just felt right. If I try playing anything approaching 45 I feel like my hands are numb!

@Ashdown Engineering get him!

Hold on are we talking about a twisted neck or one that’s got too much relief?
