Damn I was eyeing this up when I first went on BD, it didn't stay on there long! I really prefer the look of the 2nd gen over the first ones, they've managed to do their own thing without getting weird Very cool man, you're very lucky indeed!
-
Quick question for you guys/girls; is the V series body smaller than a P-Bass? I've got an EBMM Sterling and I very much enjoy the dinky body shape
-
Maybe common place but I thought this was a bit fly...?

Haha yeah for sure! But it's listed as "Sold" on BD so I just assumed The Gallery just bought it and are punting it themselves? I did notice that too but I think it's the way the light's hitting it - The inlays appear to have the same dark streaks. I need to get a life I think! -
I'm hoping to be in the market for a nice addition when funds allow in the coming months, loosely keeping an eye on the classified section here and the 'bay, Bass Direct etc. Kept checking back on a really tidy Ultra Jazz that BD had; though it sold a few days ago https://www.bassdirect.co.uk/bass_guitar_specialists/Jazz_USA_4_Ultra.html I feel these are pretty overpriced brand new but this looks to be mint and was listed for £1399, pretty good I thought. Now it looks like The Bass Gallery have bought it and are selling the exact bass for £1750? Photos are taken under totally different lighting but i'm 100% sure it's the same bass. https://thebassgallery.com/collections/bass/products/fender-american-ultra-jazz-bass Thought it was kind of interesting... I guess the search continues!

UBD (Upgraded Bass Day): Fretless Fender Jazz with coated fretboard
Ramsay777 replied to roman_sub's topic in Bass Guitars
Very nice! Is that finish Candy Cola? I've got a Am. Standard from around the same time that started life as a Candy Cola, it's now Pearl White with a J-Retro pre. -
Wow. What a beauty. Didn't stick around long by the looks of it either! -
So I plugged straight in and like you say, I'm gaining pretty much nothing by using my amp in the way that I am. Recording fine but sounding a bit lifeless, time to look at some plug-ins. Been considering the HX Stomp which might be a good solution for me with the amp and cab sims. Thanks for the pointers folks
-
Yeah it's just the same, so I think it could be to do with the input im using... Just ordered an adapter that will let me plug into that side so we'll see! To be honest Si, I never really thought to even try it like that- just figured that I use this amp for gigging and practicing so thought it'd make sense to use it for this too, am I taking the long way around? Not to mention, my PC has seen far better days haha, crashes every so often as it is, I'm not sure it'd handle me throwing in plugins etc
-
I'm set to "mic" level on the DI as i'm currently into the mic input on the Scarlett, tried it on "line" one time and it didn't like it haha Just thinking though, I could set it on "line" and get and XLR - Jack cable to plug into Input two, also set on "line"?
-
So I've been trying to get into a bit of recording as I've had a Focusrite Scarlett Solo lying around since ages... Musicman Sterling > Basic Pedal Board > Genz Benz Shuttlemax 12.2 > Scarlett Solo > Reaper DAW I'm finding my signal is way too quiet and I'm sure I'm doing something stupid, I've got an XLR from the DI out on the rear of my amp, connecting to Input 1 (figured that kind of makes sense, XLR - XLR?) Any help much appreciated. Cheers folks

Some beautiful basses in here. I had an older red Euro 5LX for a couple of years and sold it a while back - Sounded incredible but it was a heavy beast and the 5th string was surplus to requirements. Wasn't a big fan of the bridge either - pretty sure there was no intonation screws, but it looks like the current ones do? Gotta admit I'm finding myself looking at the Tiger Eye Euro 4LT a lot this past few days... Ticks a lot of boxes for me!
-
Wow that looks incredible! Between the Thunder III and the Ibanez Musician I feel im GAS'ing for a neck-through 80s bass - despite having never even seen one in person let alone played one. The 80s was (just) before my time. Really cool man.
-
I didn't realise neck-through Stingrays existed until a few days ago, looks amazing!
-
Hey folks, some beautiful basses in here! I took this for another thread but here's my 2014 Sterling HH in Trans Gold - Still as clean as the day I got it. Gotta admit I keep finding myself looking at Stingray Specials this past few days...
-
Some awesome rigs in this thread. Here's mine currently; EBMM Sterling HH > under-contruction pedalboard > Genz Benz ShuttleMax 12.2 > Ashdown ABM410. Plenty, though I wouldn't mind adding an ABM210 for modular set up...
-
Digging up an old thread here but I was doing a bit of searching for myself, I emailed him about this time last year and he got back to me saying he was planning more stock in the new year but I didn't hear anything more. There's currently a T-70 for sale on the forum if you're still looking for something. I'm after a Grand Tarkin, just messaged through the website there to see if I have any joy.
-
Cheers guys, email sent this evening so we'll see what they come back with!
-
For those that have been in contact with Sandberg via email, did you use - [email protected]? That's the only one I can find, I'm thinking about giving them a shout once I finally sell my Telecaster and I want to discuss some different colour options....
-
Think I bought my Am Standard Jazz about then. Got it with 20% off in a closing down sale, possibly Reverb? For about £680 BRAND NEW. Still got it, great bass.
-
I've never seen one of those before, looks awesome!! Is that a guitar pickup in the bridge? Love the 1+3 Headstock
-
Maybe a weird opinion but if that had a lower cutaway a bit like Paul Gilbert's Fireman sig it could look even more awesome.... No? 😎
-
I'll keep you posted once it arrives man!
-
Been after a drive pedal for a while, nearly bought a SA Aftershock a couple of times but went off it due to having faaar too many options for me! Came across the EHX Battalion Nano the other night, really liked what I saw and heard, figured at £85 delivered it would be worth the punt.

Read through most of this thread the past few days, I think I'm really GAS'ing for my own as a result! I have a pal with a 6-string T-Series, doesn't seem to be many of them about but it is very nice indeed. Couple questions maybe you guys could shed some light on, I'm sure I'll be in touch with them at some point in the future! - Are the "painted" ones finished with nitro? I would assume the relic'd ones are? As awesome as their relic work is I dunno if I could suffer the upcharge... At least if it was finished in nitro anyway it would age nicely in time. Seems they can do a few things out-with the configurator - Anyone any experience of getting a custom colour? Really like this pink one MarloweDK has. Seen a couple with a reverse headstock too, an acquired taste for sure but I think it looks very cool. Awesome to have so many options.

Peach Guitars have got it on pre-order for £600. Always felt a bit intimidated by these next gen multi-fx unit with all the insane options but im gonna keep an eye on this!
