  1. I love my Lodestone Primal Artist. It isn't as pretty, but has seen off 3 Shukers an ACG and an Overwater amongst other How about the Sue Ryders as well ?
  2. I agree, I would expect to have to change strings and do some tinkering with the action to get the bass to feel how I want, but it would seem a bit harsh to say that a bass was bad if it is just in need of a set up. Is it tone or buzzy electrics or some other issues which make people call them bad ?
  3. Hi, I've currently been doing some research into a new guitar and have been checking out Strats by Fender and G&L etc. On almost every site I looked at, the advice was that the G&L guitars were better made and were consistently good straight out of the factory and that you had to play quite a lot of Fender's to find a good one. Presumably this would also apply to Fender bass guitars. What have peoples experience been in buying new Fender basses, what is it that distinguishes a good one from a bad one , is it tone, is it finish , could you buy a MIM that was a better bass than a USA etc? Is there anything to particularly look out for especially if your LGS only has a couple of Fenders to test against each other ?
  4. Thanks for the offers guys, but I would rather put cash to it and go for an American strat. Regards, Ed
  5. Bought a pedal of Zig, fast delivery and exactly as described.
  6. Hi, Fender Precision Factory Special Run in Seafoam Green . This bass is mint and plays like a dream with the thin jazz neck and is shod with a set of LaBella Deep Talkin flatwounds really reluctant sale It comes with a non Fender gig bag.

  7. I bought Karlfers off him and I haven't put it down since I got it. They are awesome basses really well made with a dream neck.
  8. Bought Karl's precision deluxe.Great guy, great bass, couldn't be happer.
  9. Hi, what is the string spacing and could you give some more dimensions on the fretboard width. Regards, Ed
  10. Bump for a great guitar. I actually sold a £1000 Fender Stevie Ray Vaughan Signature Strat and kept one of these as it sounded better.
  11. All my trades on basschat have been a very pleasurable experience except one where I arranged to meet a guy in London who then backed out after I'd paid £50 for a train ticket. A valuable lesson learned !
  12. I thought Sue Ryder P's were the only ones to consider !
