Aye they are very expensive, but, if they sound as good as they do on the Element (I haven’t played through one in the flesh) then they are very good. Agreed with @Wolverinebass Back to the bag, £200 is very top end I think everyone can agree. Lamanta make some beautiful stuff, but, this is standard. i am sure it will be quality tho like most things made by/associated with DG
-
So as darkglass don’t make this product, it’s not a thread about Darkglass being expensive technically is it 🥳🤓🤗
-
As an example - I am not sure I would call the Tech21 DP3X or the PSA 2.0 basic circuits - they are decently priced for what they do
-
It’s not just components used in it though, it’s R&D, premises, machines/equipment, staff wages etc etc. I think the Tech21 stuff is keenly priced, plus for the most part it’s bombproof, and DG stuff is well made with great customer service, although I agree they are on the pricier side
-
Crikey - just seen the trough still do-able tho
-
Depending what is underneath the block - prolly an easy job relatively speaking with another full PG over it
-
Functional and characterful
-
It really is not that bad - I quite like it

Tech21 dUg Ultrabass 1000

Do it i do!!! -
I get your point - but unless I am massively wrong it will still be able to go straight to desk or amp so long as you have the correct cables? that was more the point I was trying to say

Your best (and worst!) bass gear purchases of 2021?

Plunge router -
Nah mate - there is a DI out - don’t be fooled by it not having a 3 pin plug - the ‘out’ can be line or instrument level
-
It looks the beans - and his whole set up is just mega
-
Allparts are great as are mighty mite - all fit respective bodies including Fender ones
-
One of the best best best out there. I use it AND the CaliCB great price point GLWTS
-
Me too - Most mornings - normally as I check BC…..
-
It’s a finish - that’s it i cannot understand why Turdburst is liked at all - but it’s available. The modern part about sandberg is the shape since 2015, because they had to change under ‘gentle’ pressure. Otherwise they have been going 35 years - plenty time for them to look worn.
-
For a shop made one - Sandberg, Sandberg, Sandberg. or has been said - get a decent blank body like Mighty Mite, All Parts and create your own relic from scratch - best thing I did for my P
-
Sandbergs do their sig basses right - they are based on a standard model - but the pick up placement is slightly different and chosen by the artist, finish/ageing/vibration/heat treatment/neck profile etc - subtle but very real differences. The MarloweDK is an absolute stonking jazz bass and I think can work out cheaper than a ‘regular’ bass with the same treatments, plus they can often do the sig but in your colour choice
-
Defo bitsa - decent body - wood or Status graphite neck - choose your own rest of parts - it’ll be the one you like best
-
Imagine all the BN58 is (and they are very good) but better, clarity, punch, definition, responsiveness, articulation - pick or finger playing. They make me smile when I play them, and they will defo cut through nicely
-
Lindy’s and Lollar’s are very good, but they (in general) are more in the classic old school slightly softer P bass sound if you get my drift. I’ll give you another from left field if you want Seymour Duncan APB-1 - not oft used - but awesome pick ups
-
I have the 58’s - best things ever - no disrespect to the Bare knuckles 58s which are very good, but they are better even still. Jaime is good on email and he doesn’t hear the phone ring whilst working winding, but replies at the end of the day. Have a chat with him as he can tailor the wind you want from an existing model.
