I am possibly looking at getting another Mustang, probably the P/J. However, the Sandberg Lionel nails the P aesthetic too, but it's twice the money at least.

The aesthetic of, what is now, the classic P design, just ticks all my boxes. I don’t own a P at the moment and I’m really down the short scale rabbit hole, but can’t stop looking at them, even though my JMJ Mustang nails that P tone.

I’ve been using passive basses exclusively for quite some time now. However, having tried out a few Sadowskys, I added one of their preamp pedals to my board, it just adds the right magic to lift the sound, without colouring it, which isn’t available in the amp’s eq. It is just 2 band and boost only, but I find that there’s already enough mid range in my basses, so I just need tweaks in the other ranges to achieve what I’m after. YMMV.

The Short Scale Bass Appreciation Society!
ezbass replied to Baloney Balderdash's topic in Bass Guitars
A faint sound wafted through the air. People turned their heads to make out what it was. Was it a foreign language or speaking in tongues? No, it was laughter - evil laughter! “Mwah, ha, ha!” -

For anyone who cares or is interested, Anderton's have a number of the Indian made, Chowny SWB Pros in stock, at £850. -
I'd be OK with that.

I’m really envious, would love to play in any band again* *Hyperbole, I do have certain red lines

Nice to see Ultravox getting some love recently. I always forget how much I like them. Anyway... Travelling Without Moving - Jamiroquai

To be clear, I was not likening @lozkerr to the the great Este, merely that Este is the top of the tree for bassface, not only in severity, but also in range. Mine always looks like I’m pretending to have no teeth, by sucking my lips in or a version of the peeved, Dave Gilmour. 2/10 for effort

Never, ever apologise for bass face. It’s a badge of honour we should wear when the moment arises. All hail Este Haim! I’m just 6’, medium build and have never felt more comfortable than with the Mustang I bought last year. My ‘Ray SS feels a little small, but looks OK. My custom, J shaped, 33” basses look huge on me now IMO.

My old ‘80s band covered RUTH and based cover on the OP version, although we used synth rather guitar for the motif. It appealed to me because of the fretless (our lead singer knew how to get me one side quickly 😆). I remembered it being easy musically, it was the harmony vocals that took the time (as ever). It made the set list, but didn’t seem to go over the way we thought it would, so we dropped it. It’d be a different story today I imagine.
