    Hi BCers Got lovely Fender American Standard 2013 today enjoying it loads but sender put some much sellotape around the edges of the case that it took 15 mins to remove but has left sticky residue everywhere Any products recommendations to remove the sticky but not attack the vinyl of the case?

    I watched on my iMac which is great for bass - the Noble did sound more how I like bass to sound but as you said minimal - as most of the guys said on the clip - so JDI or Ampeg might be more of a proposition- also imagine losing a Noble at a gig! If I was a pro bassist maybe. The Sean Hurley Noble vids are good but he’d make anything sound good as it’s technique more than anything

    I agree if money was no object then Noble but I did see another video on that guys channel looking at the Ampeg and it does look versatile- more research needed
  7. Duroc17
    Blind test I picked the noble blind won’t say which it is but the Radial JDI at a quarter the price sounded good too

    it sounds amazing too on last concert film - he also has a Harmony H22 that sounds mint - i'd like both

    Howdy sir, just bought a US Standard 2013 (awaiting NBD) and usually had been either La Bellas or TI flats but after seeing so many good reviews for GHS Precision flats - i've just bought some from Stringsdirect - Did you find them sticky - in rehearsal never do but have done when gigging - also how do you find the tension compared to your Standard with 760FLs on?

    Nice brave move - Please tell me this now makes the bass sound like Sean Hurley? I think that video has the best P tone ever - he's such a tasteful player - I want to do this but i'm afraid i'd slip and ruin bass 🙂 :-0

    woof

    yes i've found them to be good right up the neck for me

    that's a beauty of a P - i got a lovely aged white gone cream CIJ from GAS STATION - had to spend cash with luthier to sort neck bend and electronics which they refunded me - so agreed should spend more time sorting before sending but good prIces and really good selection of stock
  14. Duroc17
    that's a beauty GLWTS

    Thanks Thunderpaws - I agree these are ace! I've really connected with this bass and been playing it everyday - i keep picking it up - it's become number one bass - it's not got the power of my custom build who's neck is more forgiving - the CIJ is more precise which the clue is in the name but there's something about the neck that i love - so good like you say to get around it I also had a white PB62 that had aged to a lovely cream - that was superb - but this one is the one!...for now (damn you GAS)

    Tele Bass luthier custom build by James at Electric Relic Co for sale. I had this made by Electric Relic to my spec. A lot of thought (too much really) has gone into this bass. I wanted a Tele bass with body contour in a natural colour. Very hard to come by and originals now go for silly money. I’ve decided to list here as finally found a natural PB70 CIJ after owning a superb cream one - but after missing out on bids got one from Bass Bros. SO now it's not getting the love it deserves - i've got the custom thing out of my system Featuring a lovely biscuit colour that looks like roasted maple and aged to perfection. Maple neck super smooth with chunky but not baseball bat dimensions- no fret sprout and intonation all good from the original type bridge. No fake decal but you’re free to add one. Nitro finish. An alder body to keep weight down to approx 8.5lbs so a lot lighter than the original Tele bass. String through body. Strung with la Bella low tension flats. Custom aged pick guard. Cloth wiring and CTS pots and the secret sauce is a 0.10 orange capacitor and handmade overwound (7500k) Fralin pickup which gives this that Motown thump and bigger output than any P I’ve played, it’s a dream to play and sounds immense, warm and huge. ADDED pic without guard This bass attracts a lot of attention at gigs and had great compliments about the sound from other bassists. id prefer you come and play it and are happy before buying - it’s a lovely thing. Comes with a brand new Gator soft case Also can take stickers off if you want they won’t mark the guard. All aftermarket parts except Squier CV neck and tuners (I asked for this as played one before and like the profile) which cost £800 then £450 to put together and art of making it look so great (happy to supply invoice as proof). So I’m taking a big hit on what I paid so price is firm. Also shipping only to UK. PayPal friend fam preferred. Get yourself a brilliantly luthier made custom bass at more than a third of the price of a Fender Would consider swap for JMJ Mustang or Vintera Mustang or funky short scale to back up my CIJ for palm muting vibes

    Added guards prob will take pup guard off but bridge has got foam wedged in. Great

    Ah sorry didn’t have my readers on. I’m not sure tbh

    It’s based on the 1970 model - so 70 - you sometimes see PB62 etc so it refers to the original year that spec came out. You’re right there is something righteous about them. First gig last night, my guitarist lived it. Was big round and fat tone
  23. Duroc17
    Howdy i'll have these - they're precision ones not jazz yeah? look like it - can you DM me payment details and i'll send ta
  24. Duroc17
    I debated for about 10 mins as I’ve been wanting one like this for ages but it took 10 mins because I’d spent a chunk on my custom build and just bought a mustang the week before. But I thought sod it, I’m glad I did been playing it every day since

    My band West on Colfax did a Nartowboat session first track came out this week. It was very very cramped and the set up by the engineer took about 2 hours (plus an hour chatting first) and as I was crammed into the corner - I was in first and in the boat the longest (I get a little claustrophobic but I was kinda fun so stayed calm) we only did a first take of all three tunes and the engineer talked us into keeping this one. You’ll need headphones to hear the bass and you may notice I’m playing quite high up the neck - that’s because Andy the guitarist next to me was so packed in - I literally could not get the room play over the pick up - Andy’s leg and playing arm were brushing me the whole time. I like him but he’s not my type 😅 anyways I hope you enjoy - I only have a Facebook link - they do this and make a yearly CD to raise money for Cabcer Research https://fb.watch/eaazqSJaue/?mibextid=qZdngE&fs=e&s=cl
