  1. I did the opposite some years ago. Stuck a P neck on a J body. They're compatible with each other if we're talking about Fender/Squier.
  2. And it's not a battery issue right?
  3. Do you mind if I ask why not?
  4. Same for me other than I have 3 basses.
  5. There's a lot of truth in this. I meant to type more alike than different. Edited my post.
  6. Based on the dopamine hit I get from every bass I try in a store there's truth to this. I want them all πŸ˜‚ When viewed philosophically though a bass is essentially just two pieces of wood (neck thru and set necks excepted) attached with a few screws and then seasoned with some more pieces of metal and some magnets. They're all more alike than they're different. This mindset helps me to stop buying more 😁
  7. Congrats on your purchase. I'm curious though how many non-Fender basses you've tried/owned?
  8. Looks great,any specs please? Knob functions neck measurements string spacing at bridge etc...
  9. I doubt Cort put a passive tone circuit on those.
  10. I bought one of these Tanglewood made Overwaters used from Richtone a few years back and was very impressed. I sent it back however as it was insanely heavy.Shame production on them is no more.
  11. I need to go have a lie down 😁
  12. You're spoilt for choice in that area πŸ™‚
  13. WOW!!! I'm speechless,£7m??? 😧
  14. I played your bass in Rose Morris on Denmark Street when they first got it in,maybe 3 months ago give or take. I really liked the fit finish and general feel,and I mean a LOT! Sound is subjective but it did at least sound like a Jazz to my ear. Job well done Cort. Visually I don't get on with clear pickguards but ignore that as that's only my personal taste speaking.The maple fingerboard and matched headstock look great in person however to me. Enjoy your new bass ☺️
  15. Would be interesting to see what this bass actually sells for. It's had 2 offers already.
  16. Same here. Breaks my heart though that I don't get on with the string spacing.
  17. Agreed. I was "chased" out of Guitar Guitar just last week by a young would-be slap-bass player who was set up to demo a bass literally less than 3 metres from where I was quietly noodling. He was loud and sounded awful. Bad marks to both him and to the staff for not separating us. The Epsom branch is huge so there was no need. Rant over,back to the topic πŸ˜‚
  18. Without wishing to throw the proverbial cat amongst the pigeons I've found scale length not to be a factor with regards to decent sounding B strings. Design,build quality and neck pocket tightness seems to be more influential but I'm no expert on the science. I've tried Dingwalls in the past and think they sound good however πŸ‘
  19. A Fender with a decent low B in my experience is a case of trying several. I lucked out with my Mexican Player Plus Jazz V. I don't blame the 34" scale either as I have two Warwick fivers with excellent low B strings.
  20. Does anybody know Pino's height? I saw him live in 2012 as part of the D'Angelo tour at the time and he simply dwarfed everybody on stage.
  21. Why did I have to click on this... 🀀🀀🀀🀀🀀 I thought all active Anaconda basses utilised an 18v pre. Seems I was wrong.
  22. I've been a part of threads that may have gone in a direction I don't agree with also and in those instances I simply unfollowed. Every opinion is valid though,you can't stop that.
  23. Perfectly describes many basses I've tried in stores from many different brands πŸ‘Œ
