  1. I'm so pleased I'm not the only bassist that experiences this. I genuinely don't have any bass heroes and it's not meant in a disrespectful way at all. I tend to view music as a collective whole and I focus on the end product rather than individual parts. I'm more likely to have heroes that are producers (Mizell brothers,Quincy Jones) and/or song writers (Stevie Wonder) amongst others. Just me 😊
  2. Cool feature. Had no idea 👍
  3. I didn't know you could tweak the pre amp pots on these. I thought that only applied to the older Mark 1 Japanese made TRBs from the 90s 🤔
  4. 38mm nut width? For a five string bass? Did you mean 48mm?
  5. If this had a maple fretboard and a dark scratchplate I'd be all over it. My wallet lives to fight another day ☺️
  6. Ok thanks. I was unaware that one neck profile was more sought after than another one. Could be a personal preference thing 😊
  7. Made in Korea?
  8. Amazing looking bass. It's almost worth it for the strap alone. I have one and it's the best strap I've ever bought, it eats my heavy Warwick Thumb 5 for breakfast 😆
  9. This is officially the first Z series Sire I've seen on the used market. Good luck with the sale 😎
  10. Great basses these. Fretboard radius however is flatter than the 14" quoted here. They're 23 5/8" or 600mm 👍 Oh and yours is the later 1005J as shown by the 5 piece neck.
  11. Okay. It looks great but I couldn't make out the ash grain through the translucent finish ☺️👍
  12. Has this bass had a paint refinish at all?
  13. No hate here buddy. As a matter of fact I couldn't agree with you more about the value of these versus an actual Stingray as I've had several of each. I'm focusing on Warwicks these days but good luck with the sale 👍
  14. Any news on the spec on the Standard Series at this time?
  15. That's great to know thanks ☺️
  16. It happens buddy 👍
  17. Not the amber one that was in Bass Direct a few months back? I tried one in there that was bought and subsequently returned as the customer didn't like the preamp 🤔
  18. There’s currently an identical model on the ACG website that I keep staring at (serial number 046G).I find radiused fretboards on electric bass utterly pointless given that they're not played with bows so it's great to see a builder like Alan offer flat boards in that respect. Thanks Mr Fender 😂 Anyway I'm pleased you're enjoying yours. The fussy man that I am would prefer a natural finish but the blue does look good 👍
  19. I'm pretty sure the Elrick version has Bartolini pickups unlike this Cort model. Fine bass either way 👌
  20. And I definitely played it last year or 2022 sometime in The Gallery and indeed it was lovely.
  21. The case is lightweight as you say but what about the bass itself please?
  22. It's an SB315. I picked up a black one a few weeks ago and immediately swapped the stock preamp for a 2-band Glockenklang. It's my second one and I love it. And your one is from 1991.
  23. Hi Rob. I can't say I blame you in all honesty. Amazing creations they are ☺️
