  1. For what it's worth I was in The Bass Gallery in London earlier and tried a used Anaconda Ultra J5. I was quite taken with the bass itself more so than the tonal voicing but the brand has definitely grabbed my attention still. Played effortlessly.
  2. Interesting that he hated all copies of the song yet had space in his record collection for them. I mean if they were that bad then...
  3. That might not apply in all cases however. Some individuals just absorb information and new skills really fast. I do understand your reasoning though.
  4. When will they hit your website?
  5. You may well be describing a massive midrange scoop. It might have sounded even more undistinguished in a live mix.
  6. Even though I have ZERO plans to buy one I think this is true. Btw are you equating nerdiness to one's technical proficiency?
  7. Did that contribute to an inherently scooped sound with both pickups on full? The Cort Jeff Berlin Rithimic V I've noticed also has pickups in two separate postcodes and I've wondered the same.
  8. Oh yes it is 😉 I'd take that over a Fender.
  9. I heard she politely fired Luther but didn't know about Marcus. I'm not suggesting you're wrong btw.
  10. 88 keys on a piano for each year she spent on earth. RIP legend 🙏
  11. I've never until now heard the Fender Jazz referred to as nerdy. You live and learn 😊
  12. This. And I have a new Squier Affinty bass.
  13. But then it's him that's the nerd rather than his bass of choice 😂
  14. Ha ha I'm here wondering how bass guitars and nerd ended up in the same sentence 😅
  15. Not all funk bassists 😉 You've possibly described a recipe for effective cutting through which some of us crave regardless of genre.
  16. Either 1) or 2) can have a good or bad set-up? Subjectively of course.
  17. Oh that's not good. You sound like you have great tinkering skills. A passive Warwick even with active pickups is indeed a beautiful thing soundwise. I nearly bought one last year from Will at BassBros (Korean Pro Series I think it was) but it went fast. Do you think you'll eventually install the new preamp?
  18. That would also bother the daylights out of me too 😂
  19. Got you. Can't say that's ever happened to me but it sounds like a real pain.Would that also bring fret buzzing as it lowered itself as well as flat notes?
  20. That's pretty awesome. Yeah maybe they wouldn't go to those lengths today sadly.
  21. I'm picking your brains a bit because I'm learning from this discussion. Hope you don't mind. How does a bridge contribute to tuning problems?
  22. I think it would still. I'm playing my 2001 Broadneck Thumb 5 right now coincidentally. All stock of course 😊
  23. What is it they fail to do after a while? I'd like to hear of other experiences. Scratchy pots and having to replace the jack socket I've experienced,both minor fixes.Never broken a battery wire but I can see how it can happen. I've even yet to break a string. Maybe I'm too soft on my gear 😂
  24. Wow I've never heard of that model till now. Appreciate the heads up but it's missing a string for me 👍
  25. Absolutely gutted. Turns out my Skyline DJ5 had a frozen truss rod. I took it back to Guitar Guitar and their tech guy couldn't shift it. I opted for a refund and they were really good about it. Concerns me that it's back for sale on their website in that very same condition. Only had it 14 days but I'm really gonna miss all 11lbs 3oz of it 😢
