  1. Just curious if you tried any non Fender P type basses in your quest before settling on the Nate Mendel?
  2. I haven't watched this but it's not sounding too good so far if even Andertons feel this way.
  3. Okay then I'm not sure I understand your disappointment.
  4. I thought you meant it was a 2006 bass rather than you ordered it in 2006.
  5. I had a Squier Deluxe Active Jazz V with an ebonol fingerboard and really liked it. Not sure that helps. Can I assume you haven't received the bass yet?
  6. I will say though that my front port facing Bergantino cabs are less sensitive to walls than rear facing port cabs I've owned in the past such as Markbass.
  7. Yes!!! Totally agree with cab placement respective to wall position. Forgot about that.
  8. Will you leave the preamp as is or add the VTC?
  9. Can't believe this is still here at this price 😳
  10. What's weird is there are a few serial numbers that are 94/95 according to some reports. You probably already know the 5 string models were exclusively made in USA.
  11. Actually I forgot because I rarely use it. I dig in a bit when using my envelope filter pedal to trigger it. But that's it ☺️
  12. Good point but they were really tatty by the time I'd done with them and I just wanted them out my life. You are right though 😉
  13. Probably best to contact Fender directly?
  14. I may get arrested for doing this but I finally put my TI Jazz flats in the bin. I installed and reinstalled them on various basses over the two years I owned them but I have to admit to not understanding the flatwound appeal compared to rounds. They're not the first I've tried but definitely the most expensive as I wrote in a previous post.
  15. What's the bridge string spacing on this? I always thought Sadowsky 5 strings were 19mm by default but I'm seeing 18mm recently on some specs.
  16. This is me all day every day. I don't dig in. Might as well let the amp work for it's keep and turn up the volume knob as and when needed. My tone doesn't suffer one bit as a result.
  17. It's not a walk in shop. There's no visible "store" front on the street. I made appointments each time I visited. Passers-by would never know it's there.
  18. Those who know,know 😉
  19. This. Also take place of manufacture out of the equation when a good bass is a good bass.
  20. Oh believe me he's legit. I nearly bought a used SR5 off him a couple of years ago. I've visited his store at least two times 👍
  21. This is true. If I was a 4 string Fender kind of guy I'd go and give it a test run. I don't live too far from this shop. The owner has a decent bass inventory and invites offers. I hope he gains more traction in the marketplace going forward.
  22. https://fenderfever.com/products/2375?_pos=49&_fid=ab9285fa2&_ss=c Case in point. Albeit a Jazz.
  23. If the guy you refer to in Birmingham Guitar Guitar is their resident bassist his name is Oz and indeed is an absolute gentleman. To be fair they all are.
