  1. You know with G&L you are getting a quality instrument.
  2. She is a great bass player. Enjoyed the Chili Peppers video.
  3. Always been intrigued by that model. I take it has the regular P style neck? Also, is it gloss or satin finish (rear of neck)?
  4. Roto steels - Dragging your face along the road would be more comfortable!
  5. Ash is one of the lightest woods out there? I expect it's a demand and supply thing. Just like rosewood, it will be back...
  6. 1. Yes 2. Yes 3a. Yes 3b. No So would active DI be the way to go? Out of curiosity, if I had an active bass, what difference would that make?
  7. That brings me to my next question - active or passive DI box?
  8. I take it the Radial JDI is the industry standard for this sort of thing?
  9. What are the advantages to having an external DI box? My chain is very basic: Bass, tuner, OD, amp. I use the DI out on my amp and always select pre EQ so the FOH can do their thing. It also has a ground lift switch. Would I gain anything from putting a DI box after the tuner and OD and sending the signal from there to FOH?
  10. Sandberg do do the California series with their own pups and pre-amp has a slight budget version over the Delano option.
  11. It's a special Lemmy edition Dyson. Every vacuum comes with a bottle of JD and 5 minutes of feedback every time you turn it off.
  12. I played one of these AP-4s a couple of months ago and was really impressed. Surprised that it won't intonate properly; especially a Babicz bridge. Possibly a faulty bridge or a dead string? EDIT: Did you set your witness points correctly?
  13. Seven Nation Army would definitely be the 'Stairway' today...
  14. Probably the most flexible hexcore flatwounds you are likely to find - which is a good thing. They start off bright but after a couple months, they start to age very nicely. I would recommend them, for sure.
  15. Depends what people are willing to pay. I sold my Classic Vibe Jazz for £50 more than what I purchased it for.
  16. I have been looking for a new PJ bass with a slim neck and passive electronics. This American Performer Precision fits the bill and I would very much like to try it out. Reading reviews online though, the Performer series doesn't seem to get much kudos with many people saying it's no better than the high end Mexican basses. Does anyone on here own one of the Performer series basses? What are they like in a real world setting?
  17. Simple bass line but works so well and sounds so good! The track was recorded with a 60s Jazz bass strung with EB Super Slinkys into a Demeter tube DI.
  18. Anyone have experience of the new Euro Bolt series?
  19. Are Thomann still shipping to the UK currently?
  20. Not a very exciting music career really...
