Total Watts

  1. Interesting indeed - he clearly felt that the neck mudbucker was something missing from the original (basically Thunderbird) pickup placement. As a big fan of Thunderbirds, but also of humbuckers placed right up at the neck, I've been very intrigued by the Mike Lull Tom Petersson model - anyone tried one?

  2. This is looking increasingly bargainceous in view of recent Wal prices. Lovely example too; I'm not usually fond of shedua facings, but really nice on this bass. GLWTS
  3. Never tried one and probably never will, but Elvis Costello in his early years playing his similarly styled Jazzmaster was for me the epitome of cool.......
  4. My memory of the older Patrick Eggle instruments is that the guitars were very decent indeed; the basses (Milan etc) looked nice but were sonically pretty bland. These don't even look nice; a shame as the original Shergolds always looked classy.
  5. I'd agree with both of those opinions. I assume they were probably trying to make the design sufficiently different from the Wilcock Mullarkey; itself very derivative of the original Shergold body design, with the DNA that led to the Wal Pro basses. A bass version of their new Masquerader guitar would be quite tasty, mind.
  6. Lovely plumage - bubinga? Great story
  7. Last bump on this, with a price drop; been using this as my studio bass for the last year and v happy to keep it as such
  8. Also fits Warwick, who seem to be the main offender for fitting gold hardware as standard........... Just put one on my LX Streamer, or I'd be snapping this one up - bargainaceous price, really useful little units, and IMHO one of the very few mods that actually increases the value of your bass.
  9. Bargainacous - the Peerless made ones are very highly regarded, and pretty rare. Don't think I've ever seen a black one before either
  10. I keep coming back to this; it just seriously exudes cool Just to clarify - and apologies if I'm being thick in trying to understand the build diary - is the Epi neck a 4-string one converted to 5, or originally from a 5? Whatever - fabulous unique bass, bump and GLWTS!
  11. If the virtual ABBA were Abbatars; would the virtual Pistols be the Pretty Vacants? (I'll get my coat.....) About the only one of the big punk /new wave bands I didn't get to see back in the day
