  1. Beautiful, I would love to buy that and stick a Warmoth ebony unlined maple Precision neck on there There's someting quite Roscoe Beck about it, another example of Fender doing something a little different and doing it very well indeed (if only they'd do it more often). That's a great price given current USA Fender prices also 👍
  2. Agreed I would love to try a Status FL neck on this bass, don’t suppose you have one hanging around…. 🤔
  3. Pretty impressive stuff, I'd never come across them, but I'm going to listen to them today. RIP Ray
  4. No, it’s like a trombone teacher giving saxophone lessons 😕
  5. This was also helpful on the ‘whys’ of multi-band compression https://www.soundonsound.com/techniques/how-and-when-use-multiband-compression?amp
  6. I would try another preamp tube given the above?
  7. I'm with you mate, and those triangular tuners don't help a whole lot either
  8. What's the saying, plagiarism is the highest form of flattery.....?
  9. I think that one has flown straight over my head mate, sorry 🤔
  10. Satellite Westone Fender Musicman Modulus Yamaha Rickenbacker Fender Enfield Bitsas (Warmoth, Allparts)
  11. I've ben pretty disappointed at the crap packing I've received stuff in recently. I know that photo in the O/P looks a bit rubbish, but multiple layers of bubblewrap, despite being a PITA to unravel sometimes, are probably the safest way of moving gear around via couriers, only caveat being if it has cables, careful with the scissors, I very nearly cut through a mains cable that the seller had wrapped rather interestingly
  12. That I will do! Yes I'll investigate what the UAD version does and perhaps have a look at the Reaper version to compare 👍
  13. I hate hissy amps, I can live with it when it's a cheapo or old, but when allegedly high end gear by manufacturers such as Markbass or PJB hisses noticeably out of the box it goes straight back, I'm not going to use EQ to deal with a design or production flaw. Ha ha, nice point, but I think I prefer hum
  14. Yep, the one I linked to above is included in my UAD package also, but I have a similar problem! However, the fact that so many people seem to swear by multi-band compression, even on a speaking voice (which is where a lot of my work is going to be from next month), inclines me to better understand and use it. I'm going to be watching those tutorial videos this weekend I suspect!
  15. Some 90s MIJ Fenders had bridge piezo and split coil Precision PUPs and required a modification to make them playable, at least if you wanted to use both, there’s a thread on here somewhere 👍
  16. No Fender/EBMM/Ric mass-produced bass is worth more than £1500 new
  17. Starting to suspect the BFR and FCS instruments exist purely to make the prices of the standard offerings of EBMM and Fender seem reasonable 😡
