  1. You need to try a few. What you already have isn't any real bearing on it.
  2. [quote name='noelk27' timestamp='1386552902' post='2301473'] SB1000 is overpriced. [/quote] Most of the stuff on there is. I'm sure it's negotiable to serious interest.
  3. The Q series preceded the Legend. No better or worse just different body shape. I had a Q6 Pro and bought it new on sale for £350 in 2005. Sold it for the same a couple of years later.
  4. Can't watch that vid on my phone. Annoying.
  5. Keep it. I regret selling mine and will keep my Peavey T-40 for that same reason even though I never play it.
  6. SFAM is my favourite but legally has to be listened to from start to finish without breaks. Train of Thought and Octavarium are next up, newer albums just don't grip me as much but do have good moments. It's just a shame they can't make good albums anymore.
  7. Lakland 55-60. Bought when I wasn't even looking to buy as it blew me away so much. I try not to play it too much as it makes my other basses look bad. Perfect neck, amazing vintage Jazz bass tones and unusual colour means I will never let it go.
  8. The only real problem I find with G&L in general is the reserved and understated appearance. Which is why I bought this one..
  9. I'd neglected my L2000 after using my new Lakland exclusively for a couple of months. Took the L2000 to practice the other night and it was utterly epic. So versatile and what a tone.
  10. I bet she doesnt know her reverb from a phlanger.
  11. I had some and the pickup casing wad rounded and a matt/satin finish. Of course they can be put in the old covers still ! Also I remember tidy twisted wiring. I have the box still so can let upload a pic.
  12. I had a German Corvette 5 $$. To think one would be near enough 2 grand new now is worrying. It was good but not THAT good. I traded it for a hand made Bacchus.
  13. Please tell us what kind of feedback you expected ? I honestly want to know.
  14. Did you actually think it would be genuine ?
  15. A biological anomaly perhaps, but one I didn't think sounded great.
  16. She sounded like my vacuum cleaner.
  17. I think Fender have tried very hard but ended up with what looks like someone else's product. Fair enough most of their selling point is based on 1950s design but I feel that this should have emulated this and Fender should avoid modern vibes that other brands will wipe the floor with.
  18. Tried a Modern Player version in PMT Birmingham yesterday. It was ok but didn't really inspire me. Of the 5 positions on the switch, the 3 middle sounded utterly identical. I think the 2 pickup active model will be a lot better but then I can just see it being an L2000 copy, irony overload.
  19. Yeah, and LOVES to fray and look messy.
  20. Raising the action should minimise how much string vibrates on th fretboard which usually dictates how much fretless 'mwah' is heard. Also what about a mute ?
