If it plays well, and sounds great in the mix of whichever band I`m in.[/quote] +1.. ive spent thousands on basses , i worked it out and it was coming up to 10,000 pounds. and after all that ive got an MIJ 62 jazz with an Audere and im happier with this bass than any of the others.. go figure.. thing is although it yes was expensive, but the experience of owning all those basses taught me what i know and want from an instrument. a good bass really is what makes you happy.. no matter of cost... comes down to playability, looks, and tone.. tone being the most important..IMHO

[quote name='Prime_BASS' post='1237591' date='May 19 2011, 11:35 PM']Not for me afraid. I prefer rays (ATM) But you never really get a sense of what a bass is about until you are producing some high volume. A practice with the band always seals/breaks the deal for me. Even at home with considerable volume you don't get a sense of what its adding or missing in terms of sound.[/quote] same for me.. a P bass at low volumes is not as good as a P bass loud through a good rig.. comes into its own then..

This is really only a quick visit as I've got me a new toy to play with - Wal Mk1 - but I'm always interested in the stuff you post (as long as I don't have to go buy the album [/quote] i agree mate. not too loving the rapping, but her voice is great.. let us all know how the Wal is...

[quote name='Conan' post='1235708' date='May 18 2011, 01:57 PM']Aside from the blatant excuse to mention It Bites (who I am off to see in Newcastle this evening!), you may find it interesting what Frank Dunnery has to say about his "Fenders"... Listen from 1:15... [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hBd401c9ak4&feature=related"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hBd401c9ak4...feature=related[/url][/quote] is he singing his opinion of Fenders??

Great band i discovered.. the funky among us may like.. [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=of0iQPTRKz8"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=of0iQPTRKz8[/url]
