  1. Anyone going to see them.? I'm going to see them in Leamington Spa in December. The originals.
  2. OK so far I have some suggestions from you wonderful people. Kent Armstrong Aguilar Dimarzio Pribora Lindy Fender 62 CS Bartolini's Im now lost. I do know I've always loved Aguilars warm sound in every amp ive had. Ive owned so may basses with Bartolini's I have Aguilars in my Nordstrand soooooo. Im intrigued by Lindy Fralin's tbh. had them in a Jazz bass once and they were superb. I feel like I'm asking what should I have for tea tonight to be honest
  3. Bless you mate. Thats very kind. Im a little bit too west though maybe.
  4. For me his low notes timing are really cool.
  5. Chris your the 5594 owner right.?
  6. Its a few months old. So..?
  7. I love this bass. Alas I only have a Nordstrand VJ5 for trade.
  8. 😆 Never say never bud. My bass tentacles are far reaching.
  9. After me raving how good my Squire 70's P bass is, I've really been playing it a lot and I really don't like these pickups. . To my ears they are harsh with no refinement at all and lack the low end punch.. Maybe my ears have been spoilt by high end pickups over the years.. Very difficult to explain why I dont like them, I just think they sound cheap.. to me anyways. The bass feels and plays wonderful imo but these things have got to go. I do wonder if the pots are not up to scratch also but that's another thread. 🤔😆. Any recommendations.? Ive always loved Bartolini's btw.
  10. Jeez not another one.!! Do I have to go into ultra geek to find this one. Just let me know.
  11. Ah brill. The power of geekery.!Hope it works out for you mate.
  12. Mate I asked around and this might be useful to who owns the instrument. https://www.facebook.com/groups/48129144034/posts/10159398347634035/?comment_id=10159398580814035&notif_id=1629398373096011&notif_t=group_comment&ref=notif
  13. I remember when I was trying to find out info on my Nordy VJ5. Call it geekery, call it..... Yes ok its geekery. Like you fingerz Ive really clicked with my VJ5. Probably the best 5 string I've ever played. That bass you are looking for is on this Bass Direct sold page. Amazing specs. The one your after is number 10 down the list. mine is 17 down. https://www.bassdirect.co.uk/bass_guitar_specialists/Nordstrand_Sold.html I remember playing the 3rd 4 string down with the Amboyna top and at the time it blew me away.
  14. Did you ask Mark at Bass Direct.? Failing that ask on the Facebook Nordy club. They will probably have seen it. Or Talk Bass if it was sent abroad. It will most probably have, made for Bass Direct in the neck pocket, as mine has. Bass Direct had a big batch of Nordys made for them back then...might help if you know the serial number which is on the neck plate.
  15. Im not sure tbh mate. Think they might be DRs. Not sure i need to change the pickups as they sound great. I may change the tuners. Will see.
  16. Best Jazz basses available imo.. I owned a Suhr custom 70's J and it was killer J.
  17. Gene Perez's bass playing on this record.!!.. , Produced by Louis Benedetti. Its dance music made by the masters.
