  1. Pop isn't what it used to be, but that's a whole other rabbit hole. Vid for reference 😎
  2. But.. Can I be harsh and say I enjoyed crashing my car last tuesday as much as I enjoyed that. ?
  3. My wife says I'm a snob when I turn my nose up to this pop. And she is correct. Its music for people who love it. It makes me shudder to think my sisters kids are dancing around to it and really enjoying it and I were negative towards it.. Every music has its audience.
  4. Yes, that one you sold to me I would dearly love back.Blue Pearl with a matching headstock. I traded it for a Fender. What a d'[;k move that was. Ive played a HH at Bass direct but it was too much. I was really thinking an SR5 special or a MM J SR5. I will keep looking. A natural rosewood SR5 would do me
  5. Im thinking about letting my Suhr jazz go. I absolutely love its 70s spacing jazz bass sound but the punch and bass of an SR5 is hard to match. BUT im not sure about which SR5 model. I used to have an SR5 and it was great and i loved it for its neck and string spacing. Actually it was one of the best basses ive ever played. It was a single MM. Can anyone with more experience recommend the MM J model and how the j pickup effectsthe tone. ? Also im not sure about the early pickup models to the more modern pickups. They seem to go for under £2000 used from what i can see. Weight im aware is an issue with SR5s so around 9 pounds would be a must. Any thoughts would be much appreciated.
  6. I saw this one on talkbass. Was a steal for sure.
  7. This is a Suhr era Fender. All Fender deluxe jazz basses from 1995 to 1999 had the single poll piece Suhr pickups and the John Suhr preamp.. So this looks like a legit Fender Deluxe/Suhr Fender. These are very sought after Fender Jazzes with the John Suhr combo. The 5 string version can be heard on this with Sharray Reed. Just thought I would mention.
  8. Love that colour combo James.
  9. sometimes I think you think you have to have lots of EQ when you don't actually need it.?.
  10. Yes i like that . Hadnt heard of this before. Definitely sounds like a Sadowsky. Good call. I have to say I much prefer a 70s (both pickups full) sound. Cant say I've ever been a fan of a neck pickup sound on any Jazz bass or a 60's jazz. Like Ped said perfectly Its a bit too (plummy) sounding.
