As you can see I'm also a proud owner of a CIJ 70's RI. I never played an american standard, so I can't compare. My experience is that this bass effortlessly keeps up with two distorted guitars in a rock band. That can not be said of my Marcus Miller sig. However, the sound soloed is a bit boxy. But I don't know if that is typical for P's (I never played another P). Also a very large pre: a white P with black PG and rosewood neck works great on photoshoots!! Striking impact! Girls all over!! (...wakes up...)

Rich was the man that I bought a body, bridge and several other parts from. He's great on comms and extremely reliabel and trustworthy. Highly recommended.

[quote name='AndyMartin' post='620662' date='Oct 8 2009, 04:35 PM']Have you sorted this out yet? I can do it if you can get the ply round to me[/quote] That wouldn't be easy, since I live in The Netherlands. Are there any other options?

So I'm still curious if there are any BFM-builders in UK or Europe. I really don't have the time or confidence to start a building process. However, I am really interested in BFM-cabs.

I owned a Le Marquis for 9 months. Pros: Cheap Reliable company (Sono MS) Sounded great with Wizard 64's (much better than my Fender f'in Marcus Miller) Cons: QC Fretwork not to good Factory strings do suck I really had a good time with it. Never played a Squire, but if the difference in costs is not too big I would order a Classic Vibe Jazz. (based on the reviews I read here and on TB)

How about the Gallien Krueger Neo 112-II's? Seem pretty affordable. And also Tom Bowlus is very enthusiastic about these.
