    They sound great when you really dig in, especially on (w)hole notes

    Is the decal going to be easily removable, i.e. Is it just a waterslide on the surface, or has it been lacquered over?

    Sounds a bit smooth on that video, I assume it's capable of that Geddy-esque growl and clank that we all know and (some of us) love!?

    I use the Bass Whammy after my Sub Phatty to do this kind of thing, and it works great! Definitely octave pedals BEFORE the Whammy. I find the Whammy doesn't sound cheesy at all if it's fed more of a gritty signal. You may have been given that impression by all the guys on YouTube, doing w***y slap on a Warwick through the octave up setting?

    Sold Graeme my Nordstrand NJ4 pickups. The whole thing was agreed and paid for within about five minutes, and his communication was very prompt and friendly. Pleasure dealing with you Graeme, enjoy the Nordies!

    [quote name='lee650' timestamp='1488074823' post='3245672'] Shame those nj4's weren't the 70's winds,as I'm after a set 😀 [/quote] Yeah, they're not really close unfortunately...If you aren't already aware, Bass Direct have the 70s wind in stock!

    Pretty sure Mark King uses, and helped to develop, the Rotosound 30-50-70-90 Funkmaster set.

    1991 Red Hot Chili Peppers give it away - actually it's believed Flea recorded this on a Wal MK1, used for the majority of BSSM (see [url="https://youtu.be/y4O3I5X0q_4?t=25m4s"]here[/url]). You could use Aeroplane in 1996 though, apparently that's a Stingray.

    [quote name='Westenra' timestamp='1480287635' post='3183161'] What makes its tone so different from that of a regular 70s jazz bass with vintage wound pups? [/quote] Two main differences from a 70s style Jazz Bass: - Pickups are early/mid 60s voiced (using formvar wire), rather than the more aggressive late 60s/70s (enamel wire) - It has 60s pickup positioning. In 1970 Fender moved the bridge pickup 1/ 4" closer to the bridge, which changed the sound slightly in favour of the high end.

    This used to be mine! It is an AWESOME sounding bass. Tempted to buy it back Marinus ;-)
  24. bakerster135
    Is this still available? I don't intend to buy it, just curious.

    Has the headstock been refinished, and is that a replacement decal if so?
