  1. Start a spreadsheet - see “for all the basses I have loved” thread. I don’t think I’ve updated that 😂 good Lord I’m such a balloon.
  2. Yeah - always come up at the wrong time, like…a bb has just arrived and stolen some money…
  3. Upset @Al Krowthat you’ve missed the following 415 orange 425x sunburst 424x sunburst 1300 blue 1100s burst (mk1) 1100s white (mk2) from my “had” list and 424x white 424x red 450 sunburst in the current stable. keep up Doris.
  4. @Maude I had a blue BEX - wish I’d kept that bugger.
  5. I had one on short term loan. much like Thunderbirds, it looked stupid on me - absolutely loved how it sounded and played.
  6. I’d go for it - if you hate it (which I doubt you will) and sell for £300, it’s cost you £15 to find out you need something else. if you love it - (which I think you will) it’s a great bass for not much coin.
  7. Just played mine for 20 minutes, lovely new string clang!
  8. One thing I have in abundance is a willingness to be creative…the talent bit is elusive - I’ll find it one day (and probably keel over in shock) 🥴😂
  9. haha. Sat drinking a 0% IPA after a mammoth restring session (dining table doubles as workbench 🤣)
  10. “Orgasmic”? 🤭
  11. They look ace in white - going to keep the black Pickguard on it…
  12. Not unreasonable, if it’s in good nick. there’s not much at that price point which will touch it - it’d take more than £325 to get either of mine. but in the spirit of bartering - counter offer at £300 😂
  13. The 424 has a bit less warmth, a bit more of a hollowed out sound… maybe that’s what I preferred when I had a 1024x and kept the 414. they look mega in white.
  14. A 1600 is definitely the only bb I’m after now - the 3000/neck through ones I’ve played haven’t knocked me out. I really like the 424 on both pickups or bridge only.
  15. What things sound like when I mix them 😂
  16. Well…the single “Diamond Ring” is the highlight…the cover of “Bad” not so much…
  17. My tinnitus basically makes my world have 60 Cycle hum…so, everything sounds “noiseless” to me 🥴
  18. https://europe.yamaha.com/en/products/musical_instruments/guitars_basses/el_basses/bb/specs.html all listed as single coil ceramic across the board…
  19. I’ve not experienced much noise from the bridge unit.
  20. Ah now you’ve said it - I thought I recognised him. yeah - just a bit more pop structure.
  21. Think the bass of doom cost Rob Trujillo $100k to get back from the person who ended up with it. I’d say Jamerson’s “Funk Machine” would be up there (if found and verified). Then Macca’s Violin - his second one which he still plays.
  22. It is very MJ, but has a bit of a dirty loops feel going on - with a bit less jazz about it. very lovely - if only I could find a band/singer like that so I could make a really bad job of the bass parts.
  23. Is that an Xotic?
