  1. I had one on short term loan. much like Thunderbirds, it looked stupid on me - absolutely loved how it sounded and played.
  2. 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.
  3. Just played mine for 20 minutes, lovely new string clang!
  4. 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) 🥴😂
  5. haha. Sat drinking a 0% IPA after a mammoth restring session (dining table doubles as workbench 🤣)
  6. “Orgasmic”? 🤭
  7. They look ace in white - going to keep the black Pickguard on it…
  8. 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 😂
  9. 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.
  10. 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.
  11. What things sound like when I mix them 😂
  12. Well…the single “Diamond Ring” is the highlight…the cover of “Bad” not so much…
  13. My tinnitus basically makes my world have 60 Cycle hum…so, everything sounds “noiseless” to me 🥴
  14. https://europe.yamaha.com/en/products/musical_instruments/guitars_basses/el_basses/bb/specs.html all listed as single coil ceramic across the board…
  15. I’ve not experienced much noise from the bridge unit.
  16. Ah now you’ve said it - I thought I recognised him. yeah - just a bit more pop structure.
  17. 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.
  18. 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.
  19. Is that an Xotic?
  20. Oooh, aaaah, 4 of the same thing…🤦🏻‍♂️😂
  21. If they’re resistant, there are about 4/5 easy methods rather than tools - but there are “knob pulling” tools 😂😂😂
  22. Nee strings and final tweaks…
  23. Passive p/j - proper BB
