Slightly bigger body, certainly wider - and I think if I’m reading it right it’s more how it feels neck wise, and the 425 is a flatter wider profile

Bought a Yamaha from me recently. Thoroughly decent chap. Enjoy!

Martin and I really do sell each other too much gear... Anyhow, another day another deal. Bought a case I had spare, Shame we weren’t sat in a pub. We could talk bass nonsense for England.

Olympia in a black and blue packet, normally about £14. They’re ok.

There was a lovely Sunburst one up for sale last month. Think jaydee only made a handful. id message them - they’re helpful.

It’s fake that. Not good.

Good lord that’s pretty. Love your work x

Honestly, if one comes up...I’d recommend it.

Yeah 🤷🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️

Yeah 🤷🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️

Don’t think they lasted long - the company still exists and I suspect the originating factory makes the expensive Bacchus stuff (only other place I’ve seen that bridge).

“Meanwhile, Godlyke Inc. in the US started to sell their Disciple, a clear copy of the SGC Nanyo Bass Collection made of hardwood and equipped with “SGC electronics”, for prices ranging upwards from $825. Quite a long way upwards, in fact.” easily the best put together bass I’ve ever owned...

Nah - it’s crap. Probably sell it next week 😂😂😂 seriously - never owned something this well put together.

Blummin eck.

Pedal. Board. Just the one. thinking about a reverb pedal, and an Ashdown foot switch needs to happen as I’ve started using the sub octave on one song.

“Godlyke Inc. is a music equipment distributer founded in 1998 by Kevin Bolembach and George Schwab. As well as selling other brands, Godlyke also distributes its own brand Godlyke Basses which are hand-made in Japan. They feature an ergonomically-designed body shape, dual SGC pickups with 18-volt active electronics and Gotoh hardware.” apparently

Well. This has been on the watch/want list for a while. Eventually got a deal sorted. Arrived today and I’m stunned. I’ve owned Ken Smiths, Warwick’s, Jaydees, Status’ etc and I’ve never had a bass which feels so well made. Absolutely bonkers. Sounds like a hammer too. Very very pleasing.

4 which stay. And a fifth space which is seemingly occupied by whatever flavour of the month...(there are sometimes up to 7, I have been up to about 30 at one point but then kids, marriage etc) I used to have 4 wall hangers which kept me limited, now I have a lovely rack stand case thing which can hold up to 7...so we’ll see. this arrives tomorrow...

Nirvana - Bleach been a long time since I listened to Nirvana, Krist Novoselic’s playing had so much bearing on me when I was a kid. Love what he does. Anyhow, Iris is dancing around, so it must be cool.
