I went to school with The Automatic. Not that it's going to earn me any cool points.

Is this a new colour?

That came out stunning. Having just recorded on a nice P I now have some fairly serious P bass GAS

I'd love to have any answers, they both look pretty cool. If you find anything I'd be interested to know.

[quote name='CyberBass' timestamp='1328463003' post='1527451'] It's a totally passive bass, no active electronics. The switchable pre sets are for mids to give the Jaco sound, not that would influence me, however in the bypass mode the tonal qualities are fantastic :-) [/quote] That's pretty cool. Let me know how useful it is in the real world. I was eyeing one of these up last year. I love the styling and they said they could do me one with a P neck

Stoked on seeing this!!

I found the neodymium magnets a lot more brilliant in sound than the ray. There was definate MM DNA but no ray growl. The bridge pickup is set closer to the bridge on a bongo, and the sustain from the neck isn't the same, the eq makes up for it but changes it slightly too.

Bongos def do not do the ray sound

I didn't get on with my bongo 4HH, much happier with my my ray 4 2eq. The bongo was just too much, fussy and complicated. But that's just me. At the end of the day tone is in your fingers and you don't need crazy eq systems to sound good.

When is this due?

Hi guys, Im getting married next august (2013) in cardiff and have been charged with booking a great band. Can anyone recommend one? anyone in a wedding band? We'd be looking for an entertaining rock based sort of an act. Songs by The Beatles, The Who, Oasis, Kings of Leon, The Stones, The Cure etc would be along the right sort of lines, tongue in cheek rocked up covers of pop songs would be a bonus too. What would be even better is if someone could do us a whole entertainment package with a DJ aswell. Myself and my fiance both want live music but we have to cater for everyone obviously. Thanks Ash

I hate you all, I have some serious ricky GAS now

Jetglo for me, but only because mapleglo wasn't an option

I adore the sound of P basses, but I've never found one thats right for me, so for the moment I'm loving my T-40s

[quote name='Gust0o' timestamp='1328210804' post='1523874'] BC Rich did much the same over the period - the neck plates were marked "LA California" despite being imports, so you get the odd EBay expert insisting they have a US-built bass from Nagoya, Japan (New Jersey, right?)...
