  1. There’s an Andy Irvine demo up where he plays these but it’s not always ideal listening online. The 51Split J’s are a nice set of pick ups but an overwound stacked 51 in a 51 style p might be closer to what you’re after? The splits are good and make a nice sounding neck pick up (and a good Jazz set). Solo’d I’m happy with the neck in that it puts a out a convincing P sound. To be fair it’s probably not that far removed from a solo’d jazz neck in saying that I nabbed this set to have that jazz sound and P sound coming from a jazz bass and fit’s the bill! I just A/B’d with my P bass (it’s a reverse p with flats so not like for like) but yeah the Split 51 does what you’d expect for a 51 pick up. Not very helpful but describing tone is such a subjective thing. I also have a HB 51 which has a Wilkinson pick up but I think there’s something not quite right with the wiring. The Split sounds fuller and more p like than the HB/Wilk but I’d really need to sort that out before making judgement.
  2. Maybe a little off topic but I put some Nordstrand split J’s in my CV Squier Jazz and they’re not bad at all. 51 style pick up in a jazz shells https://nordstrandaudio.com/collections/all/products/51-split-j-1
  3. I thought it was a digital pedal using some of the neural tech? and an audio interface as well as accessing the DG suite. Happy to be wrong! I thought the front end of your amp was the AO Ultra Pedal? Was that wrong too?
  4. It’ll be good to hear some other non-Nolly demos and see what drives are introduced with further updates.
  5. If you go back and check out a demo or read the overview you’ll see the full list of features and applications. It’s as much a bass recording interface/workstation and distortion device as it is a simple dirt pedal... an evolution of the pedal range and combining the Neural side of DG. This could be the next stage in the development of the DG range in terms of design and features. No the front end of your amp would be the AO Ultra pedal.
  6. , but lacking the preamp EQ. There’s a 6 band eq. It’s the black strips you can see along the middle of the pedal. I guess it mimics the sliders on their amps and pedals and touch controlled nifty!
  7. Back off dude I falsified mine first 😀
  8. I’d drive over and have a gander but locked down! It’s just about my yob bass give or take a falsified document or two😀
  9. If it’s in good shape it must be worth a punt!
  10. Yeah I remember someone making some generic “one-eyed Indonesian” workers comment a while back too which caused some upset among some folks. **I've been informed that the comment was supposed to be making the exact opposite point! i.e. anti-bigotry about Indonesian workers, who are clearly very capable. So let the record reflect that!
  11. Well if you’re quite interested 😉
  12. There’s loads of resources online if you wish to dig deeper. I’ll not be doing your leg work on this one. If you can find Indonesian birth rates and deaths rates lawsuit era basses should be pretty straightforward 😀
  13. The whole lawsuit era modelswas from the late 70’s to the mid 80’s I think. I’d need to go back and dig deeper for exact dates and that goes for many of the brands coming out of Asia by the like of Ibanez etc.
  14. Only the Fender headstock design is protected so body shape wouldn’t have been the issue.
  15. Or the classic Single Coil v Soap Bar shape (or candy bar as some manufacturers call them)! I like look of the 30th. Anniversary Attitude
  16. Yamaha Custom Stack Type / Alnico V - BBNE2 Humcanceled Single Coil / Alnico V - TRB1005
  17. They’re a delight under the fingers. I like the tensions but I recall doing a tune in drop d and feeling the E string got way too floppy so I’d suggest avoiding drop d with the TI’s!
  18. It’s why my set migrate over from bass to bass 😀
  19. What sort of price do they charge for that? I’m asking for a friend 🤫
  20. Right! They can have presence and ‘top end’ bite but not that gakky high end. It’s nit for everyone but I’ve yet to find a flat I enjoy so much. I like the Fender ones on my JMJ Mustang and the GHS Precision’s aren’t bad either on my p bass but if I was sticking flats on for my main 4 string gig I go back to my TI’s!
  21. Jazz Flats are a personal fav and do have a lot of character compared to what one might imagine flats to have!
