Total Watts

  1. Looks like the pickup is in the right spot. I assume it does that growly Stingray sound and these necks are superb! I tried a Kingston Z5 and it had one of the tightest low B.
  2. I tried a DW Spector back in late 2000's and still the best neck I have ever played. Super cool bass GLWS
  3. So annoying isn't it? Nut width and string spacing should be specified in a straightforward way. How can you gain trust when they keep contradicting?
  4. Oh yes. Looks better now...
  5. Sire headstock basically looks like grandpas socks pulled on a fence, and that Z7 Stingray lower horn is a lump..... Yet, they nailed the Stingray tone and Sire offers the HS version with 12" radius and stainless steel frets for around £600...I want one
  6. Absolute bargain! I wish these were a direct replacement on my CS.
  7. These Yamaha cabs sound terribly good and Krysbass is a top guy to deal with.
  8. Yes but the point is they offer these extras at much lower price level
  9. Worth mentioning that these have stainless steel frets like the US Music Man basses and unlike Ernie Ball, Sire produces the HS configuration.
  10. Hi All, As it says, Jim Dunlop Super Bright 45/125 Stainless Steel NEW/Unopened strings for sale £40 posted. Thanks, Best, Hoff
  11. I played DJ5s a few times and if you like the jazz sound and feel this is an absolute deal. The neck is rock solid with graphite bars in them.
  12. I remember back in the 2000s when first tried these at the Musikmesse in Frankfurt. I was totally blown away by the quality and playability. especially when I compared these to the Fender American Vintage 75 jazz. Fenders were overpriced with crap setup and some QC faults, but Bacchus basses were impeccable. This money is a steal for a high-end jazz. GLWTS
  13. You can easily have these modified with upgraded electronics. I bet an East or Aguilar pre with a parallel/ series switch on the chrome plate this would be a tone monster.
  14. Agree, an insanely good price for this monster.
  15. Hope so. This Sad has been on their website among tonnes of half priced Chinese made for quite a long time and they cannot move it. They still want to stick to this high price, but I assume too at some point they have to drop it. This series is gone and will not have a revival year like any classic Stingray, Sabre, or 60s jazzes etc.. It is exceptional bass, but kinda dead. For 1500 you could get a G&L USA or Sandberg with much higher resale value.
