  1. Is this the same one that Kitsto sold here in January?
  2. Thanks Sashca. It truly is a work of art. I'm considering which of my basses is gonna get sprayed now!
  3. Could you confirm what the various parts are made from please? Is it actually aluminium or just painted to look like it? I've never seen anything like it before. Cheers.
  4. You have also quoted three different weights and two different sets of dimensions? It would help potential buyers if you could confirm those details for getting it in the boot of car type issues. Cheers again.
  5. The easiest way to tell would be to use your bathroom scales and see if it's nearer to 55 or 70 pounds.
  6. Another vote for the Markbass NY121P. It is a great match with the LM2
  7. [quote name='Jaykingfunk' timestamp='1488120254' post='3245989'] Sorry, thought I'd updated it to sold! [/quote] You still haven't. Adding 'sold' to the thread title does that.
  8. [quote name='PaulGibsonBass' timestamp='1487983400' post='3244897'] I'm an intelligent, educated man. However I find this whole impedance / ohms thing utterly baffling. I'm new to the whole head / cab thing, surely there's a way I can get my head round it? I can't be that complicated? [/quote] Try Google ing Ohm's Law. Wikipedia should explain it clearly for you.
  9. As an aside: the Bass direct website always expands to an unusable degree when I try to view using my Samsung smartphone. Anyone know a fix?
  10. [quote name='Lw.' timestamp='1487253439' post='3238396'] You play a Tokai Hardpuncher but don't like fakes? Hmm... [insertnotsureifseriousfrymemehere] [/quote] Brilliant! 😃
  11. I'm sure you wouldn't kick a Fender Custom Shop Pino Palladino out of bed. 😉
  12. I have a fretted mahogany Kala U bass and thoroughly enjoy playing it on the rare occasions it goes to small pub folk nights. The stock strings do take an age to stretch out so you don't have to keep retuning, but once they are I don't have a problem with intonation. Having said that I use it to play walking bass lines and tend not to do too many slides which could cause problems if done with high pressure on the strings I guess.
  13. I have a Fender Reggie Hamilton Standard Jazz bass which is the perfect PJ for me. It has the classic PJ pup configuration, slim J neck and a fully featured active pre amp that can be switched off for passive use. If you are thinking of modifying a non USA P then it shouldn't affect its value too much, but you will reduce the appeal of a good USA P by a non reversible mod. If it is going to be a keeper then go for it either way.
  14. Why not try a John East retro-fit active jazz pre amp type bump?
