  1. That’s why I have three Hipshot detuners sitting in my hardware box...
  2. Anyone replaced the hissy pre yet?
  3. That’s a ludicrous price, I almost wish I had a bass with a compatible headstock so I could buy it!
  4. Wish I could help, really I do! 😁
  5. Smoking. I can’t do it. She might be the hottest woman alive, but I can’t countenance kissing an ashtray.
  6. @Cuzzie Ah, didn’t know that
  7. Agreed, and thanks! Correct, and really that’s the main reason I’m selling it as I have shorter fingers, and in recent times have moved towards medium scale (I have a 33” Shuker for my 6 needs, and my 32” Ibanez Mezzo fiver is getting lots of play time at the minute). It does give the low B tightness, but at my age I have to take care of my hands!
  8. I’ve started locating gold hardware to do mine up...
  9. It’s 5.5kg so definitely no featherweight, but not ridiculous for a six string version of a Jazz - those heavier ash bodies are a part of what makes that 70s Jazz sound (many of the original late 70s Jazzes around around 5kg for a four string).
  10. Killer, killer bass!
  11. Fixed it for you
  12. €12k?!
  13. I started out on a six string, my monster Yamaha TRB6. I loved the range, being able to go down to a low B, being able to play chords and high fills, and also how much easier it makes sight reading (minimal shifts). I currently still have a bunch of six string basses: the TRB, my Ken Smith Design six string Jazz (currently on the classifieds), my 33” scale Shuker Singlecut, my Warwick Alien and my fanned fret RedSub Coliseum. I’ve also owned a fanned fret Ibanez Soundgear, a Tune, and probably a couple others I’ve forgotten. Really like having them.
  14. Damn it, missed this!!
  15. Any P config. There are a bunch of other factors though, the kind of bridge you have, whether you have a preamp or run passive, the kind of strings et cetera
  16. I never got the Precision thing when I was younger until I joined this forum. Decided one day to take a shot on a lovely MIJ Fender FSR Classic 60s Lacquer Precision, and couple years later it was long gone. ... and I owned two pre-CBS Fender Ps. So be careful, it’s a dangerous game...
  17. @amadeusex I’m curious too. The first one was a six string, designed to be able to match synth bass range, so I wouldn’t be surprised if it was Terrific Range Bass or something.
  18. I have several fanned fret instruments - I’ve had three Dingwalls (still have a Super P), have a RedSub fanned six string bass, and also have several fanned fret guitars (an Avian acoustic, two Ibanez acoustics and an Ormsby electric 7 string). I don’t find I have any issues switching between them, but some things are easier on fanned and some things easier on parallel. I find it easier than going from lo to short scale to be honest.
  19. Yup, I’d actually be in favour of a rule that ads need to be left up for informational purposes.
