  1. What’s the scale length of this one then? I assume not 33”
  2. Wow, I actually own a 64 and I have to say that’s a wonderful job!
  3. A ridiculous amount of bass for £100!
  4. I’d say don’t limit yourself to American ones. I’ve had a couple Japanese ones which are every bit as good or even better. I have a 61 and a 64, and I always end up picking up my 7.4lb ‘85 MIJ medium scale P now...
  5. Again not the cheapest bass, but my Dingwall Super P5 is so damn near the perfect bass that I really could manage with just it and none of the others.
  6. Will you have to change your name if this sells? 😔
  7. Probably a case of demand and the cost of keeping rarely-needed or asked-for spare parts in stock.
  8. Well that’s the thing, they sound absolutely fine. Will probably have a play with strings first before I think about pickups. It’s genuinelt astounding for what it cost.
  9. Just searched and seen it, killer price! This was still more than £650 cheaper so I think I’ll be ok for now 😄
  10. Nope, used prices! I’ve not seen a P35 for less than £1100 so far. Not sure what pickups yet but if I do they’ll probably be Nordstrands.
  11. The price I got on my 435 is pretty much unbeatable IMO, more than £850 less than the cheapest P35 price I’ve seen. I may yet change out the pickups and get the fingerboard dressed and rolled.
  12. Are there big differences between the 435 and P35?
  13. I know they’re popular, but the first page was almost all Markbass when I looked - more than I could fit on my phone screen!
  14. Hipshot are great to work with, well worth sending them an email to see what they can do.
  15. I have a Bareknuckle 58 in my 61P, and a Nordstrand NP4V in my 64P. Both are superb pickups and deliver on “the sound”. I also have an Aguilar AG60P lying around waiting to be put in something, I hear that’s a pretty special pickup too. Was going to put it in my medium scale P, but that currently has a Fender Custom Shop 62 in it and that sounds pretty killer too...
  16. How much do they weigh, and what are the dimensions? Very interested, just trying to work out if they will fit in my car!
  17. I was an idiot and don’t know which way clocks go 🤦‍♂️
  18. I generally find it quite easy to remember the different layouts I have - the trouble for me is that the Sadowsky preamps have a reversed blend knob which I actually prefer (counter-clockwise for neck, turn up for bridge). Acts a bit like a tone knob effectively.
  19. Really simple to remember that layout - volume knobs are closest to the pickup they control, and the other is a tone 😊
