New signature bass being born... to Janek Gwizdala
therealting replied to visog's topic in Bass Guitars
Watched this yesterday. Really like the dismantle-able bass idea, sounds great for flying. Also really don’t like the “P” style one.- 5 replies

I’ve tried most flats at this point, and I personally prefer a brighter flat so quite like the Ernie Ball flats, their Cobalt flats, D’Addario Chromes and Fender flats. The TI Jazz flats are lower tension, feel lovely and are what gives the Pino P its sound IMO. If you prefer darker flats, the Pyramid Golds are also worth a look.

I have D’Addario Chromes in my Super P5, and alternate between Dingwall and Sansone strings on my Super J5.

Are they full size / scale?

Probably to make the instrument more vintage-correct, which is the whole idea of the series.

Is it time to replace the guard on my Precision?
therealting replied to Bridgehouse's topic in Bass Guitars
I've compared Bravewoods and Limelights and IMO there is no comparison - as you would expect given that Bravewoods are at least twice the cost. I still think they're excellent value though, cheaper than a Custom Shop and MUCH nicer to play, feel and look at. Given that you have a 64 Precision, like me, I'd suggest not skimping. The Spitfire stuff looks nice, but almost too pretty - doesn't look original to me... and it's ridiculously expensive. -

John at Bravewood restored my 64 Precision and ended up putting a beautifully aged replacement guard on it (he had to make a new body anyway as the previous owner had an accident with it and replaced it with a plywood body, of all things). I've had it side by side with an original in good condition and it's honestly indistinguishable. Even the bevels etc are a perfect match.
