    I have a couple splittable-humbucker guitars (notably a PRS CE24), and about nine Strats... no comparison IMO, the Strat is the sound and the split hums can't compete.

    [quote name='jazzmanb' timestamp='1476364135' post='3153664'] Agree,my metro feels and looks and sounds amazing but its a ton weight! [/quote] My MV4 is 8.5lb, I'm one of the lucky ones! Also it's the sleeker shape, not the Ultra Vintage. Ash body, maple neck

    Who's the maker and how much are they out of curiosity?
  4. therealting
    Spoke to him yesterday and I believe he's decided to hang on to it.

    I made a similar transition (Combustion to Super J and Super P), best move I've made.

    But don't forget that the overall cost of living has risen too, and will continue to rise as the cost of imports goes up. Companies won't be able to keep as many people employed. It's all pretty bad really

    Have one of these - they are LOUD, one of those rare situations where the manufacturers have understated the wattage if anything. Lovely tone too, and the controls are very musical.
  8. therealting
    Oof.

    The Metro is made in Japan, where the cost of living and labour is incredibly expensive. My Metro is as good as any NYC that I've tried, the only thing it doesn't have that I wish it did was a chambered body. In every other respect it compares very well. (I do also own an NYC S-type guitar. The two are both fantastic)

    [quote name='Muppet' timestamp='1475787215' post='3148841'] And another THR10 vote. Great sound from such a small thing and editing software for iPad or pc adds masses of flexibility. I run my pedalboard in to it too. For something a little louder I use a Vox Valvetronix VT40X which is also nice [/quote] Didn't know there was an iPad app!

    Is the thumb rest removable, or screwed permanently into the top?

    Another vote for the Yamaha THR10, it's astonishingly good for the money and size. I don't bother getting the Kemper out for practice any more.
  13. therealting
    Ah, gotcha. Will remove the string and try again. Thanks for the clarifications!
  14. therealting
    Love my Dingwall Super P. Passive, balanced across all strings, smooth as anything and with a neck to die for. If I was to buy any P right now, it would probably be a Sadowsky. My Sadowsky Jazz is fantastic. I do agree on the Yamahas - I have an Attitude Special which is astonishingly good for the money.

    Just to update - Pyramid have kindly agreed to send me another E string, so I'll see how that goes. I have a set of TI Flats waiting in the wings if that doesn't work out. [quote name='walbassist' timestamp='1475418962' post='3145741'] Pyramids seems to twist easily - re-seat the string a couple of times to make sure there's no twisting. [/quote] What do you mean?
  16. therealting
    These look great with a tort guard too, easily available from Sadowsky. This is mine. They're amazing machines.
  17. therealting
    DAG NAB IT!!!
  18. therealting
    I'll take them. Message sent
  19. therealting
    Is that a 3+3 headstock?
  20. therealting
    I have a guitar double and a bass guitar double, superb cases. If you were local I might be tempted to make an offer.

    [quote name='lonestar' timestamp='1475094914' post='3143089'] Someone buy this They're really great. I already have one in my bitsa P bass. [/quote] What do they sound like? Toying with getting and putting it in my Yamaha Attitude Special...
  22. therealting
    Thanks. Is there any difference with these? It looks like these ones don't have the Aguilar logo so I wasn't sure if it's a different generation or something. https://www.gak.co.uk/en/aguilar-60s-series-precision-bass-pickup-set-AG4P60/113932

    Half shipping cost? How much would that be to London?
  24. therealting
    Wonder how many they'll sell.

    [quote name='EmaTheMirror' timestamp='1474825216' post='3140838'] The "green" Fender set of flats plays fine in my newly acquired CIJ 51 P, they are also long enough to go through body, if your bridge allows it. I think they have a rather standard mellow/all-round flat attitude (as opposed to more peculiar Rotosounds) and are not expensive at all. I slapped them on already one year old, so quite worn in, all strings sound balanced. [/quote] Forgot about those! I have a set on my Yamaha Attitude Special, they're pretty good and I remember them being REALLY cheap too.
