    You can now drag and drop an image into a post. Here's one of my recent speculative creations...

    Sorry got this the wrong way round, I was ripped off! Try Jack's Instrument Services for a pickguard. It will still be a significant percentage of the cost of you bass though. That having been said had I had to buy the DP126 set new it would have cost almost the same as the bass.

    Damn, you paid £10 more than me Did you get the red or the black version? They are great value at this price level. I picked one up the other day and after playing it for a while I decided it was a little too polite and as you say, the J p/up is quiet. So having stuck a set of DiMarzio DP126s in and a proper Kiogon loom and the bass sound has been transformed. Super punchy now with a great tone. Gratuitous pic.:

    The configurator is the devil's work. I spend too much time on there imagining more Sandberg basses that I might one day buy! Why not give us some of your options to consider. Is there anything nailed down at all?

    Very sad, RIP.

    He missed out my Limelight GL

    For those without a Fender fixation, I'd say these are top P basses.

    Nice bass sir, I have a red one (also with matching h/stock). Very nicely made indeed I think.

    Surely that's going to be an MIA Roger Waters P bass.

    I very nearly bought a set of these but after extensive listening to clips etc. on t'interweb I ended up with a set of DiMarzio DP126s instead (with which I am very happy).

    Also check the L/L porn thread here:

    Thanks peeps.

    Have you seen this in the Wanted section? A bit brief and to the point, but there you go!

    For example if you have two counter melodies going on. I think to really appreciate why it's a worldwide standard just watch a conductor directing an orchestra. Without the framework of the music it would make the task much harder, and if you have one set of musicians doing one thing with their long notes and another part of the orchestra doing something else which part dictates where the bar ends? I agree that many things can be improved but I do think this particular aspect has stood the test of time for the last 3 or 4 centuries at least!

    And on Amazon, slightly cheaper.

    Now traded. Thanks for all the interest. For sale or trade is my immaculate Ibanez SR4000e. The bass s/n dates it to Nov 2014 and it really is immaculate condition. It comes in the original Ibby hardcase with the Swiss Army Knife tool thing. Weight wise it's a little less than 8 1/2 lbs by my scales. The spec is: Mahogany body in natural oiled finish 5-piece Wenge/Bubinga neck with titanium rods Wenge fretboard with MOP oval inlays Nicely dressed medium frets Bartolini Custom pickups with the Power Curve III EQ - 3-band with sweepable mids and an EQ bypass switch Monorail bridge and Gotoh tuners. All hardware is Cosmo Black Trades wise I'm happy to consider cash either way depending on the bass or a straight swap. The sort of things I'd be interested in (4 strings only please) are a US or MIJ P Bass, maybe a Spector Legend NT, a Stingray? Anyway, please feel free to make offers and I'll be polite if it's not quite what floats my boat. Happy to ship (at cost for buyer), but would much prefer to meet up and jumping in the car for an hour or two would not be a problem. For trades I'd much prefer to meet up. Thanks for looking and here are some pics, note that the case interior is not that pink, more red in colour. Let me know if you would like any more information or additional detailed pics of any aspect of the bass.

    Personally looking forward to Hell Toupee.

    I'm about to start learning the piano at age 57. I can read the treble clef as I used to play the violin to a decent standard but I have a block for the bass side which needs sorting. Plus I think it will improve my bass playing.

    Bit of a shocker. RIP.
  20. ead
    I'll say.
  21. ead
    I have some exellent imitation Fender branded foam.

    Just sold Brian a strap. Excellent to deal with, plenty of PMs and quick payment, one of the good guys that make this site what it is. What's not to like people; deal in full confidence fellow BCers.
  23. ead
    Goodness. However that is exactly the kind of bass I'd really want to hand over in person even if it meant meeting half way.
  24. ead
    Very sweet indeed. I really like that level of relic and as you quite rightly say it's not to everyone's taste but sod 'em. Just so we can upset Prowla what's on the headstock I've just re-discovered the P/J since my Spector Legend owning days (the first series with P/J and 3-band EQ). I've just grabbed a cheapie Tanglewater Classic Jazz which has received a few upgrades!

    What about a few AC/DC standards if your singer has that kind of vibe? Whole Lotta Rosie Let there be rock Back in black etc. etc.
