A further harness from John has been acquired, this time a P/J wired V/V/T and now fitted. Can you believe it, it arrived quickly, was easy to fit and improved the tones my limited talents can generate. Outrageous.
The value of anything is only what somebody will pay for it, so if XYZ bass can be sold for £ABC pounds then that's its value, whether that's perceived to be good or bad value is sort of by the by..
Just for the avoidance of doubt I will post a pic and measurements as soon as I get in tonight. I have contacted everybody on the list now and I thank you for your patience.
Hi folks, I've had a lot of interest in this for which I am most grateful and I will deal with all of you in strict order to be fair. So the earliest post or PM comes first and so on. Please bear with me.
I'm not a big fan of the NYXLs, as a serial D'Addario user I tried a set out but now I'm back on my preferred set for fretted basses the EXL170BTs. I am now hoping that these don't get discontinued.
Good pints folks, will get measuring and photographying asap. If it helps I'm 6'3" and I had to shorten it from full stretch length.
I've just been on their website and I think it's this one but not 100% sure on that front: http://www.harvest-guitar.com/en/Cow-Antique-The-Classic-oxid.html
For sale is my Harvest leather strap. It's nice and soft and in good condition. Just not being used.
£15 posted to mainland UK. I'll sort a pic or two out.
NOW SOLD - Many thanks for the interest.
Favourite: The real kick in the guts from bass pedals at live gigs (in case i have the terminology wrong I am referring to the ones that look like organ foot pedals).
Least favourite: Probably synthesized hand claps.
For things Fender Japan try this: https://support.fender.com/hc/en-us/articles/214343783-How-can-I-find-out-when-my-Japanese-made-instrument-was-manufactured-
For the other one not so sure I'm afraid. Maybe the BC hive mind can help.
I went through a variety of sets before I found out that I really liked the D'Addario EXL170BT sets which now inhabit all of my fretted basses. I have tried their new NYXL sets but they don't do it for me in quite the same way so I'm hoping that the EXLs don't get taken out of production any time soon.
On the upside pretty inexpensive next to your GF's favourites!
