  1. Me too. Doubly useful when guitars are still in std tuning but the bass part works well in Drop D (e.g. the much reviled - on here - Summer of '69).
  2. Thanks very much, appreciate the comments.
  3. From a little while back as haven't done much video work for a while
  4. Interested to hear what you think when you get to try one Karl. I've had two, first a 5er then a 4-string, but didn't really get on with them for a couple of reasons.
  5. The top horn does look a little different to my old Legend, but not an expert on these things!
  6. Loving that, enjoy your bass and welcome to the ACG club.
  7. Lovely. You're right about the tone, there is something different about a vintage bass. I recorded the same track with the band (who were very patient) using my '66P, an MIJ E series P and an American Standard, they all sounded good and yet surprisingly different (to my ears at any rate).
  8. Per title really, brand new in packet (unopened) although I did break the seal on the carboard sleeve. Now sold thanks. £15 posted to UK Mainland These are the beasties: https://www.stringsdirect.co.uk/strings-c1/sets-c865/bass-guitar-c34/daddario-exl170m-roundwound-bass-strings-45-100-nickel-medium-scale-p864
  9. My exact experience too. The forst expensive bass I bought and saved up for over 12 months for it.
  10. TBH I've seen more Euro 4LXs with the reverse P / J pickup set om the 4-string side. Maybe for 5ers its soapbars.
  11. It's a brilliant place, go and pick it up and have a holiday whilst you're at it
  12. Lovely bass, I hope you enjoy it for years to come.
  13. I have much sympathy with this view. I very much enjoy my ACGs but with the covers band, live, my MIJ P bass just gets the job done.
  14. Got mine too, £20 per a few early birds on here. Well worth it.
  15. Personally I'm not a fan so switched to D'Addarios and have used them for several years.
  16. Brand new and unused. I opened one envelope and immediately realised that, mupput that I am, I bought the wrong set €39 new so offered at £25 posted UK mainland. These ones: http://www.ghsstrings.com/products/19898-short-scale-balanced-nickels?category_id=1969196-balanced-nickels
  17. Best I can manage is a '66 P and an MIJ '96 P
  18. Further endorsement for Jack. He has done a few for me now.
  19. Heavy Warwick content. Is he an endorsee?
  20. Ritz in Manchester last night. Uriah Heap supported by Von Hertzen Brothers. Fun evening spoilt only by the poor sound mix for the VHB set. Did start to wonder briefly whether Spinal Tap was modelled on UH not Saxon. Very tongue in cheek show so probably Saxon after all.
  21. The Drop pedals are great. I wouldn't record through it but unbeatable for practice (and gigs in my case).
