daveski Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 The 32in scale i've requested is a first as far as Bernie can recall. I tried a couple of 34in and that last little bit of neck was just a bit of a stretch and i'm used to playing a 32 as well. As far as the Buckeye goes we spent a fair bit of musing over the positioning etc..... and then Debra made a suggestion and guess what..... Bingo!!!! We had are positioning and it's going to look something else! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I take it you are a bit of a MK fan then what with your slap requirements and 32" scale? As for the buckeye - that's going to be the second. Buckeye GBs are indeed a rare breed... One Spitfire... and I'm guessing your Rumour will be the next! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gunsfreddy2003 Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 Oh yes! Since I have had my Rumour I seem to be having all the EQ on my amp set flat and then I just dial in the tone that I need from the bass. I played at Cheltenham Jazz Festival over the weekend and used a G K amp at one gig and did exactly the same with that amp. Is that the way that you tend to approach EQ with your GB's?

They are getting close... there are about 10 GBs I can think of within 15 minutes of my house now... Its fairly amusing, the GB/EBS combination is very popular around my neck of the woods... Hmm... I wonder which part of the world has the highest population of GBs? I'm guessing it's Ferret's house, Simon Dennis' house and my house... ...and with the orders on the board, it won't be long until we leave Simon in the shadows eh Ferret?
