Delberthot Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 It would have to be a fender bass V. Completely impractical it may be for what I'm doing now. That or (and?) A maple fretless jazz bass Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dmccombe7 Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 GK 1001RBii I've just bought from Soundslive and delivered Monday. Excited and looking forward to testing. Do have slight GAS for a blue Rik oddly enough. Not sure why tho. Had a white one yrs ago and was very limited but hey ho. Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRBboy Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 [quote name='Spaced' timestamp='1380286696' post='2223293'] The only Sandberg Bullet I've seen on BC or in 'real life' was a natural fretless Custom in PMT Leeds... really wish I'd gone for it. Dunno if it's just me but especially here they don't seem to be much favoured [/quote] Everyone seems to love a Fender-a-like innit? The main thing about the Bullets and Basics for me is the necks.just incredible! I had a California PM once, And whilst (imho) it beat the pants off any fender I've ever played, the neck just wasn't as good as a Basic (plus it was quite a lot heavier). Personally, I like something that is a bit different anyway. I've gone for an upgrade to swamp Ash for the body too, so that is even lighter and has a bit more warmth and low-mid growl. I think it's a shame that you don't see more of Sandberg's original designs about, but each to their own and I guess people just like what they like. I think all of their basses are outstanding value for money, for a hand built bass which can hold its own against anything else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
discreet Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 This evening it's a Barefaced Super Twin. Tomorrow... who knows? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BassNL Posted October 11, 2013 Share Posted October 11, 2013 An ACG Graft Recurve 5 fretless with a figured maple top, much like [url="http://www.acguitars.co.uk/acg_admin/wordpress/portfolio/2893/"]this one[/url] , minus frets. Preferably with 3+2 headstock and East U-Retro. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funky Dunky Posted October 11, 2013 Share Posted October 11, 2013 A Genz Benz amp. Those things are the absolute cherries. Curious about the Squier VMPJ too - has anybody played one? I'm also admiring Lakland and Overwater basses from afar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grayn Posted October 11, 2013 Share Posted October 11, 2013 Fancied a Musicman Big Al for ages but they only seem to come up, just after I've just blown my cash on something else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

antnee Posted October 12, 2013 Share Posted October 12, 2013 Not as grand as these other choices but I've got some serious GAS for a Squier Classic P-Bass 50s in Butterscotch! New Vintage 2-Saddle Bridge, stress the chrome and Gold Pickguard... Time will tell... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ezbass Posted October 12, 2013 Share Posted October 12, 2013 I'm very settled electric wise lately, probably because I don't actually 'need' anything, although I'd quite like a new body for my Ibby fretless as it feels very small comrade to my others basses, but the neck and tone are spot on. However, I have continual GAS for an upright which I will sate one day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BassTractor Posted October 12, 2013 Share Posted October 12, 2013 [quote name='grayn' timestamp='1381494924' post='2239842'] they only seem to come up, just after I've just blown my cash on something else. [/quote] Not true. In fact they only come up after you have posted here that you've blown your cash. So now you should know the drill: save up money like Hull, then write a post on here, and LIE THROUGH YOUR TEETH!!!! Good luck! You'll have that bass in no time.

danbowskill Posted October 13, 2013 Share Posted October 13, 2013 I've got a craving to try out a schecter diamond j or p of late? been reading/watching up on them and they seem a huge bang f yer buck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lozz196 Posted October 13, 2013 Share Posted October 13, 2013 Even though I have a Squier Precision in this finish, I really want a Fender Precision in black/tort/rosewood. Makes no sense at all, but I just want one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SolomonHelsing Posted October 13, 2013 Share Posted October 13, 2013 A musicman bass, whether bongo, sterling or stingray, Annoying three great examples turned up wrong side of christmas for me to put money on them. More importantly changing/upgrading my amp to a Ashdown Spyder (dualtube/touring) 330 or 550 head, and hopefully Ashdown VS Series 1x15 cab, else a lower level ashdown cab.

RhysP Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 I wasn't GASing for anything until I saw a Burgundy Mist US Lakland Bob Glaub on Ebay -way out of my price range but bloody lovely! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
