What's Guy Pratt doing these days?

[mentalextra]

What happened to good old Guy, would I have heard him on anything recently?

Drop him a PM and ask him directly! He is a member on here after all.

Blimey - another couple of years and his 'anchor' thumb is going to go right through that bass and come out the other side!

[SpaceChick]

I follow him on twitter, he's just back from Australia.

He was very helpful to me when I was trying to get my sound right for my Floyd band.

He hasn't been on for months though

One funky track, sounds great.

Very nice, I really like the way Guy rakes on that. However, what's up with the string spacing on Betsy, the spacing between the A and D looks overly wide and uneven? Doesn't make any odds to his performance though.

[visog]

Great tone... (string spacing looks off to me but what does that matter?)

[visog]

Hang on... what happened to his signature Warwick - the Les Paul alike with its guts hanging out?

[paul_5]

He's round at mine - we be chillin'


I wish.

I'm just amazed someone hasn't mentioned the fit between the control plate and the scratchplate.

We really have become obsessed with 'perfect' fit and build, I'm as invested in this ethos as the next player (the fit on my Lakland is as tight as a gnat's chuff; it plays and sounds great) but when I look at my 63 P bass you could comfortably fit a 2mm pick in the neck pocket gap (maybe bigger) and the Bent Bit Of Tin bridge is not an engineering marvel, however, it plays and sounds brilliant.
