scrumpymike Posted September 6, 2016 Author Share Posted September 6, 2016 [quote name='naxos10' timestamp='1473165014' post='3127540'] Have you got a particular bass in mind Mike? [/quote] Ohhhhhh yesssss! A Mensinger Cazpar 4P from that nice Mr Maruszczyk! Fell in love with it as soon as I saw it. Also fits in nicely with my Polish ancestry (my old Dad would be proud).

naxos10 Posted September 7, 2016 Share Posted September 7, 2016 Just looked it up on the t'internet - very nice... Have you decided on the full spec yet Mike? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miles'tone Posted September 7, 2016 Share Posted September 7, 2016 DR Hi-beam short scale 45-105 would suit you I reckon. Round core, so flexible and easy to play. Decent gauge for a sensible action, great string to string balance also. Best thing is they sound bloody fabulous!

Trouble is they're quoting delivery times that I can't really live with - especially as the pound is forecast to be even weaker by the time the 2nd 50% payment comes due on completion.
