Mudpup Posted June 16, 2017 Posted June 16, 2017 dammit.....i thought my buying basses days were over where can i hide it i wonder? any idea on price? Quote
Pinball Posted June 16, 2017 Author Posted June 16, 2017 There is one on US ebay at the moment for a £509 so they don't look expensive. I hope they do a 5 stringer Quote
Pinball Posted June 17, 2017 Author Posted June 17, 2017 [quote name='Musicman20' timestamp='1497654715' post='3319903'] They need to push the US series more... [/quote] I agree actually, I think the US models are potential winners. Great sound options and nice and light, what's not to like? Quote
hamfist Posted June 17, 2017 Posted June 17, 2017 Hmmmmm. basswood body. IME, hard to get a great sound from. Only the Bongo has managed it consistently so far. Quote
scalpy Posted June 17, 2017 Posted June 17, 2017 Blackstar being the new UK distributor should help, they did a great job with a new amp line. Not sure about the Kiloton, the video demos haven't done much for me but they look cool as. Also not sure about G&L being more high profile, quite like mine being from a niche manufacturer. But then don't understand why they are more popular either! Quote
Grahambythesea Posted June 19, 2017 Posted June 19, 2017 So everyone talks about them being light. Having given up Ps and Js as too heavy what do these weigh? Quote
Woodinblack Posted June 19, 2017 Posted June 19, 2017 My L2500 certainly isn't light. It isn't the heaviest bass I have had, but I think it is the heaviest of the 9 basses I have at the moment. Quote
Conan Posted June 20, 2017 Posted June 20, 2017 My M2000 tribute is lighter than my three J basses, but probably not by that much. I've never weighed it (but I can if it would be helpful...) Quote
BassApprentice Posted June 20, 2017 Posted June 20, 2017 OooooOOoooo very interesting. Now just to find a shop that stocks one Quote
stingrayPete1977 Posted June 20, 2017 Posted June 20, 2017 A P bass body with a humbucker quite near the bridge and high mass bridge, I've seen something similar before somewhere...... Quote
CamdenRob Posted June 20, 2017 Posted June 20, 2017 [quote name='Conan' timestamp='1497941493' post='3321394'] My M2000 tribute is lighter than my three J basses [/quote] My Wal is approximately the weight of three jazz basses... Quote
CameronJ Posted June 20, 2017 Posted June 20, 2017 I feel the only thing that could improve this picture is a tort guard and a maple neck. Quote
