Bassman Sam Posted January 6, 2020 Posted January 6, 2020 Just bought this from our very own @JPJ. Was delivered to the hotel I'm staying at in Geordie Land. Playing it through my Vox headphone amp and Phil Jones cans, it sounds thunderous. Can't wait to get home tomorrow and fire up my Ashdown ABM 500 and scare the crap out of the neighbours. 15 Quote
Lozz196 Posted January 6, 2020 Posted January 6, 2020 That will rumble the chest cavity nicely through the ABM, congrats. 1 Quote
Jean-Luc Pickguard Posted January 7, 2020 Posted January 7, 2020 Congrats! These are fantastic basses. The pickups sound excellent and the necks feel like a really good jazz bass. I have a matching pair of sunburst ones and have a white one incoming - due to be delivered tomorrow. I'll probably end up getting a black one to complete the set at some point as well. 1 Quote

This was the best 300 quid I've spent on a bass. Edited January 7, 2020 by Bassman Sam 1 Quote
Jonesy Posted January 7, 2020 Posted January 7, 2020 Lovely stuff, congrats with the new toy! I have a white classic pro, I'm not sure if the necks are the same (think they are?), but it's one of the best necks I've played. 1 Quote

'60's sounding, Martin Turner tone on a budget , if your a Wishbone Ash fan. ( Which I am). 3 Quote
