To be honest, It’s only my preference because of the pick and learning to play on a Ric. If Id have come through as a fingerstyle Fender guy I’d likely struggle with it too. Ive only heard good things about your playing BTW! Never had the pleasure of seeing you play yet though. Get that band up and running!😉 Available on all platforms x 1 Quote
Cuzzie Posted March 13, 2020 Posted March 13, 2020 Afraid it looks like a child has drawn a melted wax candle and got some old fruit and nut wrappers to make the hardware. Dimensions seem to be based on my fat bum. Not a winner in my books 6 Quote

I've always thought the Enfield basses look like they've got a fat lip. At least it stops it looking quite so much like a Wal. I've never had my hands on one though, and would definitely like to at some point. 1 Quote

Chiliwailer Posted March 14, 2020 Posted March 14, 2020 (edited) Isn’t karma a bit-ch? Sims lower their dignity with a cheap trick and the BC folk tell it how it is. Gotta laugh 😂 Edited March 14, 2020 by Chiliwailer 1 Quote

AndyTravis Posted March 14, 2020 Posted March 14, 2020 Another thing, I thought the Sims Quad pickups were available in white now? in for a penny etc. Quote

EBS_freak Posted March 14, 2020 Posted March 14, 2020 (edited) When I had my all white bass built, I did contemplate white pickups - but my OCD wouldn’t allow the slight mismatch of white. And I went with a nickel nut to match the frets. Edited March 14, 2020 by EBS_freak 3 Quote

Maybe a decent magnolia and we can have it on basses under the hammer as a refurb with good old Dion Dublin 1 Quote

Love that bass - that’s how it should be. Those GB soap bars aren’t as visually dominant as the Quads - so looks fine: Quote

HazBeen Posted March 14, 2020 Posted March 14, 2020 White and Gold should be disallowed ..... that is all. Quote
