Munurmunuh Posted January 24, 2023 Share Posted January 24, 2023 (edited) I just received a G&L LB-100. It'll be getting the same treatment as my Squier: a Dimarzio and Pro Steels. The Squier is already gone. Edited January 30, 2023 by Ricky Rioli 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doctor J Posted January 24, 2023 Share Posted January 24, 2023 And you have one extra fret. Imagine the possibilities! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Munurmunuh Posted January 24, 2023 Author Share Posted January 24, 2023 (edited) I don't think I ever had the need to go beyond the 15th fret... Edited January 30, 2023 by Ricky Rioli Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonesy Posted January 24, 2023 Share Posted January 24, 2023 It's a shame the Squier has already been sold. I would have very generously offered the option of you keeping it and selling the SB1 to me 😃 The LB100 looks ace and I'm sure it plays like a dream too!

Paolo85 Posted January 24, 2023 Share Posted January 24, 2023 I have happily done one in, one out for the most part last year but now it gets tricky. I could do that for upgrades, as you did. Sell a P for a "better" P. But say I wanted a J, which I don't have, am I ready to sell for example one of my Ps for that? They have flats, rounds, tapes so I would argue they are completely different basses, not interchangeable. Maybe I could let one with tapes go? That would be an excruciating decision to make!

Jonesy Posted January 24, 2023 Share Posted January 24, 2023 I did one in one out for a while just as a self imposed rule........I ended up regretting a sale though so now it's one in then, maybe 6 months later once I'm fully on board with the new bass, it's potentially one out if I need it. I've also decided to put my basses on wall hangers as that sets a limit on how many I can have 😁 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris_b Posted January 24, 2023 Share Posted January 24, 2023 (edited) I bought a Mike Lull Jazz bass that was the best bass I'd played. A few weeks later I bought a Sadowsky Jazz and sold the Lull. One in one out. Now the Sadowsky is too heavy for me to gig and the Lull would have been perfect at just over 8lbs. Ho Hum!

Waddo Soqable Posted January 24, 2023 Share Posted January 24, 2023 Back in the day it was the only option, actually more like one out, one in.. If you fancied, say.. a Rick and you had a P bass, you had to flog the one you had then buy the one you wanted. Unless you could con your mum into lending you the dosh until you sold the outward one of course 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Munurmunuh Posted January 24, 2023 Author Share Posted January 24, 2023 (edited) Having two basses both with Model Ps and Pro Steels would be beyond even me. Edited January 30, 2023 by Ricky Rioli Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not an MFD in the LB-100 - it's G&L's take on the common or garden P pickup. FWIW I like G&L's alnico V P pickup, but it's no MFD.

Currently I have three unused wall hangers to put up. Just trying to make sure where I want them before I get out the drill. Already checked for buried cables.

2pods Posted January 28, 2023 Share Posted January 28, 2023 Between having crap, almost hollow walls, and the chance of hitting a cable or a pipe, wall hangers are off the menu for me. Back on topic, I'd have to do a "one out, one in job". The trouble is I can never make my mind up which one I want out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
