Zombywoof Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 (edited) Here's my Corvette Proline 6 fitted with Bartolini pups. paid £400 for it coz it crackles in active mode. Not had it fixed yet but it still sounds great in passive mode.

And you're right, I just got lucky. Bought it off Carrie Melbourne who is Mike Oldfields bassist and I don't think money was an issue for her. She just wanted shot of it. Right time, right place I guess. I'm not usually so lucky as I've bought some right dogs in the past! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So i now have the pleasure of owning my second fafner But yeh, i just missed what i had so got rid of the shuttle for my old trust worthy. The size & weight just wasn't enough for me.
