If you find you don't use the DD once you get the SR4 then sell it. Like I said to you earlier, if you sell the DD and miss it, its going to be bloody hard to get another. I would not part with the DD until you have an SR4.[/quote] Agreed and that was my plan. Last night i was recording Town called malice for our new demo. I got the DD out (of course), did a few takes and gave up. I got the Sub out and nailed it in one. Tone wise the Sub was perfect but its the neck im now getting used to and finding easier to play. Im starting to feel the DD is a bit cramped and if i do find i need a P in the future im sur ei can now go for something like a HW-one again. My problem is cash flow. If i sell the Sub for near asking price i can put the rest on the CC and get a Ray34. If i sell the DD i can buy a 2EQ SR4, hopefully Petes one but if not i have a greater choice. Im not going to take a big hit on the DD though. As it was already second hand, if i do sell it, it will be for around what i paid for it. So that might actually prevent me from selling it. I certainly wouldn't sell the DD before ive done another couple of gigs with the Sub though, just to make sure.

I do enjoy the HW1 though,what is weird no matter what bass I get I always end up back at my MIM Jazz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its a bit wider than a Jazz of course but it feel more comfortable than any P ive played, other than the DD of course. After you took the HW1 i was almost tempted to get a VM Jazz, for some reason i missed the Jazz even though i had hardly touched it for the past few years but i think ive finally found the tone i was looking for.
