Not for the music per sé
😉


It may be Greco. I'm not sure.

I have the exact same Gneco model, it's a 32" scale

Ah Post Rock, don't know how any band can make it out of the delay and reverb drenched murk in that genre and get noticed but these guys did.
I like how the guitarist sit for the entire show, it's Post Rock, there's not much to look at anyway so might as well relax and sit down. I dig the Japanese take on "western style music" always with a quirky twist.
As for the EB3 you can hardly hear it, so deep in the mix, i like it.

Thank you Peter,
You book is already on it's way to Down Under. But it may take a while for it to arrive (per snail mail).

Thanks Rob, we all have good ideas from time to time but to complete the task takes strength, persistence and patience, respect to you mate.
Getting to hang with uwe would of been fun and educational.

Thanks for the help, I've sold it.
It was a choice between spending money on upgrades that I may not be happy with or flipping it. I flipped it.

I should probably just post this on TB but it's like asking a question in a subway at peak hour.
I need some wisdom regarding the good old jazz bass.
I recently picked up an early production MIK squier j bass, solid body (probably basswood), really nice neck. I took it to a blues jam and IMO it sounded terrible, all top and bottom with no mids ( no fundamental thump).
I've had a couple of j basses over the year and sold them off because i just prefer the tone of my P bass and Ripper.
I really want to have a J bass in my collection just for the tonal diversity.
My dilemma is whether to upgrade the pickups and pots or just flip it and make a little money on it.
Upgrading the pickups will cost close to what i paid for the bass.
I'm sure if I had a 60's J bass i'll love it.
Do you think this is worth upgrading?

Sa-weet sounding Ripper. Really hear it at around 5:15
