    Only through in-person deals. All were super cool.

    Is the HX Stomp still a viable “center” to base a pedalboard from?

    Sounds like robots and stuff. Hope that helps.

    Bright J bass pickups

    Upper mids bright? Treble bright? Lack of lows can also be perceived as bright. For upper mids I'd go Nordstrand 60s or SV. For treble I'd go Duncan Apollos. The Aguilar DCBJs are the closest passive pickup you'll find that get close to EMGs.

    Graphite? Roasted? I need stability!

    I live a bit further south than you. And I also had a few 90s Stingrays with unstable necks. Not uncommon for that era. Any roasted neck would be fine. Any neck with stabilizing rods will also be fine (Warmoth, USA Fender).

    Another New Cirrus Demo

    The best playing bass I ever owned was an OG Cirrus. Absolutely flawless.

    Not getting the p bass sound I want from my Yamaha bb234

    The P pickup is a but further toward the neck than a traditional P bass. Also, the pots might be a different value. The stock pickups in those are ceramic, not alnico. They sound good but not quite vintage P to me.

    Would a Stingray HH sound like a Stingray H with the bridge pickup soloed?

    Zero difference.

    Class D amplifier noise?

    Disagree. But do let me know when you get this all set up. I'd love to come test your theory.

    Class D amplifier noise?

    My personal experience and opinion is "indiscriminate crap"? Lol. Didn't mean to hurt your feelings.

    Class D amplifier noise?

    Correct, never said it did. But IME, their execution of class D is inferior to their older stuff.

    Class D amplifier noise?

    I love GK. Long time user of their 800 and 700 RBs. Their class D stuff is not in the same league IMO. I've had the MB 200, 500, Fusion, and a combo. All had issues, all were noisy.

    Sunn 100s project worth it?

    Absolutely not.

    Another buyer beware thread

    This happened to me on ebay last year. The tracking details for the bass showed a weight of 1lb and an origination from China, not USA. That was enough to get my money back pretty fast.
