    Thanks for the reply. I have the GHS Pressurewounds on another Mikro and much looser feel. The description on the Brite Flats sounds right....

    Help identifying these strings PLEASE....

    I got these used here on Talkbass years ago and have no memory of what they are but LOVE them. They are short scale (on a Ibanez Mikro) and have a wonderful feel. Nice tension on the higher side for short scale. The silk at the tuners is a light grey/blue color. No silk at the nut with uncolored...

    One Control Red Crimson Bass Preamp

    I'm intrigued and confused by this pedal. Is it just a glorified tone control or maybe an Amp B-15 emulator or what? The few demos on Youtube sound good but is this thing worth $145? Is there a magic sauce going on hear that I'm not picking up on in the demos? Owners care to chime in? Thanks.

    I didn't build it. The guy who built it for me didn't say what the bridge is but the tailpiece is a slightly modified Hofner.

    The official "Show your basses" thread part 19!

    It's a 1968 Coral Danelectro body that was made in Japan. They used it to make guitars I believe but it was right when Dano went out of business . There were a few of the unused bodies that made their way into project guitars and basses. Mine was built by a guy that used to work at Subway...

    The Official Short Scale Bass Club -- Part 4

    Yep. The Jerry Jones started out a righty, the DC and the U2 started out as lefty guitars and the Coral '68 hollowbody was made from parts. The 2 Longhorns are 2015 Korean reissues.
