I love my Traynor 15's. They sound great with my shuttle and Marshall SLP. They are well made......super efficient(LOUD).........and they produce fabulous toneZ that won't break your wallet. [Invalid or Expired Link Removed]

ALL basses need to be played first or have a good return policy no matter where they are built....IMO. That said.....the quality control of MIJ's is hard to beat. IMHO.:D

Fenders are great...so don't get me wrong, but my SG's give me the sound and feel I like and that is no "fad" or ab"normal"ity. That doesn't mean I won't bust out some Cream licks from time to time though.:D Very true...the SG's are not the same as EB's, but I don't need them to be. I use a...

The Orange Crush amps are pretty cool. It should sound really nice. Your accessories list looks pretty complete...just keep it simple at first. I'd say NO to your fretless idea for now....haha. You'll have a working and very good sounding rig to start off. Just add and upgrade things as...

I called Genz Benz earlier this week and asked about using 12at7's in my shuttle 6. Jeff said that it would not necessarily effect the preamp tone but would produce less gain(60% less). I have some JAN 12at7's sitting around.....and I will give it a shot very soon. BTW...Jeff said to be...

Two hipshot supertone bridges should be in my mailbox today. I am hoping for a major improvement over the 3-point bridges on my SG RI's.

:D....Probably so, but I know 6-string SG neck joints have been known to dislike thicker gauge's. We shall see...haha.:)
