    I would be keen for it, unfortunately I'm in Australia, import duties here are a pain.

    Which Custom Japense Bass Company?

    I bought a Dragonfly CJ5 recently at a very good price, its my first 5 string. Bought it to see how I find the 5 string world and then upgrade to a Lakland, Warwick or Musicman 5 string. Owned lots of high end basses, from Warwick Infinity's to Lakland 44.04's, Elricks and Musicmans the quality...

    P-bass tone in a modern body shape

    I bought this recently, it's Rob Elrick's take on a P bass, old school tone, modern improvements including a zero fret, deep neck pocket, thinner body and angled head stock. Sounds amazing and weighs 7.5 lbs. I have owned P basses before but never gelled with them, this however is a keeper.

    Elrick...nice bass

    Bought this recently, took a punt, purchased it, took two weeks to freight across the country, and within the first two minutes of playing it, it became my number one. Haven't stopped playing it since, absolutely fantastic bass. Totally agree about TI Flats, first thing I put on it, this is what...

    Gallien Krueger Club. GK Rules !

    I bought a Fusion 550 new with a 212 cab and added a second cab later, despite owning quite a few other heads, I always come back to the 550. Yes it's a bit bigger than a D class, but it sounds so good, the weight issue soon goes away. I have a 410 4 ohms cab too, it isn't as smooth sounding as...

    Elrick: Great Basses!

    Bought this recently, was looking at buying a P bass, saw it come up for sale, looked at the Ed Friedland review of it on YouTube and took a punt on it. Fantastic bass, sits so well in the mix, very quickly become my main bass. Definitely a keeper.

    Thanks. And a rosewood fretboard which I was wanting too, totally out of the blue as I had resigned myself to waiting for a new build to get a Superlight with a P pickup.

    New Bass Day Was in the process of ordering a custom TT Superlight with twin precision pickups in it, but while in negotiations these two beauties came into the shop. I bought the Sunburst one, only a week to wait while it's transported to me, a whole lot better than 18 months. Can hardly wait.

    How does the double precision pickups work for you?

    Fantastic bass, what are the specs on it and the colour combination? Great looking bass, we'll done on your choices. I noticed a lot of people going for P Tone in the neck and SFII's in middle and bridge, do the SFII's over power the P Tone? The pickup specific sheet shows it would, but as we...
