PF is more easy on the ears. Relaxing. Rush is tense, haunting, sometimes uneasy and complicated

No heavy cabs for me. I’m a bit older, still playing, but do not want to break my back. I bought an GR212Aero cab. Loud, good sounding and I can lift it with one arm/hand!

1970. I was 16. Höfner bass and Davoli amp.

Sonia and Mo at Nordstrand did all they could to help me with the trouble I had with my Cat. Together with my tech we solved the problem with the switch. It was mainly an earthing and shielding issue which made the switch malfunction. There is an Atlantic Ocean between Nordstrand and me, that...

Greywoulf, first: this is a great bass. It plays, looks and sounds fantastic! But: mine was from the early batches in 2020. From the start I had problems with the switches. The basses are built in Indonesia and I think the tropical humidity conditions may cause the eg. PU board switch to...

Where can I find the “Albert” mods?

My Acinonyx from August 2020 plays great, sounds great and looks great. BUT, the electronic parts inside (except ofcourse the fantastic PU’s) are not so great! Bad switches, sloppy soldering.The pick-up four way switch is a pain ita. The original one in my Cat wasn’t 100% ok. From Mo at...

I play an Acinonyx on a GR700 amp with a GR 212 enclosure. Would love to invite you to stand next to me when I play. Fasten your seatbelts!

Would you be so kind as to keep me informed? If more Cat owners would like to have a Hipshot Dtuner it could be more lucrative for them to produce a batch.

How did you order the D tune? I saw bassplayer Oscar in a Nordstrand YTfilm with one which had the same shape as the Cat’s tuners

Next week my guitartech will have a good look at the Cat and customize things for me. I found out that it’s not shielded on the inside and the volume pot needs tightning

Do the Hipshot D-tuners have the same shape as the Hipshots on the Cat?

No, I play with my thumb (a bit Sting-style) and pick with my fingers.

Thank you for your replay. My Cat was one of the first batches, maybe the problem was solved in later editions. I’ll try some polishing.

672184D7-AFA4-404E-BE7B-F3C58A6CB691 by Janderman posted Sep 24, 2021 at 11:27 AM Thank you for your reply. At last a serious one. The edges of the holes where the strings come out are very sharp. I play with my thumb and a sort of fingerpicking and the right, fleshy, side of my hand leans on...

Bridge Acino

Acino

Well, I had quite a laugh with the replies to my question, they were hilarious. But now I’m done. Goodbye all at the club.

Who has the same little problem with the Acinonyx: I lean with my right hand against the bridge where the stringholes are. These holes have sharp edges. I’ve put some teansparent tape over it, but wonder if I can have my guitartech polish the holes edges.

How things can differ, I hate that mute. It gives a short dampened sound. Best mute: right side of my right hand leaning on the strings

Bought in september 2020. My Acinonyx with GR800-AT212. The best set I ever had in 50 years! What’s my number Dave?

Pfew...thanks DaveSill! Will post a picture and ask for a number. Who gives me that number?

I have a simple question to which I cant find an answer: how do I become a member of the Official Nordstrand Acinonyx Club? Sorry to bother you with this, but I thought it might be an exclusive club for which you have to be invited

A sunburst short scale Jazz Bass. I know some where made but I cannot find it.

I bought a Fender Mustang PJ. It was customized with Seymour Duncan Quaterpounders, a Gotoh bridge AND Hipshot lightweight tuners! No neckdiving and the Mustang has a beautiful small neck. A joy to play, along with my Acinonyx. gggg

Mark King? I’m not the slapping type, but Mark deserves to be in this list. Indeed: Nathan East is missing. Lee Sklar in the top-10. And Rinus Gerritsen (Golden Earring)!

I’m using a Hotone for bassrecording. Modified Fender Mustang in the Hotone, “send” out to UA Apollo 8 line in. Software limiting and compression from LA2A. Pretty good basstracks!
