Ok Since that quote was resurrected I'd like to go on record that I don't normally go around "picking up" young men at the inner city Train stops...........
But since there was a dog in the car I would say yes that had to be me.

HA! I knew I recognized you! I'm pretty sure we had met earlier that week at orientation or something.

Jimmy got the Bent Plate bridges in.. and he installed them on 2 of the KBP5 basses... i think its not only sounds good but it looks right too.. those basses will be at NAMM.. i will take pics then..
I can't wait to see them! Although I have no problem with the bridge he's using now, it will be cool to see AC basses take yet another step into vintage styling.

there is a pic of the sunburst kbp5 with the vintage bridge on the alleva site today..
i think i will have it by Tuesday
excellent!
and for the record, I think that basic/typical bent plate bridges don't get enough respect. although they might seem a tad out of place on a higher price tagged bass..... they work, and work great!
There's is a Video of that bass off the site.... Strung With Flats......
Uhh.. Ohhh... I'm in trouble now.....I was doing great with those aggresive Rounds on the Black bass, I was feeling strong .......But now
Damm.

That's awesome! That fits the vibe much better than the Hipshot B's
Can I ask where Jimmy is sourcing these bridges?

Just wanted to publicly post how great Jimmy"s work is. I was by the shop today and played a few of his basses, as they were getting ready to ship for NAMM.
The sunburst P5 is a great sounding and playing instrument. . Tone and workmanship is just superb!!
I also took a few "test drives" on some of Jimmy's other models. The vintage jazz and the 70's model jazz basses captured the weight, feel ,and tone of their respective counterparts.
The quality of Jimmy's instruments are consistent from bass to bass.
Couldn't of happen to a nicer guy!
Peace
