First let it be said that three of my many bass idols are on this post (Jauqo, Jean Baudin, and John Turner). Given this had been in person I would shake your hand or bow down to you or something, but its not, so I wont. Secondly, despite the fact that Alizee is married, she would gladly leave him for me, because I'm cool like that I wish....
Thirdly, Lokire, your Ken Lawrence is very, very cool. Its very similar to something I have in mind that will be built one day. Would you mind giving the specs? Or at least what the top wood is? And one final question.... what pickups are in Marchlewski basses?

wow, thanks snakeanthony. honored to be mentioned in such illustrious company.

Anytime John. Being kickass will get you on a few lists like that That and you have a very sweet collection.

....And one final question.... what pickups are in Marchlewski basses?

As the urologist said to the octagenarian "DEPENDS"

My Marchlewski has bartolini pickups and pre-amp. The one that AJ Brown had and recently sold (I forget who it was made for) had Nordstrands. Bottom line is, you can tell Jake what you want.

Peace,

James

I love the look of that GB sshorepunk. I've asked a few people so I might as well ask you. What are the specs on that? At least body woods.

mine may all have a similar body style, but they are far from the same bass. 2 are hollow bodies, half are fretless, all have different electronics and pickups. some have synth pickups built into the bridge. they all sound very different.

I've been wondring John, do you remember what bass you used to record Versatile Residue (if you could be a lil specific, you do kinda have a lot of basses... )?

yep - the fretted on the ground in the picture - the red and brown one. it's tuned low f#-b-e-a-d-g-c.
