I like the picture you just posted
But how precious is this picture!![]()

Thanks guys, hopefully the cool story here is this rebop was made the year of his birth so im hoping to pass the bass along to him one day, and he'll have these pictures of him as my little guy with it, he's already growing too fast for me![]()
They wouldn't be flush mount if they are the dual design because it would kill the opportunity to use a regular strap. I only asked PJ about it because I wanted to send him a set of Dunlops to save me from switching out the Schallers when I got the bass. Website still says Schallers, so who knows. Maybe they were just considering it.



I'd say that the reason for the switch is because of popular demand.That's usually the reason Stuart & PJ make changes.
Beautiful basses Anton! To calculate the year of the bass you add a 1 to the front number, for example yours is 1446, add a 1 to the 1 on the front 1+1=2, 2446, so it's most likely a 2002. Make sense? LimaGuy or jps I believe had gotten this formula from PJ.
Thanks Ice but this formula works for Euros I believe, because my NS-2 is from Kramer era and it obviously could not be made in 2002, I think it's around 1983-84. I'll pm Todd, he knows this for sure![]()

And hence, the real reason companies sometimes do things that make you scratch your head.They do seem to be good buddies with Dunlop/MXR so it would make sense to me.

Sorry, but after 25 years of dealing with Spector, this is not the reason they (or many other companies), make changes.....

And the discussions both here and other threads on TB show by a wide margin Dunlops are not the "popular" choice.
