wonder how much a refin of that caliber (if available) would cost in Spain…

With all the FSO talk of late I used this the other day. I have some Roto 66 NPS and this Pbass mat have never sounded so good. I was seriously digging what I was hearing.
omg, it’s gorgeous…what year? maple fb (Roger Waters) on those looked really good as well…. you sure got some winners D…
Can’t say I’ve ever heard of that band. But I think I’m in love…. With the drummer! He’s a beast on that throne!
I’ve always been drawn to female lead vocal on hard rock. Jumping down the rabbit hole with ya brother.
I have a vintage one (80?) that I had installed on my Gretsch at Las Olas Music (where Jaco used to repair woodwinds in the 70’s) brand new, I recently (5 years ago) had it taken off to have 2 Bartolini soapbars installed…..PM me if you want to borrow or buy or whatever, it’s has some string (rounds) scoring but otherwise works perfect…..Those are the things I'm curious about - I think it could be a combo of different? internal pre-amp and the stainless covers.......unfortunately, I don't currently have a set of EMG standard J pickups to compare against
If I run my Ibanez with the RTs eq-flat, through the standard, non-pad input on my amps, it sounds pretty nice & clean, even with a pick, if I don't get too aggro with it.
But, boost the bass, just about the equivalent of one, maybe 1 1/2, knob-mark, and it adds in a lovely amount of grit to go with the added bottom end. Love it!
Wow! Only 35 posts in the last 24 hours. We’re slacking off a bit. Must be the absence of @MCF and @PillO.
You're speaking in past tense, does that mean that Mike died?
Probably more than you think, for example 6000$ would be around 6000€ which would be around a million of Spain old coin: the Pesetas. For reference 1 Euro is around 166,386 pesetas.

DISREGARD MY POST BEFORE THIS ONE, I made a mistake converting the coins. Probably more than you think, for example 6000$ would be around 6000€ which would be around a million of Spain old coin: the Pesetas. For reference 1 Euro is around 166,38 pesetas.

Well, I've never been to Spain
But I kinda like the music
Say the ladies are insane there
And they sure know how to use it
I wouldn't know about Ladies or Women considering I'm gay, so that's one headache I'm spared from.
Thanks Chuck. It's an '05. Not much love for that era that had the S1 switch. Push the center of the vol and it changes the wiring from series or parallel mode, thicker and bigger to less bass and more bright, would be how I would describe it. I don't use it very often, but have on occasion. Most love to hate them. I don't get it. Just leave it alone and it sounds like a typical thick Pbass.
Kind of a sentimental bass. I hadn't been playing for years and I loaned my '78 Pbass with an "A" neck and DiMarzios to a guy at church. (It was my main gigging bass and sounded and played fantastic.) The church was broken into and that bass was stolen. It was good in that it got me interested in playing again after looking into info for insurance. I got a G&L L2k blue burst with the insurance money. Months later after starting to play again, and at a local shop, out of the blue Sandra said, "you miss having a Precision don't you? Do you like that one?" I knew the guy and we made a good deal and it came home. It's great to play and sounds great as well. People dis those years, but there's not a thing wrong with mine and it's a joy to play--for a couple reasons.

Yes, here's an article about him.
Mike Lull, the boss of bass guitars for bands like Heart, Cheap Trick and Pearl Jam, dies at 66
Mike was just the nicest man, words fail in describing him - I'm welling up to cry just writing this, more than two years after his passing.
