For what it is worth, I plugged the Flamingo with Thunderbuckers directly into Cubase. Then did the same with the 2001. I screwed up the export and closed Cubase without saving the files. Operator error. Anyway, to my ears, with the same strings, the '01 TB+ pickups are right there with Thunderbuckers. They are a little noise and a little brighter. Same punch, same tight bass, same tight treble, similar overtones.
I may have cured myself of GAS. I didn't cure myself of being a luddite. That is the problem with not using a tool like Cubase all the time. It is way too easy to forget a detail.

Hope there is reverse flow of the Chucky magic flowing into those tubes.

There is a reason I have resisted going to that shop.Oh I will, have wanted a short scale bass for quite awhile now, playing that one at Mike and Mike's obviously didn't help.....

Truly, it's worth a visit, they're very nice folks. Just ogling the guitars is worth it!
There was a lot more fondling than ogling.

I know that is surely true. But I keep managing to stomp out the GAS flames.
I don't care if it's stock or not. That color is gorgeous.
