One P one Jazz and....
I'm looking for one "sensible" gigging bass, and then some wacky stuff for fun.
I suggest a German-made Warwick Corvette Standard (the fully passive version). MEC Dynamic Correction J pickups out. Duncan, DiMarzio, Bartolini or Aguilar pickups in.
If you are a silly, twisted boy, consider an Ovation Magnum (either variant).
On any four stringer with 3.5" soapbar pickups, it would be possible to install Duncan NYC pickups and some smartass coil switching to cover most sonic eventualities - including, obviously, J Bass sounds.
If you fancy a Gibson EB mudbucker sound, consider installing one of those huge pickups in a '51 P Bass and wiring the controls like a Yamaha Attitude bass.
I really like the Guild Starfires as well (the standard ones)
Been gassing for a semi for a while, but I'm actually starting to wonder what I'd actually use it for.
I find myself all over the neck on my Precision - so much so that the conversation I've entered in to is for an AVRI 62 Precision (I know, I know) - it's at the right price and it's a gigging bass primarily.
But just to keep you all on your toes, I dropped something else into a website basket tonight, and it's not moved out yet. I'm actually thinking of pulling the trigger and seeing what it's like - polar opposite of a vintage style big fat precision.
Alembic? None more 70s!
Have looked at the long scale DC 59 bass a lot recently and I'm sorely tempted..
However, this is what's been in my basket for a few days now..
