  Nice looking/ sounding bass! Great demo!! Can you tell the weight and string spacing please? I found one of these tonight - quite cheap and I’m thinking about getting it now. Yea - your demo sold :) Thank you 🙏 🙏🙏

  Can't bow them, the tension is medium. Evah Slaps have less tension and feel more supple.

  Hey Pete. Just saw this. Congratulations! I’ve had a ‘15 since they came out. I have 13 other Thunderbirds. But my ‘15 is the best of the lot. My No. 1. Best bass I’ve ever owned. Incredibly versatile tones. Mine is under eight pounds. No neck dive. Best neck I’ve ever played.

  Hey mate thanks for making this video! What a nice tone, sounds like a machine. I’ve been looking into getting one of these myself. How does it compare to your Japanese basses? Ive got a fender pb-62 and a pb-70 and find the 62 has a neck a bit too wide and the pb70 is a bit too heavy. Would you say this is a lightweight bass?

• 
  @petem8630Ай бұрын

  Thanks for the message, I sold the MF a few months ago. For me, it's all about woods, so any newish Squier i play feels light and airy (too me) the older Japanese basses feel heavier almost moist feeling as opposed to dry feeling of newer basses. When I'm talk about woods I'm talking about neck wood. Something about cured maple and old rosewood. I have 5 Precisions they all have strengths in different areas. I would happily gig with a MF.

  @@petem8630 thanks for the reply man, I totally get what you’re talking about when you say almost moist feeling on the neck, I can feel that difference when comparing my 1989 pb62 to my 2002 pb70! Older basses seem to break in like a worn shoe and respond better to a stroke on a string.

  Hi Pete , I found your test of a precision bass 79 with dimarzios from the 80's, I would like to ask if you have a similar test with the original pickups. Great instrument,congrats,great sound(you play a bit in the style of Boby Vega😉) I haven't had time to look through your collection,but I saw some more precs and thunder b's in there,so hopefully next time there will be more time for that,thanks.

  It's nice to see a Kay bass on youtube. I bought my Kay C-1 in 1962(?) for $200, $50 for the bow. It has helped me earn a lot more than that through the years but now it just leans in the corner next to the piano. It has earned a rest and so have I. But . . . I learned something very interesting many years ago, while changing strings I discovered that it had a much bigger sound and much more resonance with only 3 strings instead of 4 strings. I wish I had learned that when I first bought it. I would have played my gigs with 3 strings and made life easier for myself.🤔
