A true work-horse bass with that vintage, original Fender tone. Everyone should have a 60's pbass.

Ive been a HUGE Warwick fan since the late 90's... make sure its German made... makes a difference. You just cant go wrong with one of these in your arsenal.

Firstly, its a BIG bass... feels way longer than 34" and it weighs a ton. If you are still with me here, get one. The tones on this beast are MASSIVE and uber versatile. The phase switch is a lot of fun and playing with the tone knobs either keeps the humbuckers rocking or changes them to a single-coil option.

The overall feel of the RI is amazing... neck is beefy and sturdy, yet fast. The Nitro finish is amazing. the case candy, the case itself sets up for a fantastic little time capsule package. Oh, and it sounds amazing!

Unknown to many bassists is this obscure 15" bass combo made by Lafayette and sold via Univox in the mid 60s. The specifications are nearly impossible to find online, but I believe its packing 50+ watts with (2) 6L6GC power tubes. All tube, point-to-point wiring and 15" Jensen speaker. Warm, classic tones that rival your well known Ampeg portaflex units.

This pedal has fantastic depth as a fuzzy, self-oscillation, reverby, chorusy, swirly, juicy pedal. It can be simple or it can be crazy. Give it a shot!
