So... I picked her up today!!

ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS!! Much much better than I expected (not that I expected little from Jon Shuker!!) but it sounds amazing with the active EMGs (massive sound difference compared to EMG-HZs), the neck feels absolutely brilliant. It feels earthy and natural like a warwick, but has the slim and fast profile of a jazz bass. I couldn't possibly be happier!
Jon is a really nice guy and we ended up chatting for ages about allsorts! From cars to shipping and taxes from America! Very very knowledgable man and I was very very impressed by all the other basses he had there. If you're ever in Sheffield, give him a ring and go and see him if just for a chat and a try of his basses
Also, ALEX: Did you get my text?
Any questions or thoughts on it (good or bad!) ask/speak away!
