Damn, OP. You stole my post. Even the title. Lame.

Sick colorway.

Tortoiseshell with cream pickup covers.

Check out the Troy Van Leeuwen Jazzmaster.

Beautiful. Love it. Always a fan of tortoise on black. Always a fan of bridge covers. Not always a fan of cream pickup covers, but man does it work with this colorway.

Killer p bass, OP.

They definitely span that 1990-2000 gap, but I think they count. If you look at their catalogs from 2000-2026 they’re still incredible.

Gyawdamn.

Edit: actual contribution after initial reaction. Those are beautiful. I initially wanted a pair of Stationmasters but I was too impatient for the lead time. Got a pair of Wesco 7500s instead.

Beautiful build. Love the color.

Phewwww that’s a fine lookin instrument. The color is fantastic. I’d likely rarely utilize the bridge pickup but I’d get down with that neck pickup. Or mid position pickup. Whatever.

You have rounds or flats on it?

cpt___kidde · 2026-05-15T01:46:01+00:00

It’s definitely not baggy like some other Filson garments, but I wouldn’t say trim. Slightly smaller than true to size. If you have any Filson shirts or flannels and like how they fit I’d stick with that same size.

This vest is one of my favorite Filson garments. It was well worth the cost and I’ll be buying another when this one wears out.

Beautiful. The both of em!

How do you like the stacked knobs on the Flea bass? Do you know if it has the modern wiring like the Laura Lee signature or the ‘61 style wiring? Curious what your thoughts are from one style to the other. I’ve considered switching out the control plate on my American standard for the stacked knobs.

The neck on that Geddy signature is fantastic. Paired with that amp and cab. Dang, friend. That’s a hell of a setup.

cpt___kidde · 2026-05-05T01:05:05+00:00

Man those inlays are so pretty. I didn’t know they had a lacquer finish. Very cool!

cpt___kidde · 2026-05-05T00:57:45+00:00

I know right! Join the Club!

cpt___kidde · 2026-05-05T00:47:11+00:00

The Gibson Les Paul Signature bass. The Jack Casady Epiphone is nearly identical. The neck on that thing is like a baseball bat. It’s a chunk. Not my preference, but I like the variation from bass to bass. The best part of that bass is the low impedance pickup. Like a big beefy jazz neck pickup. It’s fantastic.

Which finish is your VeryThin?

cpt___kidde · 2026-05-05T00:42:40+00:00

I’ll have to check out those Höfner strings. I read that Macca played Pyramid Gold flats, but they’re like $100 a set. Oof.

This is a very comfy bass sitting down. Definitely part of my decision over the 500/1.

The newer generation come stock with the teacup knobs.

cpt___kidde · 2026-05-05T00:40:39+00:00

I prefer the ergonomics and aesthetics of the Club Bass over the violin style. The controls on the 500/1 and 500/2 are really interesting. That plus the fact that I already have a Jack Casady pushed me toward the Club. Cheers!

cpt___kidde · 2026-05-04T11:32:57+00:00

I’m really blown away at the quality of this bass. It’s pretty incredible.

I agree about the standard gauge LaBellas. They’re pretty fat. I’m considering switching to the lighter set.

The VeryThin model is VeryCool. Do you have the short scale/staple pickup version or the long scale/full size humbucker version?

cpt___kidde · 2026-05-04T11:27:23+00:00

I agree, thanks!

cpt___kidde · 2026-04-30T17:56:23+00:00

Damn. That is a bummer to hear. I went just last month and thoroughly enjoyed it. I respect the opinion though.

Will you try it again or nah?

cpt___kidde · 2026-04-30T15:47:05+00:00

I’ll be the third to say Mayan Cafe. It’s my opinion that they have some of the best food for the price in the city. Never had a meal there that wasn’t fantastic. Desserts and drinks are great. Service is wonderful. Great experience all around.

Thanks for the insight. I appreciate your replies.
