GAS - Gear Acquisition Syndrome (Part 1)

I myself am a sucker for a Tele Bass so I would do it but that’s a low bar

He is bringing it in the morning. I just ordered strap locks (Ernie Ball black) and a Levy’s 4.5 inch strap. Gotta dress it up.

I’ve read online that the Quarter Pounders were hum free. Looking to hear your report on how it sounds

I have Quarter Pounder’s in the P/J and they are hum free no matter the position. P, J or blended.

Yeah I have Quarter Pounders in my Double P, and being split coils they don’t have any hum; but the 51 single coil design is prone to hum. I have heard the 51 QP doesn’t have it, and if it’s anything like the QP J (which I don’t have) then that’s good. Thanks

I have a Warmoth P/J from him and it is my number one. If this one is to the same levels of my P/J, it is going to be a good one.

The company that made the neck seems to make them at a super high level of quality! I also checked out the reviews on the necks. Over 2000 reviews that rave about the quality and perfection they are built with.

Thank you for the heads up @eric.kiser, I had a chance to use the TLC today and really like it. I needed a compressor on my pedal board and the sale made it a no brainer. Careful with the candy, I think it is made in China :nauseated_face:

The bass is here. Pictures did not do it justice. It is beautiful and the neck is like a work of art. The pickup is a Fender Custom Shop quarter pounder. I looked it up and it exists.

Actually, I took it out of the case he gave me and took pics. Maybe not the best quality but here they are. The neck is beautiful.
