86 g
gonna speak to vakl about possibly upgrading the elctronics
i was looking at that series 1 on ebay but i have too many concerns and non replied to emails form the seller.
mica said iwas looking at 1200 is an upgrade was needed on the series... too much and the silence form the seller is deafening,,, its a sign bud!

i saw your posting in another thread and when i saw the pickup arrangement on this was not the norm... well whats wrong with having a 4 string..
and the seller assures me its quite the looker in person...
be nice to see what happened to the vermillion top after 20 years...

Off topic slightly - I got JGB live at shoreline yesterday. Very nice concert. Only issue I have is that I can hardly hear John Kahns bass. Jerry looks very happy in this film.

Hi Jeff,
nice bass!
as a fellow persuader owner w/P & J pups, pls post upgrade details. it will save duplicating inquiries to alembic. in a differnt vein, how big a difference (weight/size) is this bass compared to your Bal K? thanks for the insight!
jim b..

flaxattack · « **Reply #11 on:** November 14, 2005, 08:54:01 PM »

the bal k is round 9lbs.. havent a clue on the persuader...
do you live in ct too?

ctjim · « **Reply #12 on:** November 15, 2005, 06:27:08 PM »

Jeff,
oh yeah, born, raised, and... more than likely will be planted here, LOL. which by the way, welcome to the state. hope your move and relocate went well. if i can assist with any CT nuances/info, give a scream. in the meantime, lets hope that new alembic arrives soon.

Seems like there was a place called Black Eyed Sally's that had an open mic in Hartford.

But, well, it's Hartford. Oh really, you work at an insurance company?
