DolganoFF Posted March 2, 2017 Share Posted March 2, 2017 To be frank, it isn't my best sounding bass, but the comfort of the shorter 32" and slimmer neck is worth it. And it is "mine" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skitzigol Posted March 2, 2017 Share Posted March 2, 2017 What a delightful bunch of basses! I also heard that there will be a St. Vincent signature 32" on the way soon! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul S Posted March 4, 2017 Share Posted March 4, 2017 I had the camera out for some other stuff for sale so took some shots of my beautiful Yamaha SB-35. Bucket loads of mojo! And, boy, does it sing!!

Donnyboy Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 [quote name='pfretrock' timestamp='1488467138' post='3249214'] Neck pup a bit muddy? There is a topic on here somewhere about rewiring it from serial to parallel. Worth doing! [/quote] I've always played it with both pups on. I haven't played it in a while actually & think it might be time to give it a bash to refresh my memory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
funkydario Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 A black Fender MIM The Urge is on the way to me...flats are waiting for him...and I am wondering about putting a P pick up between the 2 J...like the MIA Urge. Asking myself if the classic position for P pup would it be possible....any advice ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] You should be able to add a P in same position as the USA Urge but that's much closer to the bridge than on a standard P.

weefunkateer Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 [quote name='Fisheth' timestamp='1488033870' post='3245222'] Anyone tried a 5 string 32 bass? What's it like? [/quote] As a wee man and a 5 string man I've found medium is defo the best overall fit for me - currently have a custom Maruszczyk Elwood Absolution 5A 32" which is now my go to fiver, along with a Warwick Rockbass Corvette Basic 5 which is up for sale in the classifieds if anyone fancies a medium-sized dalliance with a 5th string...

skitzigol Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 I wonder if we could get a Basschatter group discount if we all order 32" Maruszczyks! 😃 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
funkydario Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 here it is...Biggie !! Super light , really nice neck. Pups will go soon , thinking at Haeussel to replace them. It needs some neck adjustement from my luthier but overall very good condition. Found a nice JB sound turning the lows all the way up on the preamp...Highs used like a tone control but generally a bit harsh. This one is definetly goin to be passive...and maybe I will add a P pup in the middle. [attachment=240291:20170312_083338.jpg] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually prefer the look of it without the P pickup in the middle, I have no idea how these are wired but it might sound great in series.
