What's the most over-rated bass, or bass related product???
Kev replied to silverfoxnik's topic in General Discussion
the mid control on my stingray is probably the one i mess round with the most -
blimey, thats a bit unique for a fender isnt it?!
-
Nice and rough, mostly out of key noodling with the llama , starts off with clean bass. All played finger style Stingray 5 > red llama > trace elliot > tapco mixer > pc At my fave setting, drive at pretty much minimum. have to admit when recording this i was wondering why i was selling it. Make sure you listen through a good set of speakers!
-
how does this particular juggernaut sound? from what iv heard they vary, alot
-
have squier jv's suddenly gone out of fashion???
-
the red llama clone im selling in the sales forum could suit you, at low gain adds a dirty grind to the tone of your bass.

never tried it, but this could just be normal, usually a common feature of cheaper octavers though i would think, not an ebs...
-
i do like the idea, from what iv seen that knob is very, very fiddly, but other than that (pending it works of course) i can see it being a great way of changing tuning fast mid set
-
no real low end loss at all
-
this isnt my opinion, but i think many people, mainly non-bassists, will see bassists that use a pick as 'failed guitarists' IMO i do prefer playin with fingers, but sometimes you just need that edgy tone that only a pic (or very long fingernails) can deliver

4 strings sound better than 5 string basses. Discuss.
Kev replied to EBS_freak's topic in General Discussion
some people cant play 5 strings properly and get confused with muting the strings etc, hence why it may not appear to sound as good. A competant player would not say that one sounded better than the other, just that the 5 string with the low b/high c is more flexible. Im not a competant player, so i say 5 is better -

Kev replied to silverfoxnik's topic in General Discussion
+1 for passive basses and ashdown amps il add £2000 + instruments and fender copies (sadowsky particularly) -
bump, some interest but thats about it £40 shipped, i may still sell the vesta if someone wants them both, if so £65 shipped
-
im not bothered now tbh, the bass didnt get damaged in transit so it was all good, of course would have been a completly different story had it been damaged in transit...

[quote name='benwhiteuk' post='371493' date='Jan 5 2009, 10:41 PM']You’ve got to read all the T&C’s mate – a lot of couriers don’t insure musical instruments over about £150 but they’ll happily take your cash for it. If you’re giving APC a -1 for this, then realistically a -1 should go to all couriers who don’t insure musical instruments cos they’ll all be happy to take the cash and not provide the insurance.[/quote] i dealed with them at their depot. i was asked the contents of the package, and i replied bass in a hardcase, he then asked did i want insurance, and i said yeah, its worth £700, so he said itd be insured for £1000 for £xx (cant remember). Whether i read t&c or not, i dont think that is acceptable.
-
i think iv already said this, but since there doesnt appear to be any negative for apc, they are gettin a -1 from me, sold me £1000 insurance for my bass, and i later found out they didnt insure instruments!

someone in surrey should snap this up, cant go much wrong for that price -

im pretty sure muscle museum is the bass line and a piano, the bassline being heavily compressed as tom said, with a nice bit of overdrive in the chorus

[quote name='Buzz' post='370536' date='Jan 5 2009, 12:20 AM']Rough guide, my personal opinion, worst at the top: Affinity Standard Artist* Deluxe* CV* VM* *All roughly on par with each other [b]Rough guide mind you, individual models may vary[/b][/quote] thats why its always best to try several of each type before buying one of them, some vm's could be dogs, and some afinity's could be swans, ya just dont know
