    Hey guys, As someone who is unfortunate enough not to have played or even seen one in the flesh, can someone explain why these instruments get such high acclaim on here and in the pro circuit? I mean no disrespect to any owners, I have only heard one before...

    Excellente! A good insight into sound comparison, it's hard to do each instrument justice in so little time

    Pickup height

    alstocko replied to gub's topic in Bass Guitars

    Yep, the bass string is your lowest string, and the treble your highest. I think they measure the height with a capo on the first fret if I'm not mistaken...

    I wasn't upset, I just wanted to clarify to give machines a rest! I didn't want a full on debate, just giving you some pointers. I can come across rude sometimes. Sorry

    [quote name='dave_bass5' timestamp='1342736967' post='1740386'] Considering you have listed these items on here with a price, yet you won't accept that price, you abviously do think this an auction site, and that isn't the way things work here. [/quote] Exactly what I mean. By the way the rules are worded and the rest of the ads are, it's not an eBay promotion site, it's a sales site.

    Ok, it is etiquette NOT to make bidding wars here. If you want to sell your gear here you put up the one price that you will accept for it, and then one person can buy it from you at that price. If you want people to bid on it, stick to eBay.

    I have an LMT 500w and it's played some huge gigs with just one 1x12' cab! TBH I hardly ever use the tube anymore, as I realised it's a bit "muddy" for my liking (I do like tubes!). I highly rate Epifani cabs, couldn't stress how good they are. I rte them above barefaced and vanderkley. But... horses for courses. I would go for an LM3 (or LM2 on the preowned market and an Epifani UL2 122 (or the newer UL3 series). I would sell/trade my LMT if I new I could get an LM2/3 quickly.

    I use an Epifani UL2 112 with my LMT (500w). Blows the barefaced cans out of the water tone wise (IMO of course!) but is only rated at 300w. Try lots out man, I stroke lucky over BC, but Matt Garrison uses mine

    If you're into the modern stuff another +1 for Badu and D'angelo (Pino + Charlie Hunter, even if he's not a "real" bass player). The groove is immense. You don't NEED flats, but with covers it gets you a lot closer to the original tone. 5 string could be useful.
