it's mocking up on a Sadowsky jazz so not 100% the same- but this PDF I made uses both aged and non-aged colours. **OPEN IN ACROBAT - NOT BROWSER!** Bass_config_SadowskyWL_v1.1.pdf EDIT: I made use of Manchester guitar tech as a starting point for colours, but the shell pink and aged sea foam I think I sampled from elsewhere...

that video is referenced and critiqued in the video that @bass_dinger posted above, both worth watching

....

how do I un see that?

If you want to know what CCM will sound like in 3-5 years time listen to whatever Coldplay are doing now

Quite - what kinda sound are you actually looking for? there’s two valid reasons I think for buying a bass- 1) Gas - you just want it, you don’t know why but you just do. Whether a colour combination, or a specific model you want have one to try out and cross something off the Bucket list. 2) a specific sound, useage or tone you want. I’ve no idea which way you are going with your short list - but my advice is get your bucket list out and follow the GAS!

pretty sure the seller is a basschatter...

I was once accused of both overplaying and having too much bass in the amp when I had the volume off!

Some of that I wonder is deliberate - Imagine whatever the next greatest worship song is, and then they get thundercat to play bass or equivalent... Thirty people in a school drama studio are going to struggle to play that - keep it to C, G, D and maybe a Em if you want and it makes it accessible

Product placement shot...

Despite having an awful website I saw this and should have thought of you - very much approve of your purchase. What do you have filling the P and MM of your holy trinity spots?

I've had a load of times where the BL introduces a new song in the practice before playing and has an idea in their head of arrangement... "stop playing please, I don't want bass on the first two verses" "I know, but I've never heard this song before, and going though the verse changes you want me to play more than once before playing it infront of 300 people would be nice!"

a sample of Bass Doc's tort... Edit: I don't even like tort much! To be honest I don't like the dark black like charcoal frost metallic - but what do I know ?

you got a different scratch plate for it yet Andy?

That doesn’t sound like a good thing!

what is the recommended depth btw? probably applies to me too.

I remember playing the PJ tanglewood-overwater and being impressed with it. Would be nice to try one again

Oh that sounds rough. luckily I was told that it could just be a 3cm channel under the paving slabs or if I cut off the edge of the paving slabs it could go down the side. How deep does it have to go? It sounds like one of those things that by the guy with a digger gets to you, you could dig it out by hand! Depending on dirt type. Ours is fairly easy to dig. Annoyingly I found that the originals cable had failed as it was two bits joined in a metal box full of water under ground! I think we could possibly reuse it but the sparky suggests running a new higher amp one.

it's not dissimilar to mine! We have an outhouse that was my workshop we are trying to convert to a home office, and then the garage was made watertight and now has my workbench in it. There was an old cable going from the outhouse to the garage... "if that cable is good" i asked the sparky "can I get power in the garage too?" Guess who spent a day rigging up lights and plug sockets in the garage before they tested the cable? 😬😡 Guess who spent the weekend pulling up the drive to dig a trench for a new cable?

@wateroftyne got there first

ooooff the new one looks great!

Well my guess would be linked to one showing a long scale bass and one showing a short scale... Not spending the £12 I would need to to prove that!

Bassdoc made tort here.
