Pinball

Hi, a little feedback on a couple of tracks please. Especially "Bass hands". At the time of recording I thought the electronic drums were the biz. It's to give a trance/dance edge-unlike Caught in Glass, which was a more traditional swing thing. I am now wondering if I should have gone for a more traditional drum sound on BH. All feedback welcome. These are the first tracks that feature my Carvin BTW. http://soundcloud.com/mole-music-1

Well, I never say I will keep anything long term but at the moment I can't see any reason why I would part with this. It sounds as good as it looks. [attachment=118758:Car Bd.jpg][attachment=118759:Carvin.jpg]

I think it makes more of a difference on lead guitars. I love my through body Schecters as the strings sing for ever (sustain). Set neck/thru body stinging and materials all make a small difference that adds up. I can't tell any difference with bass. Why would I want ot sustain for ever in any case?

I love it as a usable bit of art. I appreciate the attention to detail. 10/10 A bit impractical and difficult to use though, I would prefer a less extreme relic maybe.

No no no!

Hi, I fancy doing some experimenting so are there any sites out there that compare different makes and models of pickup and pre-amp.

[quote name='Grand Wazoo' timestamp='1346878571' post='1794510'] Now I was about to pull the trigger on one of them but I decided at the time to stay traditional and get the Fender American Standard Precision instead, purely because I don't really need the musicman vibe sound and it was a lot more expensive to justify the purchase, the Fender Am / St was £950 while the Sandberg was £1450 [/quote] Interesting as I played a couple of California's a few weeks back and was well impressed. I can't recall the models but one had active humbuckers and the other passive Jazz. Both impressed and were mighty fine. Then last week I played new MIA Fender P and J basses and found them mighty fine as well. In terms of sound they were different. I liked them all but felt the fender J was maybe more of an all rounder, while the Sandburg seemed more specialised. It depends what style of music you play really.
