Hand in your badge right now, Mister... You won't get far round here with that kind of crazy talk...

[quote name='Bass_Guardian' timestamp='1431533454' post='2772329'] Any good? [/quote] Yes - I had the active version in four and five string - I got the fiver for £195 from my local crack conveyors Think the active is worth the extra myself

[quote name='Bass_Guardian' timestamp='1431506179' post='2771928'] Not sure if it's Active or Passive, I'll try find out! [/quote] Passive

Buy it without hesitation, especially if it's the active one

[quote name='Cameronj279' timestamp='1431128016' post='2768166'] I play a Warwick in a Funk-Rock band...does this make me hipster or chav? This system isn't the clearest [/quote] No - anti-chav. If you are in the same space as a chav there will be an explosion

Ditto Very talented guy and very underrated

[quote name='discreet' timestamp='1368305106' post='2075598'] Congratulations! I have a Bass Doc P-Bass and very nice it is, too. Does this make me a chav? If so, why? [size=4] [/size] [/quote] Read first few posts ...

I get very little practice, often none for months, so I run through things in my head, read up, and write new bass lines in my head to music that I hear all around. I've beaten several mental blocks like this

"Their own" special place

[quote name='yepmop' timestamp='1430592568' post='2762989'] Sounds like a great idea for a separate section for 6 stringers. [/quote] Yep then I can avoid it like a weedy, too-many-strings kind of plague

[quote name='40hz' timestamp='1429535637' post='2752339'] Where can you buy a Tokai these days? I always hankered after a hard puncher. [/quote] All over the bay Item 271843505560 or 291381310187 as examples Think they are Chinese made now

[quote name='barkin' timestamp='1429526190' post='2752190'] Don't know about basses, but I've owned a couple of '80's Tokai guitars - Strat & Les Paul copies - and both were very, very good. [/quote] Me too

I've used this very stuff from this very seller countless times with perfect results Made my jap 62 jazz utterly silent

You can get it easily on eBay - look for "conductive adhesive copper" Item 360195343162 is an example You could alternatively put a blob of solder on the edge of each piece of tape and check continuity

eight handed bass solo and three lovely ladies who can also sing Awesome

Brilliant in its entirety

[quote name='dannybuoy' timestamp='1429293061' post='2750208'] I cracked the finish on my US Std when drilling for the bridge cover. I later discovered the trick of using some masking tape on the area and drilling into that. Not tried it myself but it should help if you do another! [/quote] That can work but a really sharp drill bit is more important

This is mine https://onedrive.live.com/redir?resid=F1B48FF289BAE6D2!557&authkey=!AI7gaYTXDBcOhac&v=3&ithint=photo%2cJPG Built by the bass doc to resemble a 70s p. I love it although the neck is a bit of a handful , pup is from a mex classic 50s Has that ponderous clanky dort of tone

I did get this happen once (mind you I've only played live twice) and it was from a guitard who told me I "sounded immense" (playing a stingray clone on flatbed through a small ampeg combo). Everyone was clapping along so it can't have been too far out. Told said guitard that I'd made loads of errors but he hadn't noticed apparently

Pretty much gas free I do hanker for a fiver once in a while but usually stop myself realising that I don't devote enough time/get enough time to practice anyway . I have a precision, acoustic and a stingray clone and it's enough One day I will try fretless, eub, fiver etc Mind you a really big stack would massively annoy my teenage son...
