Natural as I love the look of wood.

My Fake Flea Jazz Bass has a set of these excellent pickups (to me the best "standard" pickups ever, period) and like GR Bass, it's something I recommend all the time ... with some huge success with GR Bass...

ABBA are back!!!!!. New album and ‘gig’
Hellzero replied to dave_bass5's topic in General Discussion
Lemmy was a fan... Enough said, no ? If it's not enough, listen to this : They are a great band and they have a great sense of the melody and composition. Like most of us, I discovered these facts only when I grew up. It was so easy to hate them back in the day. That said, I have none of their albums, but I don't turn the sound off when I hear them. Muriel's Wedding was also a fantastic film for (non) Abba fans, and with an amazing Toni Collette ! -
Why is my typing getting re formatted to something i don’t want?
Hellzero replied to dave_bass5's question in Site Issues and Questions
Some people seem to have a lot of time to spend at really useless details or huge OCD problems. Just to say. 😉 -
You don't speak of the preamp(s) gain. This is the first thing to do in your chain. A perfectly set gain is the key to a perfect sound, but don't use the gain light as it's pure bullsh*t, use your ears and set it accordingly. That said the more pedals, whatever they are, you add to your signal, the more problems you put in the equation... And the more deteriorated your sound gets.

I still have my Blue 360 and won't sell it as I get THAT Acoustic sound instantly.

Yep, you're right it's a Gotoh 206.

Nicked - MusicMan Stingray Stealth - Limehouse Lizzy
Hellzero replied to Jonesy's topic in Bass Guitars
This part is totally unexplainable and unexpected !?! I had a bass stolen 3 decades ago that has never been found back, so I know the feeling. I've been refunded by the insurance for its full new value, but as it was a special order from a luthier I still still feel I've lost more... But WTF, storing a van for a week without even checking if everything that should be in was really inside is beyond my imagination... I'll keep both eyes opened in case I see such a rare MusicMan, for sure. -
So, what's a Supporting Member and do I have to pay alimony?
Hellzero replied to Old Horse Murphy's topic in Site News
And the icing on the cake is that (for now) when you're a supporting member, ads disappear ! That's another reason to become a supporting member. It's great to be a member ! Be there or be square ! That's heavy ! Ok @ped you should now my bank account number by heart now. -
It's not a Gotoh Pro bridge (aka 206) as it really looks like a Kahler roller bridge type with the whole saddle/string anchoring moving like on a headless system. I've seen this bridge before for sure, but where...
-
EMG pickups and preamp, Gotoh GB7 first generation (small shaft) tuners and Gotoh Pro bridge. Definitely 90's. Certainly made by, a now disappeared, luthier.
-
The two coils are totally identical otherwise the hum cancelling wouldn't be very effective. 😉 So there's no E-A or D-G part.
-
It's a series wiring, so the black junction wire is for the connection in series of both coils. The remaining black wire is the cold point (that you solder to the ground) and the white wire is the hot point (output). If you have another pickup in the bass and that the sound is out of phase, simply reverse the cold and hot points.

This one, certainly... -
Check the OC-5 thread, no need for anything else. Plenty of sound files and comparisons with a lot of the contenders and the original Japanese (and Taiwanese too) OC-2, of course.

MARKBASS 121 Combo Lite Alain Caron SOLD
Hellzero replied to fleabag's topic in Amps and Cabs For Sale
I had the Combo 121 Lite Mk I, the Combo 121 Lite Mk II and the Super Combo K1 : all three fantastic combos with a preference for the K1 that was not as hissing as the two others when cranked up (and it can become very loud), but is heavier. I sold the 3 of them and now my back is telling me to go back to a lightweight combo... which is what the 121 Lite Mk II is. GLWYS.
