Hi everyone!😊 I am thinking of ordering myself a custom molded In ear monitors ( i am a bassplayer) and the thing i was warned about (from a fellow musician) was, that i can expect a non enjoyable bass sound in my in ear which could lead me to abandon using In ears in general. The guy told me, it would be almost a "must", to EQ my bass sound that is coming ONLY to In ear monitors. I did a research on In ear "signal chain", and so on, but i can not find any info or help on this, or that anyone is doing that. So - how do you wire your bass signal for a good In ear monitoring? (If you are using a wireless transmitter, of course)? Do you guys use your dry signal in your in ear? I would really appreciate help - Thanks😉

Tonci is on of the most active sellers/buyers on the most of the leading bass forums in Europe. Needless to say - the communication, attitude, payment and so on was, as expected, top notch. A very kind guy, absolutely recommended. As a seller or a buyer! Thank you Tonci!

FIRST! Willem offered me a trade - his 2 high end basses against my Fodera. We wrote countless mails before. The communication was super fast, open, kind and very trustworthy. As it came to a deal he sent me 2 of his basses in advance. He knows a lot about basses. A true gentelman and bass lover. Would trade, buy (or sell haha) at any time. 300% recommended. And also on the top of that - a GREAT guy! Cheers, Janez

I sold my Jazz Bass 1977 to Geert and all i can say is it was a pleasure to deal with him. Very friendly and uncomplicated buyer! Highly recommended Janez

I sold my Ken Smith Burner to Miki. He is super friendly, positive and uncomplicated guy to deal with. Communication and transaction was flawless. That's how a deal should be done! Highly recomended! Thanks Miki! All the best, Janez

Hi everyone! I have a little problem Since my childhood i am used to play the 40 - 60 - 75 - 95 - 125 Superlight strings. It's just that i feel the most comfortable playing them. I tried to switch to 45 gauge quite some times but i just could never get used to the the feel as with the 40 super light ones. All is good with finding the super light strings for 4 and 5 string basses, but i noticed that finding a 6 string bass set is a bit trickier. The normal/common 6 string bass strings set is 45 - 130 with a 32 as a C string. Anyone has an idea if the super light gauge exist? ( I saw Fodera sells some but would i really have to order d**n strings overseas??) And IF no - would it be wrong combining a 40 - 125 set with a 32 string? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Hi everyone! This is my Feedback topic. Please be kind and honest! Cheers, Janez

Hi everyone! I owned lots of basses and most of them have had a dead spot - from the cheap to the expensive butique Basses. I know - i went through lots of opinions - from internet to luthiers in reality. Most of the answers were something like : "the wood is an organic material and it's normal..." What i've discovered is that almost everyone bass i've ever owned had a "dead spot" on the 7th fret G string. IF this is a dead spot anyway... It just rings out faster, leading to harmonic (you can feel the neck vibrating more as compared on the other notes). Somewhere i read that a dead spot SHOULD HAVE less attack compared to other notes, and THE WOLF is the exact opposite. However - this faster outringing note theoretically doesn't match any of those two. There were some Basses that i owned, without a dead spots. But they were 3 out of cca 20. And no, they weren't Fodera-s or similar! A normal Fender Jazz Bass Standard, Fender Stu Hamm Urge 2 and a Sadowsky RV5 Metro. I played a 5 string 24 fret Monarch who had, again, a "dead" spot on 7th fret, G string - pretty strong one. I noticed (it may be my assumption) that 24 fret Basses have a bigger "chance" of having a dead spot as the others... Still observing tho (Ok, Stu Hamm urge 2 had 24 frets, but it was really a lucky one) It is SO COMMON found thing on all the basses - also on the most expensive ones (custom foderas, ken smiths...) that i really don't know anymore...Do i care too much? Sometimes i think i will go nuts because of that... And after all that written - ARE this dead spots at all, or are those notes really LACKING of attack? Before going nuts - i try to calm me down with a thinking of all the bass stars on the planet... I assume that also they don't have the "perfect" outringing instruments in the universe, or...????? Can somebody discuss/give his opinion on this topic? Thank you and Cheers
