When does it land?

Let us know what Jon says when you ask him

Obvs you like dem apples, I always knew you swallowed

Yep 1 swallow makes a summer.....

I have wooden fingers and a wooden pick

No right or wrong answer, keep swapping till you get what you want, whackier the better

@HazBeen is along the right tracks as wood makes a great deal of difference, even more so that’s the body wood the neck wood has a massive influence on tone. @Al Krow there is actually nothing wrong with pine, many fine basses have been made using it, or indeed using basswood, which some peopl turn their nose up at. If the choice of wood has so little influence, why are you then tying to steer people away from pine? Surely it makes 10% or less difference to the sound so the rest of the components can shine through... If wood isn’t important, why then even amongst the same type of wood style basses do some people describe the bass as being ‘dead’ in sound even with all other things like pick ups being the same? The argument for blind test will of course be trotted out as justification for ignorance on the subject, but as reported here at Bass Bashes when other blind tests were done a whole heap of things on a blind test were not differentiated. At Haz has said it’s too long to get into the whole Wood gambit....

Bloody love that song as well - my first gig un-chaperoned was the pornografitti tour - gigs have gotten better since then......

That goes to prove Bass gets ladies on the dance floor we rule

Do it

So much can be done with the right pick up, right capacitor and a tone knob to manipulate a sound and not further tweaks originals or covers

GHS confirmed

Toto was my fave in wizard of Oz and yes, Gold is right up there

Sacrilege- ToTo are practically untouchable as brilliant as this is!

I’d agree with a slightly heavier bass being a good place to start. Having played the prototype I wonder if the player it was designed alongside had a jazz preference hence using that model first, but also with the punchiness that the cedar body gives and attack of the Norwegian maple to the note, I think it suits a jazz configuration very well.

Yes yes yes A proper song and a proper bass sound - get in there my son! Band sounds good, great singer as the man wothbthe most discerning taste on BC it’s a big 👍🏾 From me

Passive P’s absolutely do not get lost in the mix

Nah meandering threads make threads don’t they....?! i did a poll and people quite liked the dead time when I wasn’t playing and noticed if I changed a bass very discerning crowd

Rumour on the streets is made by GHS

Yep and official and a players group The official is run by Gregor Frisbwho does Basstheworld.com

They have their own brand, but i forgot to get to the bottom of it. People say they are like super steels. Pop a question on the FB page - you may get an answer, or I may...

@dmccombe7 it’s the options available. The DK has the old Sandberg in-house pick ups which are very nice indeed, but newer versions I think have the Sandberg black label pick ups which are immense. If you notice the bridge pick up is slightly closer for that 70s ‘bite’ Jon Snow has Haüssel pick ups - a small operation in Germany doing fantastic pick ups, and they are very very beefy, so much so the neck solo’d Is about as close to a P as a jazz pick up will get IMO. This I have strung with flats to get that vibe and hence different from the DK. Absolute joy

It may not be another €450 for the pick ups and 3 band EQ, black labels are becoming more standard. Save your configuration number, email them the number and say you want a 3 band Glock EQ instead of the standard 2, you can have it with a stack knob so no more holes need to be drilled than is shown, and your pick up preference for black labels, and it may be less of an upcharge. If you are serious, then you have your answer

Had a 5 string VT works well

Just go on the configurator on the website Then you can pick a finish and extras of what you want and rhencost will become apparent
