@Al Krow - cheers Tweeters and the like and those higher frequencies for me are in the category - ok it’s there i don’t think I would ever use them, but absolutely get yourself in the ball park

Agreed - cross purpose arguing and so much more comes into and not just come size, but completely agree with what Bill says about pairing. Of course in this day, especially for smaller venues the kick drum volume battle can be averted with electronic kits

Supertwin user here. It absolutely slays - as @Wolverinebass says, his cab is great too - very nice sounding. ST suits me VK suits him. At this level you are looking at an answer where one is right and the other is righter - just

Synth is a broad topic, y’all are talking about octaves and fuzzes to achieve a synth type tone - certainly with the plasma you can get something very useable in the ball park and synth type tones

Agreed - but even on open battlefield, you are not looking for the left hook as much, and if a lefty slips a righty slash/hook then they are completely opened up to be gutted

I like this thread! Full on righty here, but never thought about the sliding scale until mentioned here, as in aspects of my job, the angle of attack is just better with the left, so I switch and just use it - not what I would call ambidextrous in anyway, but I must be on a scale. Interetsingly there is a pHD (I think) student and amateur boxer who has just championed a theory, not without merit, that left handedness in battle was beneficial and they were better fighters so that in evolutionary terms they had to prevail. He goes on to say that matching boxers across history etc. The southpaw more often than not comes out as a winner compared a righty. Best tennis players often lefty. Moving onto Gingers - technically a genetic mutation, has persisted not just because they are kissed by fire, but also despite burning in the sun, they use produce and use vitamin D more efficiently, hence it is beneficial.

Can it be any coincidence @Al Krow picked not only the sampled version of the actual bass line, but a live performance using a backing track with no band to film and is focusing on just the singer....?

@Dazed agreed - cost difference I eluded to was about man hours to produce. its like car colours - got a new car recently, went with stock red - didn’t care enough for an extra £500 for a different colour. I think he got the Ding

Again this relic vs non relic debate. With a masterpiece you also get thermal and vibration treatment to the wood to help with the settling in process. This as well as expertise in ageing the body, neck etc costs. Other companies like Yamaha do similar treatments. Having played all the range from non TI masterpiece ageing - I think there is difference - only you can decide if it’s important enough

Agree totally with subliminal listening - as long as they are pretty true to the original it’s anazong what you take in. I go through cycles when listening of a general overall listen, listen specifically to singing/other instruments for ‘triggers’ and listening to just the bass and really focus on it, even so much as doing the fingering/plucking/picking while driving or walking or whatever you are doing. Its amazing what you hear listening to the same song multiple times and concentrating on certain aspects

Dude - remember this. You are the big smoke You will be killer Nuff said 👊🏾

This guy is a legend and he packs his stuff so that even a bomb won’t hurt it. Great chap to deal with

Here is hoping so
