    Is there meant to be a discernible difference between stringing through body or bridge? Never noticed it on any of my American Fenders I've owned.

    I've only recently gotten into double-thumbing and have some way to go before it's at a decent level but so far on my 24 fret basses I haven't noticed any low-end loss compared to using my 21 fret one. Same with "regular" slap.
  3. Terry M.
    I'm wondering how many 20 fret players regularly use them all.
  4. Terry M.
    I don't know if this is scientifically correct but I definitely understand where you're coming from. I've never considered this to be honest.

    I'm intrigued when you say more bottom end for double-thumb. How do more frets equate to less low end?

    Threads going off-topic is a way of life on Basschat. When it gets too much for me personally I unfollow the thread. I'm not suggesting you do this but in the grand scheme of things we're not on here discussing anything that deep so it doesn't really matter. I didn't appreciate the call-out is what I'm saying I guess.

    There are a ton of comments on here that while not irrational prejudices in and of themselves are legitimate and direct responses to irrational prejudices. All part of the fun in my books ☺️

    The only person who can decide that is you. No one will experience a bass the same way you will so go and try one if you can? If not then order one from a retailer with a decent return policy.

    I agree with all of this. I like the guys in Wunjos too.

    No I've really been bringing in my own strap. My wide Levys one. I've demoed too many basses in the past without them and I always play with one when sitting.

    Ironically I've recently started bringing my own straps to demo basses in stores.

    You don't work down Denmark Street do you? 😅
  13. Terry M.
    Oh that's so sad to hear.

    If the Markbass heads featured both aux in and headphone out sockets I'd be all over this.
  15. Terry M.
    Other customers wanting to talk to me when I'm in a guitar store trying out basses I'm not going to buy 🙃

    I don't have any personal experience with this but I've heard on more than one occasion that regardless of what bass EMGs are in they will all sound the same. Is that meant to be the case?
  17. Terry M.
    Ironically I just scored with a used example of this brand from Bass Direct and even another customer in there at the time thought it was a new bass.

    Does 5 minutes of bass playing for you feel like an hour or does an hour feel like 5 minutes? If it's the former you may need to step away for a bit to regroup.
  19. Terry M.
    This is so key to the entire experience. What could be making you feel this way? Boredom perhaps? Did you get rid of your 4 string Ray in the end as a side question and if so are you missing it?
  20. Terry M.
    Out of all curiosity what would you have done if there was no Basschat?
  21. Terry M.
    Are you tempted to try a wider spaced model?
  22. Terry M.
    Paulownia.
  23. Terry M.
    With you on Fenders though. It can happen but there's too much inconsistency.
  24. Terry M.
    I hope this model sells well. I met Yolanda in The Bass Gallery once and she just has the nicest way about her. Oh and of course she's no slouch on the instrument either.
  25. Terry M.
    Totally unacceptable like others have stated. The irony is how much individuals will pay for a relic-finished bass. Now THAT totally escapes my understanding but I'm digressing now. Hope you get this sorted.
