This! Let's you make a custom set of strings at whatever gauges and length you wish/need, genuinely great strings at that too might I add, and even at quite reasonable prices. https://newtonestrings.com/

I decided to tune my main, a just 28.6" scale Ibanez Mikro Bass to BEDG, B standard, tuning, and really like it. That would be an octave higher though than the B standard tuning this thread is about. I might eventually go for 2 half steps lower, A standard tuning, which is called tenor bass tuning, but as said I really like it, and think I am going to stay here. Mind of course this is useless for standard traditional bass work, and more of a solo/melodic kind of tuning. Stanley Clarke for one utilize A standard, tenor bass, tuning a lot. (Edit!: Eventually strung it with Elixir Nanoweb coated guitar strings of the gauges .068 - .052 - .038 - .028, and tuned it to A standard, tenor bass, tuning, that is like the top 4 strings of a 6 sting bass in regular B standard tuning. And love it!)

Yes, 3.2mm makes quite a difference in feel !! Just think about what a 3.2mm difference would mean in terms of string action for instance. Or, to give an example that is closer to a 1:1 case, the difference in feel between the 42mm nut width of a regular P Bass and then the standard 45mm nut width of a regular 5 string bass. Quite a lot I'd say.

No! But you do need this:

Yeah, well, specs doesn't happen to be a matter of opinion.

Sounds most of all like a very deep bass kalimba to me, even if it's a totally different instrument using a totally different principle. But very cool!

This is the way! You don't actually get a list of effects, for that the screen is way too small, but as far as I recall you do get to chose effect type/category (filter, modulation, distortion, reverb/delay e.t.c), then scroll through the effects one by one, with the foot switches, up and down, to respectively either the effect above or effect bellow the current one displayed, following the order of the effect list part of the manual (the one OP linked a picture of). The effect blocks mentioned above equals one for each of the 5 maximum number of effects it is possible to use for each patch, in the order they are linked in a given patch, left to right. Must admit I find the UI quite intuitive, but looks like I might be the only one here.

Well, some would call that a realization of actual reality. Though I'd imagine that some might find it frightening or disorienting experiencing it for the first time.

The who?

Remains this classic:

It does look amazing. Congratulations.

EMG Geezer Butler P pickup hands down! And not just for the price, an amazing pickup regardless of price. Not exactly a cheap budget pickup, but it's still one of the absolute cheapest bigger brand P pickups. 78£/91 Euro at Thomann. My absolutely favorite P pickup for a more vintage tone, for a more modern and aggressive tone the DiMarzio Model P, which cost slightly more, but still under 100£ I believe. But if you haven't got your bass properly shielded the Model P won't be completely noiseless, unlike the EMG Geezer, which is absolute dead quiet, even if you haven't got your bass properly shielded, as that one is shielded internally and got shielded wiring as well, with the ground running as a braided shield all along the insulated hot wire. Further more, thanks to EMG's solderless quick connecter system, the Geezer is extremely easy to install and doesn't require any soldering.

Not exactly that off or unexspected of a Yes cover, but just a quite original and really great one (I guess you could still call it kind of unexpected compared to the rest of the album this is on, since that is mostly sort of pop punk-ish indie/alternative rock), by the Danish band "A Kid Hereafter" : Love this version, and I actually think it is even better than the original.

I have recently string my just 28.6" scale Ibanez Mirko Bass with gauge .062 - .046 - .036 - .026 strings and tuned it to B standard tuning, that is B 2 half steps higher than the A string on a regular E standard tuning tuned 4 string bass, or like a baritone guitar. Now obviously the stock nut wasn't cut for this, usually you can get away with a big thinner strings, since the nut slots are always cut with U shape at the bottom, but too much thinner and you'll be likely to get a bit of rattling that actually affects tone some. Like for instance if you strung and tuned up your bass for piccolo bass (E standard tuning, but an octave above, like a guitar) or tenor bass (A standard tuning, like the 4 upper strings of a regular B standard tuning 6 string bass), or want to tune your 5 string bass to E standard tuning, that is E to C, instead of B standard tuning. The solution, if you don't want to cut a new nut, or just is trying out something new but don't plan to have your bass strung and tuned this way permanently, is to cut a piece of adhesive copper shielding tape to size, that is the width of the nut and a bit of tape to each side of the slot (remember to cut it a bit longer since some of that length will be absorbed as the tape is fitted down the nut slot), place it above the nut slot and press the string down in the the slot with the tape under, stroke with a flat piece of wood or plastic on each side of the slot to get the tape to stick, and done. This will make sure that the much thinner strings sits much better in the otherwise wider nut slots and thereby prevent rattling and make for a cleaner tone. Make sure that the copper tape doesn't reach over the side of the nut towards the bridge, as otherwise it might dampen the strings slightly and possible potentially even cause intonation issues.

What the hell are you on about? What is a phone, and what is this camera you speak of? Sounds like witchcraft to me.

As said, that's the specs listed for the amp, not the cab. Which though doesn't make any sense. Also the just preamp weighting 26lbs, exactly the same as the full head. Indeed! Some rather wacky specs on most of the stuff on that site.
