When I was listening to clips of the VI (because of GAK's ad for one at £600) I was thinking that it didn't have any of the BB style upfront tone that usually catches my ear, but was more subtle, and very classy. How that would sound with a J pickup added and 4 inches lost.... 🤷♂️ This was the best demo of one I think on a image search there might be a catalogue page or two online of the VI and VIs and VII etc. But I think it was in Japanese.

I think I recall when looking up the VI a couple of weeks ago seeing that there was a VIs as well, tho I cant remember if it was 32" or 30"
-
If that's a VIIs, will it be a short scale?

What is the heaviest you comfortably listen to?

What is the collective term for a bunch of bass players?

Basso Profondo is the Italian term for a solo bass singer who has not only solid low notes, but also a heavy, dark tone throughout their range. Of my two Yamahas, I would only dare let one of them have that title. In Russian choral music, the basso profundos have extraordinarily deep voices, lower than a cello. I think I can hear 5 stringers clearing their throats at the thought of a 4 string with standard tuning being permitted that title -

The Bass Gallery would like £995 for this please. A lot less than what a mid 60s P would cost, I guess, but still an awful lot more than sod all 😊

This made me wonder, has anyone attempted the Tornado of Souls solo on bass? Of course they have: -
That seems to have gone already

The instruments you receive are as random as the cards you're dealt? 😕 -

At my funeral, Commando by The Ramones is to be played just before the coffin is carried out, all 95 seconds of it. I wonder if the mourners will like it any better than ye goodly folk of this thredde? -

Another Brick In The Wall is quite catchy, but apart from that, I'm with Johnny Rotten -
When I was 15, playing with a band to an audience for the first time, just before I stepped on stage the bottom E string of my guitar literally unravelled. Since I was on the higher guitar parts, playing the set with only 5 strings wasn't the end of the world, but my half of memories of that performance are of jumping back and forth, playing whatever needed transposing up an octave. Yeugh.

I was really confused when I realised what guitar was used in this performance -
Calling themselves Bonnie Prince Charlie would be an unfunny joke that no one would get, but it's the best I can do 😬

If one bassist satiates, is a group of bassists a redundancy? -

My understanding of Grunge covers Superfuzz Bigmuff and not much else 😁 Musically, ramshackle but still compelling, it should sound like you're glad you can't smell it. -
Should anyone care, and I'm very dubious that anyone does, as far as I can tell from checking more photos, the pickups on the 434 are in the same spots as on the 424 / 2024, so the split is again slightly neckward compared with a P.

Am I the only one who has never played a P Bass.?
Munurmunuh replied to bubinga5's topic in Bass Guitars
I only knew to check that, because I once said exactly the same thing in a similar situation and had the same thing pointed out to me Just looking at that bass ^^^^ I didn't truly believe it was actually in the same spot until I saw the guide lines in place. -

I'm never going to come to terms with the fact that Yamaha dropped orange for the 424. The absence of a Precision-y noise from the neck pickup doesn't bother me, as I bought it for the sound of both pickups together. Perhaps that slight extra bassyness from placing the split a tiny bit closer to the neck was felt to give a better balance when the two are mixed together? At any rate, it does it for me.
-
I was wondering why the split pickup on my 424 never makes a noise that reminds me of Precision, it seems more straightforwardly bassy. Turns out it's about a quarter of an inch near the neck. I'm going to take that as the explanation. 🤷♂️

I think the fretboard going to 24 frets is giving the wrong impression as to where the neck pickup is
