New d’addario’s too 😂 there’s a lot more bottom end on the recording, the phone picked up a lot more of the “clack” in the room.

today tracking new songs

Hard to hear really but this is a phone recording while tracking to a click... 2178D7CD-F1C9-4FF5-BA8D-A779A0B52EC4.MP4

414 was used for the scratch bass in the guiding - but since I changed the bridge from schaller to Wilkinson I haven’t had chance to do a proper setup and it was a bit buzzy on a higher run. Rather than whip out the tool kit I just deferred to the 614.

Totally unmodified...well, apart from the pickguard. I had it set flat (as in basically a 414). Then pushed the bass a tiny way over centre for a more chilled track, and then on the funkier/faster track with slap pushed the treble a tiny bit. sounds great on a rough mix etc.

614 wins today...

@warwickhunt yeah. I do...let me count my pennies. will have to flog some bits on, don’t think I got anything like what you’re after for mine which explains why I bought a car on finance 😂

Like that a lot!

I had it when I wasn’t in a band, and on its own I didn’t enjoy it as much as my jazz - I also had to buy a car at the time so it went to that fund.

Had this 2 years ago - wonder if this found its way into the basschat community? Think I want to give it another go...

I played my 2 this evening for an hour. Going to the studio tomorrow, both of them are coming...

Has done for years. It’s fit.

Well, booked in the studio tomorrow from 10am, it ain’t coming with me... played the BB 614 for an hour before and I think that and the jazz will do it.

Nowt’s changed, I usually just go for a Wazz in a busy pub toilet if I want blokes I don’t know to laugh at my smaller equipment...

In fact. lake placid blue, maple board and non matching headstock for me...

That’s bloody lovely - like Yamaha BB had a baby with a Ricky! I would enjoy that! And white pearl...just saying.

Flub flub flub. Wooh!

1993 lesser spotted Stu Hamm Urge 😉

I’m good at guessing

I’m not great with hofner. I’ll say 1958-60 and about £800-£1000 probably hugely out. they go between £300 and £600 when a bit roughed up.
