Mad Wyzzard Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 First bass - Marathon Replay Series (PJ) particle board, good for anything but not for learning bass Go To Bass - ? My Bass - Yamaha RBX800A, Whoooo what a difference to my first one By the way, has anyone got a manual for RBX800A, please send a pn? Found a Volume-Poti and how to achieve a more classic sound or a more modern sound useing the other pots, but I would really like to know the meaning of the other knobs. I`m quite sure that they are for tone-control or fading the pu`s (sorry I`m quite new on e-bass). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JMM Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 I don't know if it's worth posting this as they've all been the same but.. First bass: Ibanez SR505 Go to bass: Ibanez SR505 Your Bass: Ibanez SR505 Have been extremely pleased with the sound and have used it exclusively for 7 years now. I don't see the need to get anything else. Almost bankrupt me when I bought it though (I even kept it in a sleeping bag for a few months until I could afford a case and amp!).

StoutFellow Posted October 27, 2011 Share Posted October 27, 2011 [b]First Bass Owned: [/b][b]Westone [/b]thingy with a P-style pickup. Did the trick.... [b]'Go To' Bass: [/b][b]Fender MIA Jazz[/b] bass, rosewood fingerboard. Half-wound D'Addario's. The Swiss Army Knife of bass guitars. It's the Series/Parallel switch that makes this so versatile. [b]'Your' Bass: [/b][b]Fender Jazz MIJ Aerodyne[/b], tuxedo black P/J - I think I'm a Precision player with Jazz pretensions.... Truly, the Aerodyne is the best LOOKING bass guitar on the planet.

Go to: Iceni Custom - awesome J type neck (my preference), active or passive, can cover most musical ground. My bass: Shuker custom - my design and spec. 'Nuff said!
