Junkyard Rocket Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 yep. With my previous band I had a dean pace first & then upgraded to an NS CR5M. We had a rock/americana sound & the electric upright fitted in well. The pace was a lot easier to play than the NS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RAY AGAINST THE MACHINE Posted September 18, 2013 Author Share Posted September 18, 2013 That sounds a blast Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Junkyard Rocket Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 (edited) It was. I kind of wish I'd hung on to the dean as the NS is too nice for pub gigs Edited September 18, 2013 by Junkyard Rocket Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yorks5stringer Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 Yes, used my Stagg EUB and 5 string in last band, Jazzier stuff on the Stagg and rockier with the 5 String Bass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dudewheresmybass Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 I do it reasonably regularly. The pace is actually a 35" scale (iirc) and therefore more like playing a fretless vertically if you understand what I'm saying. So in theory the transition should be fairly straightforward Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigRedX Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 I see quite a few rockabilly/psychobilly bands sporting Dean and Stagg EUBs. Certainly easier to transport and amplify than the traditional upright bass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Vader Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 I am too lazy to use two basses, so i play some fairly rocky stuff on a harley-benton EUB. Works fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
