Telebass Posted November 18, 2013 Posted November 18, 2013 (edited) Just over an hour into a four-hour rehearsal, my no2 Precision starts to emit a speaker-flappingly loud earth hum. I do the next three hours with my teeth gritted playing the new Squier fretless Precision, which I've had about 3 hours noodle time on! Fortunately, no-one seemed to mind, and I was beginning to enjoy myself quite a lot come the end! Phew! Edited November 18, 2013 by Telebass Quote
steve-bbb Posted November 18, 2013 Posted November 18, 2013 Can't be a rick band?? Nobody plays fretless for rock right?' Quote
Telebass Posted November 18, 2013 Author Posted November 18, 2013 No, it's a blues/jump jive jazzy setup with gtr/bass/harmonica/keys/sax/drums. So to some extent, I had places to hide, as it were! Quote
rubis Posted November 18, 2013 Posted November 18, 2013 Glad it went well! Is that your PJ with the Wizard 64 bridge pickup.......how does that sound? I've got one waiting to be paired up with a Bare Knuckle pickup in a PJ format, thinking of doing it stacked knob style Cheers Harry Quote
Telebass Posted November 19, 2013 Author Posted November 19, 2013 Yes, that's the one. It sounded fine, although I basically used it with the P pickup only, as I wasn't looking for any other sound. Afterward, I did do some pickup tinkering to even out the levels a bit, as the Wizard was overwhelming the Squier P pickup a bit. I am also constantly amazed by the neck on this - slim front to back, approaching Jazz width at the nut, it is SO comfortable! Quote
Telebass Posted November 20, 2013 Author Posted November 20, 2013 Shall take an extra fretted bass today... Quote
