bigjimmyc Posted January 29, 2021 Author Share Posted January 29, 2021 Cheers Rasher. It plays really well, although I’m not a fan of the active EQ. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is it you're not fond of, the EQ in this particular bass or active electronics in general? I've only ever owned one bass that wasn't passive so haven't much experience with them Edited February 1, 2021 by rasher80 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigjimmyc Posted February 3, 2021 Author Share Posted February 3, 2021 I think I'm just old-fashioned. I prefer a passive sound. On-stage I'd only ever use the volume control anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alaskaleftybass Posted April 5, 2021 Share Posted April 5, 2021 Congrats on your new bass. I have that same model. It used to be my number one for gigging but was bumped by my Ibanez SR1200L VNF with Nordstrand pickups. Just today I sent for a pair of Nordy's for my second in line-- an SR500 with two Bartolini pickups. I've really developed a taste for the Nordy's. They have a nice mid growl, thumpy bottom, and a crispness I love. I'm probably going to sell my SR300EL in May so I can buy an SR300EL Weathered Black version. Same bass, just a 3 dimensional wooden semi-flat black finish. I've been craving one since they came out a couple years ago. However, if they weren't available I'd gladly keep my SR300EL. Great bass!

bigjimmyc Posted May 8, 2021 Author Share Posted May 8, 2021 Decided I’m going to let this go. It’s very nice but I prefer a meatier neck. This is very slim. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
