Fender Precision Steve Harris with hum
Asllan Pizzatto replied to Asllan Pizzatto's topic in Repairs and Technical
I was told the exact same thing on Reddit. Maybe the Seymour Duncan SPB1 is a really noisy pickup. Or maybe I just got unlucky with this one... I thought about maybe swapping it for an SPB4, but I like the sound of the SPB1 😢 -

Yes. I'm trying several forums because I can't find a definitive solution. -

Squier Classic Vibe 60s Mustang bass All specs listed here: https://uk.fender.com/products/classic-vibe-60s-mustang-bass A previous owner added a Fender decal. A cream pearl pickguard (from ebay's earlpilanz) has been installed; the original tort is included too. Strings are the Mustang-specific 43-104 La Bella Deep Talkin' flats, and I'll also include some roundwounds. If you don't want the La Bella flats, I'll knock off £20. Truss rod working, and the relief and intonation have been set. Weight: my kitchen scales say 3.86kg (8lb 8oz). £280 collected from Bristol, or £295 posted within UK.

Interesting point which I'd not really given any thought to: a low male can often get comfortable down to a b1 = 61 Hz. My ignorance, but why would it matter if that was being handled by the sub(s) rather than the tops?

Accugroove Tri 112L ***PRICE DROP - NOW £400***

As far as I know this is a original example. My knowledge is limited, so please feel free to correct me if necessary. (Astrays & thumb rest probably not) It weighs in at 11lb which is too much now in my advancing years but it sounds immense and is a pleasure to play with the 'A' neck if that floats your boat. Check out the photos,. I can ship in a hard case including UK postage.

Warwick + Trace Elliot... the (90s) dream combination!
paul_5 replied to SimonK's topic in Gear Gallery
Nice rig! My teenage wishlist was a TE rig (very similar to yours) but with a Corvette instead of a Streamer. These days it’s Ampeg and Fretless Jazz, but I’ve always wondered… -
And for size comparison: next to a Sire U5 short scale fretless. This is one dinky medium scale bass!

Richard Henry has posted what appears to be a very nice clean looking '72 Precision tonight. I've known Richard for more than 30 years, and in my opinion, he is one of the good guys. I'm going to let one of you guys enquire on the price.... https://www.instagram.com/richardhenryguitars?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igsh=NDd5bHgxbnZ3MzJu

I dep regularly for various bands on both bass and drums (not at the same time!). I usually get whatever the regular guy gets - occasionally if I’ve had to travel further I might get a contribution to petrol, but that’s about it. Most of mine are covers bands so getting the tunes down is reasonably straightforward. Most bands I play with want at least one run through because they all do the standard covers band tunes in a different way. For example, one used backing tracks but the versions were different to the originals, so had I just been going straight in, that would have been quite the shock. I don’t generally want lots of rehearsals though - that’s mainly why I like depping so much. I’m not a pro by any standard, but I’m reasonably capable and reliable, and that’s what’s got me regular dep gigs.

Deps are common place in the function world but you’re looking at players used to individual fees of £200-300 (or more). I don’t know any decent players who would look at a 30 song set for £80 as a one-off, I certainly wouldn’t. But for a friend where there is potential for repeat local work etc you might have a chance of attracting someone.

How was Your rehearsal last morning or night ?
Stub Mandrel replied to nilorius's topic in General Discussion
Well that was interesting! A quiet rehearsal! A drummer I haven't met before who put a towel over the snare. I got to refine my basslines for about eight originals. We jammed a few things, including me and the guitarist (Daz the daffodil) trying to play and sing Child in Time 😱 Aside from that, quite a chilled evening. I even had go with a pick.* *It seems no-one calls them plectrums any more. -
Tonight, despite being in a good room and my eq virtually flat, my jazz sounded lifeless. It was only 2/3 of the way through the rehearsal I realised that I had tried the tones off, neck pickup backed off a bit reggae sound before we started. I'd reset my volumes but not the tones... Anyway... it's originals and for one song I needed inspiration and a more aggressive sound. I found both with a pick. The changed sound inspired me to a much better bassline.
