    Ah that would be Pino Palladino!

    That's why I called you. Don't tell yourself short. Your posts on speaker design are both fascinating and helpful.

    Thanks! I had a problem with one of the toggle switches and tried a blend knob. I liked the blend knob so much, I added one to each. I personally really love the subtle changes I can make between the p’s and the j. I also put in some dimarzios on the blue. The regular pj kit.

    Best wishes for you and your family. Don't sweat it. BC is here for you. Let us know when you land and and you've got a few minutes to spare. Visit the DoI if you need some informal distraction of the nuttier kind. It got a lot of us through lockdown.

    Ive been thinking of getting the BT cord for my IE400's. Might put it on my Christmas list.

    I watched a recent video about it on bass and I wasn't that impressed with its sounds, but it is small and useable so for gigging it is probably ok

    I had an Atelier Z for a while, very nice basses.

    Would be great, but as a L6 user since before HD, in my experience we’ll get another update after the Stadium furore has died down. Possibly one after that then they will expect you to move on. The other side of that of course is that technology develops and hardware will have to change. It’s not like we are faxing set lists to each other anymore…

    These are my two Japanese 🇯🇵 Fender Mustangs. After trying many US, MX and Squier Mustangs over the years, I always keep coming back to the Japanese models due to their slimmer necks. The one of the left is a Fiesta Red with an upgraded Nordstrand pickup and rocking a set of Rotosound flats. I am still getting used to these flats, they have a lower tension than the LaBella's on my other Mustang. I do like the Nordstrand pup, seems to open the sound a bit more and has a lovely midrange to it. I can do more chordal work on this bass and it seems to love modulation and time-based effects due to the added clarity. The one on the right is my go-to bass for the past several years. Candy Apple Red with an upgraded @KiOgon loom, as the original one was crapping out on me during sessions, a set of LaBella Mustang strings, and a set of roadworn J-Bass controls (large for vol, and small for tone) which I think look way better ☺️ This one is all low-mids, big round notes, pretty decent sustain too. Loves drives and fuzzes due to having a little less top-end. As far as I understand, Japanese Mustangs have an early 60's neck profile and the rest (US, MX, Squier) have a late 60's/70's neck profile. If anyone knows better, please shed some light. But this is something I have come to experience with Mustangs and agreed upon with other Mustang players in the past.

    Thanks for mentioning these. Me and my wife (our singer) don’t like the KZ for different reasons - I find them too heavy and cumbersome and they simply won’t fit in my wife’s tiny ears. I just got some of the Bluetooth IE100s (which come with a BT module and a regular cord you can swap around) and they are light, comfortable and sound really clear and balanced. Not as much bass as some I’ve tried but I think with an entire mix in my ears they will be miles better. Plus they are really a lot smaller so my wife can use them and I can hardly feel them in my ears. The stuff cable at the start is really easy to mould round my ears too. I wanted to get some BT headphones for general music listening so these, although expensive, work really well for me but I could have just bought the wired versions and will do for my wife when I get paid again Very happy!!

    So it was you! LOL 😄, I was about to pull the trigger on this and it showed as SOLD. Massive Mustang fan here and short scale basses in general, this Atelier looks killer. You can't beat those competition stripes (go faster!). Enjoy! 🤘

    Super cool bro! What’s the toggle switch situation on those?? 👀👀

    Up for sale my Cort GB Modern 5-string, pretty much mint condition (a few playing marks here & there but you’d really have to look) and as factory except for the addition of Schaller straplocks. This really is a superb bass & sounds like it’s worth much more, I think, than the list (RRP) price of around £1,000. But there are some good bargains to be had around UK music shops, hence the very low asking price for this, although you'd hardly tell the difference between this & new. Spec-wise it's as I would have asked for if I got someone to make a bass for me - Nordstrand pickups, Babicz FCH bridge, 35" scale, roasted maple neck, active/passive pull/push knob, Hipshot ultralight tuners, etc. Because of these top-end features you can get just about any sound you want out of this, and the low B is very tight & useable. It looks beautiful, both naturally & on stage. Currently strung with D’Addario half wounds (they suit the current band I’m in) but it benefits from rounds to get the best sound out of it. I've only had this for a few months, bought new from Bass Direct, but I'm moving house shortly so need the money! Very light at 8.5 lb. Includes the rather nice Cort gig bag, quality piece of kit! Pick up from Bath, or I'm often up in Hertfordshire & am willing to deliver anywhere between the two, and as I like driving I'll deliver within 100 miles of Bath for free. I won't post unless I have absolutely no option, & I won't send overseas.

    Drink as a synonym for absorb. e.g. "I oiled the fretboard and it drank all the oil immediately." It's an inanimate object, it can't f'ing drink. Really gets on my wick for some reason. David Gemmell also had a phrase, which crops up in every book he ever wrote (cloned in some cases, but not as badly as David Eddings who wrote the Belgariad three times) where every time a character takes a break they have a "drink of the cool, clear, water" I hate it, and I can't tell you why.

    Just a quick update. I’ve decided to the keep the GP-5. Now that I’ve actually looked in the manual i can see i can use it like a small board. Each block has a midi on/off number. And the fact that the Chocolate can also power it makes for a very small back up.
  31. bass_dinger
    First hearing, apparently. Perhaps others on basschat will be better able to explain what this means?

    Your analysis is good @Misdee, but you forgot that those playing guitars or basses nowadays are, by 80%, old people like us (what's the average age here on BassChat, 50 to 55, I guess, or even 55 to 60) and have decided that older is better, so went back to the Fenders they couldn't afford when they were younger and skint...
