Just got in from a rehearsal with my classic rock band, using my new Sandberg California TT SL. Went well though as it’s a jazz bass configuration I struggled a bit with the sound as am so used to a Precision type sound. However at the end the band said how good they thought the sound had been, with better separation on the instruments as my bass was lower/deeper. Was a dream to play though, and being 6lbs it was so easy on my back, don’t even feel like I’ve been at a band practice, was def a good purchase.

Thank you, much appreciated!

I had the same issue when I first started on bass. The Fender model felt huge and unwieldy, but the Washburn was much more nimble. The neck was wider, and I liked the 3+2 tuners on the headstock (3 above, two below). I chose the bass that I most enjoyed playing, and which felt right in my hands.

Very tempting

I did zombie again, a professional bass player told me it was alright. I was all set to do Dreams but heard it being done as I walked in the door. Curses

nice. Now you are free to from paralysis lol. Enjoy bud!!

Oh! Ouch. I had a case which damaged my bass. When my homemade carrying strap broke, my case did not protect my bass as it hit the stone steps. That was my own stupid fault. What happened to you and G4M reversing hard out of the situation is deeply uncool.

That's how I ended up with seven basses (so far). Let's not discuss amps, cabs, or pedals

Happy Anniversary, Mike! The channel is a testament to your determination and tenacity. Long may it continue!

How are the Alembics going? I'd recognise that one anywhere! The Wal is still getting loads of use! (Sorry most Bass Chatters...this is a Leftie conversation)

I canceled the order for the IR loader, as I realised i dont really need it. Loving the EBS Microbass 3 just as it is. I cant see me ever going back to Sansamp now. It's not perfect, but it's as close as I can get with one box.

How's the rig been treating you @dave_bass5?
