I got a samson aswell, they are alright for the money, but I always feel like my tone isn't as good when I use it!! And the other day the antenna broke off (Not a clue were to get a new one so may just improv one) but it still works, goes to show the build quality though!! lol My friend has one of the ashdown ones and they sound great, not sure what the price tag is on it though!! Im just gonna stick to my leads I think! lol

That is really simular, probably was from one of them! lol mine doesn't look like its ever had anything actually put on it though, maybe straight from the factory? ill have a look Cheers

Okay so I have this crazy body which has been laying around for a while and a load of electronics too. BUT I'm missing a neck and I cant really put any old neck in a pocket like this!! I really fancy a fretless bass so I'm thinking maybe I should try to make one...... On the other hand I dont wanna go around ruining pieces of wood and would rather like something I could play so do you guys know of any type of bass I could cannibalise to get one or anyone who could make one which wont burn too large a hole in my pocket (Im a poor student after all). Either way any ideas would be greatly appreciated!! Oh and if you have any idea were this body may have come from or who made it, that could be useful too!!

haha its okay silddx, I sort of realised after reading it through again in a different tone!! lol This links were awsome though!! The second one will be a big help!! Thanks!! I wont go away dont worry!! Theres way too much interesting stuff on here for that and you guys are a BIG help too!! thanks!! Ill be sure to check out that thread soon!! THANKS TO YOU ALL!! Little bit less stressed now!! lol

Adrenochrome above ^ knows what he's talking about more than I do, 500Hz sounds about right.[/quote] haha yeah I just had a beautiful 2 weeks of exams of various manors!! bad times!! Yeah I saw that once I posted!! thanks Adrenochrome!! Was very helpful!!

[quote name='HMX' post='830584' date='May 7 2010, 12:41 PM']Relax, I'm sure silddx wasn't having a go. I've had a quick browse around google and can't find the figures nor know enough about them to guess. But by 'classic p-bass thump', we mean a real spike in the low-mid frequencies - as for the top end, it's not as clear as a jazz bass. That may be complete nonsense.[/quote] Haha Im propper stressing over assinements atm, easily annoyed and all!! Hopefully will be out of the way soon thankfully!! Yeah I spent a while on google and couldnt find anythign!! Im pretty f***ing clueless when it comes to all the technical frequency stuff!! lol Ill just go for a spike in the low-mids, Im sure that will do!! Thanks Gary

Wow, calm down lol I thought this was meant to be a friendly place!! lol Obviously everyone doesnt know cos I dont and I just wanted to know if someone could help :S Guess it wasnt the place to come! Sorry! Gary

Hi, Im just doing a write up for uni and I need to find out what the natural frequencies for a Fender P-bass is? I know every bass is different and all but the pickups must have a similar frequency scoop on them though? I think its a dip in the mids but Im not really sure as I have never spent enough time on one to think about it! lol I never seem to get along with P-basses for some reason... If anyone has a rough Idea of a frequency I would greatly appreciate it!! Doesn't really matter on model just need an idea! lol Cheers, Gary

I am annoyed I did not know about this!! Larry Graham is a true legend!!
