I'm looking more at a Ibanez ATK 5 string

ash body and maple neck kinda thing

something bright sounding with a lot of attack


EDIT: I would still prefer the money to fund a custom

Thanks for views

[attachment=138296:IMG_9400 as Smart Object-1.jpg]

It's a Discontinued Signature series of John Myung of Dream Theatre before he moved to Music Man

here are the nitty gritty specs of the bass:

Ambient glitchy stuff, more chilling kinda music, I am aiming to release a track a month and to have people guest on it *hint hint*

so if anyone fancies jamming on a track in any instrument then lets do it =D

Hi

What do people recommend for new pickups in a 5 string P bass

I have the stock ones still in it and they are a bit lifeless IMO

I really like MM style pickups but I dont want to carve at my bass


any suggestions on pickups for making that tone?

Its for a BC Rich Heritage Classic 5 String

Hi guys

Now some of you would know me from doing death metal in Uphoricide

but as I am getting a little bored with metal I decided to do something else in my solo project Ryuss Form

its not very bass orientated but you may like

I am also looking for people to collaborate with in the future so please message me if you would like to jam

[quote name='Chris2112' post='1369205' date='Sep 11 2011, 10:57 AM']I noticed that when I bought that DVD, namely that I was commenting that even Myung didn't like his signature bass in standard form! The bass surely won't have a massive resale value so you're not damaging anything really valuable if you do fit another pickup.

If it changes the bass for better and you're happy with the bass then that would be great, but it sounds like a big job on a cheaper instrument like the RBXJM2, which will need to go to a luthier to have the front routed for the new pickup and a pickup selector control added. And given the finish on the front I imagine it will be a tricky job to do, not as simple as just stripping a finish off a natural finish bass and routing the pickup space out.

So give this some serious consideration. In my opinion, the RBXJM2 was never a good bass and I considered buying one until I got my hands on a couple and realised I didn't like them at all. If you go to all this trouble it might still not be great, and the lack of tonal quality that you've identified now could be due to any number of things, not just the lack of a pickup right next to the bridge. I would consider selling and moving on. I suspect a TRB1006 would suit you well if you're into Yamaha basses.[/quote]

Thanks for your opinion

I will definitely take it into consideration

I'm tempted to buy a tech 21 sansamp bass driver to help the tone, that way no "damage" to my bass and I can use the same sound for all my basses

thanks again

So i have a Yamaha John Myung RBXJM2

and its a great bass with a great sound but I have noticed that John Myungs Version of this has an extra pickup compared to the released series

check out the Dream Theater Live Budokan show where he is using the silver version of this bass

now heres my idea

i am tempted to add a bartonli fat stack pickup to the bass in the same position as he has his extra pickup

this will give the bass a lot more attack which i feel is missing a little from this bass

do you think its an idea to go forward with or not??

bump again

no one interested?

Bumpers!

hi

thought i would post a pre production of my bands new stuff

we have took some tips from the last time i posted on here so we have took that into consideration
as this is only a pre production so the final version of the drums have not been complete yet

This is also the first song with new co vocalist Suthee Phoncheewin
