I own a HH EB Stingray, and the 2 humbuckers is definitely better than just the one IMO. You can get J bass trhough P bass as well as some pretty damn cool sounds. I use it for all styles. Depends if you feel you'll use switching a lot.

[quote name='squire5' post='1070615' date='Dec 27 2010, 10:47 PM']When you are installing new strings,do you wrap them round the posts a few turns before tuning up?This can cause that weird 'phasing' effect you're talking about.I used to do that a lot until I discovered thats what was causing the problem.Try removing the offending strings and then re-install them,without first wrapping them round the post.Take up the slack by using the machine head.Worked for me.[/quote] Yes I do actually, Will also give that a go and let you know how it goes!

[quote name='Grand Wazoo' post='1070495' date='Dec 27 2010, 08:36 PM']Is the action very low? I mean do your string buzz even when played open? Also... you are playing what is a 9V active bass through what looks like a tiny amp (no disrespect) have you tried it through a bigger amp / speaker? I have a feeling that the impedance of your bass might be a little too much for that ickle amp to handle, try the same with your bass volume down a couple of (imaginary) notches say from 10 to 8 or... 11 to 9 if yours go to 11 [/quote] No the action is relatively high, and yes I have tried it through my Ashdown Rig (210 abm combo with 212 cab underneath) Same thing, I dont think its anything electrical as the bass does still have the phasing when played acoustically. [quote name='Grand Wazoo' post='1070496' date='Dec 27 2010, 08:39 PM']f*** me! 55 to 110 gauge is massive compared to the average 40/45 and by average I mean as in most used by bassists worldwide. That might be the reason that a couple of strings aren't too happy in the slots. But try first with a lower volume on the bass.[/quote] Yea I like me string beefy Will give it a go in the morning

[quote name='Grand Wazoo' post='1070487' date='Dec 27 2010, 08:30 PM']ok, well what strings are you using, just out of curiosity?[/quote] Power Slinkys. 55-110 Also happens with elixars, DR And Custom and Regular Slinkys

[quote name='AsterL' post='1070472' date='Dec 27 2010, 08:20 PM']Yes it does have one of them, I shall give that a go![/quote] Done that no change to the sound whatsoever
