Listen to when I play the 3rd string. I play the g and e first and then the d and a strings which are the problems one. I'm using a set of Power Slinky's that I put on 2 minutes before.

Fixed my horrible spelling! video coming shortly

Hello,

I'm having a bit of trouble with my 2008 Musicman Stingray. Everytime I put a new set of strings on it, One or more of the strings (Will be perfectly intune and perfect intonated) will have a weird phasing sound on it. The problem mostly occurs on the d and the a string. I have tried many different set of string and it happens with all different types of guages. It also only happens when playing the open string

I know this sounds like an odd problem. Here is a video [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Aa6F5j8q13w"]Bass Problem[/url]

Is there anything I can do to stop this?

My bro bought the 12 inch when it first came out - he's always had better taste than me and he is a drummer!

God the vocal on tht is weird! IMO, other than in daft punk songs, vocoder doesnt really sound right in in funk/soul!

The breakdown of this song is quite fun to play.

Haha I jest. I definitely agree with your previous statement. Its like in singer's ranges. Just because you can drop down to C-2 or up to belt at C+3 doesnt mean you need to do it in everything you do. Having the ability to go that little bit lower or that little bit higher when the song requires is always good. 5 strings do open up this ability to players, but I believe IMO that most people are more comfortable with 4 strings as a ease of use thing.

your "technology", made prettier.

I definitely prefer 4 string basses. If you need to lower than E, use a sub-octave pedal

A very comfy strap to help me bear the weight of my Gibson Victory Artist might be a good idea also. Maybe a gigbag - buying and selling of basses in the last year has left me with only 2 bags and 1 hard case for 6 basses.[/quote]


Honestly one of the best guitar teching tools I've bought in a long time

I'd say its a must.

Thin Lizzy, Motorhead, The Police, Bands fronted by bass players have been my inspiration since I started!
