WITHDRAWING THIS P.O.S. ......Fender Jazz US deluxe
steve-bbb replied to steve-bbb's topic in Basses For Sale
not much interest in this and as i have been looking at it more finding a lot of things that i am seriously quite unimpressed with - so much so i am going to ask the previous owner where he bought it from so that i can make sure i never EVER buy a bass from them!!! off to the luthier for some setup work WITHDRAWN for now -
i just bought a us j a couple weeks ago gigged it once on 27th for an hour and its gone back in its case and is up on the boards here and on facebook for sale - its a lovely bass in superb condition but i just dont like the feel of it but otherwise a huge J fan, like you say its not always easy finding the one you get on with when there are so many variants
-
no marks whatsoever, recently bought by me two weeks ago used for second half of gig for about an hour - purchased from one very careful previous owner (very low use) - IMMACULATE condition no marks or scratches whatsoever - Olympic white currently with a tort scratchplate but original black plate will be included - active/passive with fender N3 pickups - new style black moulded hard case - all the case candy - more pics to follow - reason for sale - i prefer my status as my main gigging workhorse collect maidstone, kent or will deliver 'reasonable' distance sorry forgot to add not really interested in trades except possibly a sandberg california or status plus cash

Maybe try listening/studying some easier examples , takenfive is probably the easiest that comes to mind, say something like gong/village master builder which is still easyish but requires more concentration and when you’re happy counting along with those search out some more complex ones and eventually you might be able to count along to something like zappa’s Keep it greasy

Do the best pro-bass players mainly play 4 strings?
steve-bbb replied to Al Krow's topic in General Discussion
can we safely assume you have not tried enough 5 or 6 strings in that you seem to safely make this sweeping generalisation i'd agree that a great number of lower budget 5s and 6s may not have a very satisfactory low end but from experience of owning an early 90s TRB6 i can assure you they are anything but that which you claim - try one out when you get the opportunity, they are a bit rare now but if you get the opportunity you will be very surprised -

this and/or the di out the front of the hartke - they 'assume' it is clean/pre but are blissfully unaware of the pre/post button on the back

steve-bbb replied to Rikkers's topic in General Discussion
i think linking it to trumpy pumpy or any politician for that matter, and inferring that gibson's decline could be terminal because of politics is a bit disingenuous - gibson's ceo and his board chums managed that all by themselves with their executive "lifestyle choice" decisions without any need for political scapegoating -

I don’t think theloose screws made it inside the cab is sealed not ported and it all sounds clean now

didnt have to disassmble the cab in the end just remove the back plate they were already missing so i guess theyve vibrated themselves completely free whilst being hammered by the LH500 at full whack lol
