  6. first get a pro bassist....really pro put a down market precision in his or her hands...suitably set up and strung...be fair that is a variable on all basses lets see what they can do with that i used to play clarinet and saxes and was pretty adept at it after around 30 years of playing when i used to meet a learner...and that can be any age...they usually complained that once they were better they would buy a pro model having started on a student one i could blow them away with my mouthpiece and reed (after checking for mechanical faults and pad settings)...my set up and strings as it were...by getting good tone and dynamics with no squeaks its in the hands of the player...albeit there must be some downside..poor fret finish etc...but it shouldnt be a drag on your playing so my answer is most budget basses...reasonably made and set up...can do the job after all someone has to take that signal and put it through some electronics to do the recording etc
  7. how do they sound using a squier or mim fender as 1 can the fodera reach 4 or 5 on an upward scale i looked on their website and they seem to be going overboard on woody impressions can you see that on a CD [size=1]<grins jealously>[/size]

  13. [quote name='neepheid' post='411756' date='Feb 17 2009, 10:10 AM']They do come with screws when new. It would be particularly annoying to have to find gold or black screws lying around in the average spares box However, if you have the original bridge screws then use them. They'll be exactly the same thread as the hole they came out of and will screw right back in no problem.[/quote] thanks neepheid...that was a stupid comment i made...dohhhh anyhow i did find some screws in my spares box which arent the originals...and only 4 the same head shape glad you pitched in about the existing screws fitting cheers geof
  14. [quote name='waynepunkdude' post='411466' date='Feb 16 2009, 08:32 PM']Cheers matey, do you think it would be better to use the original screws off of the MIM bridge?[/quote] yes i do ....the badass is only a bit thicker but is countersunk a bit so i assume the idea is you use the originals i dont think a badass comes with screws anyway the idea is that the screws tighten into the wood far enough to be a good tight hold keep in touch, wayne cheers geof
  15. bartolini do good passives with no poles and a emg active eq can be fitted to handle any adjustments [url="http://www.guitarandampshop.co.uk/acatalog/EMG_Pickup_Accessories_for_Bass_Guitar.html"]EMG BTC[/url]
  16. [quote name='waynepunkdude' post='411156' date='Feb 16 2009, 02:49 PM']Awesome, cheers matey.[/quote] [url="http://imageshack.us"][/url] [url="http://imageshack.us"][/url] found some screws which should work they only have to take shear so dont need to be any deeper into the wood than the stock screws remember to make sure your earth wire is splayed out like a fan so the bridge can bed down on it and give good earthing somewhere near a screw so it will bite down on it if someone puts the bridge on for you check that they do that till later then cheers geof
  17. [url="http://www.soundjunction.org/thedoublebasstuning.aspa?NodeID=0"]long time ago[/url] bassists used to switch between instruments and playing venue full orchestral players doing jazz clubs and getting involved with the electric bass so..... the tunings stayed
