I really want to build a Deakey bass...where do I start?
la bam replied to Edenburgh's topic in Bass Guitars
I did a deacon build on a vintage v4 years ago and used all Wilkinson gold hardware. Looked and played great. In retro spec if I'd have dropped a set of solder less geezer pick ups in, it would have been a killer bass for about £350. -
I dj'd for years professionally and theres no real comparison between Alto and QSC for playing music. Depth, warmth, definition, volume, reliability. However, whether it would make such a big difference solely for bass guitar you would have to decide. However, I still would never use just a 1x12. But again, that's personal preference

Help! Lightweight, loud, efficient cab (Eich/Mark Bass/PJB!?)
la bam replied to Wilvies8184's topic in Amps and Cabs
The traveller 102p is the best cab I've ever used. Lots of tone, weight and oomph (if we are getting tech ical). Its light and easy to carry with the solid scooped carry handle. -
O think they're a lot heavier then need be. I think these come in at 30kg+ each?

Agreed. I've definitely gone more punchy and got a more powerful bass sound now I've started to cut the real low end.
-
This may sound daft or obvious too, but ... the fact the cabs were vertical really made a difference, and I could feel the punch in my chest and back depending on which way i was facing. Thinking about it though, that's because they were at chest level. Theres no point expecting a punch in the chest, when the cabs are at calf level. You'll get a punch in the calf then...
-
The punchiest (in my definition) cabs I've ever used were markbass traveller 102 cabs (running x2 together vertically). Pretty much the only cab ive had that you could really feel punching you / pushing air.

You need a mij fsr midnight precision. I had one when I was in the queen tribute. It's all there in one bass, everything black and gold. I regret selling it. You can still find them, they're only a few years old. -

I have the same rig. Love it. I add another 2x10 for big gigs, but it isnt necessary. Great weight, great tone, great volume. Enjoy.

Agreed, I find really stretching the calves / hamstrings (touching toes) helps free up the tightness. Most of my pain comes when I'm tight and havent done any stretching or exercise.

I thought there would only be a few truly unique ones (precision, jazz, stingray) and more keep popping up I've thought of another - McCartney violin bass.

Afternoon all, I'm trying to thin the bass collection at the moment, so I have had an idea..... rather than keep a couple of precisions, jazzes etc which i like, I thought I'd try and settle / look for one of each of the main types of bass guitar - the groundbreaking ones. Trouble is I keep changing my mind over what the main innovations are. So far I have thought of: Precision Jazz Stingray (not got one yet) Headless (hohner b2a) What others have I missed? Or what would be in your 'one of each' collection. I'm not talking basses that are slightly different from the above, but really different in their own right, whether it be hardware, sound, looks etc.
