Something with a really low action, Decent tone... Maybe a 5 string. Pretty open about things. Wouldnt mind a 53' reissue in 2 tone sunburst, or a G&L L1000 plus some cash.

    More pics at bottom of the thread! Has been my main gigging bass for a while. Its got a lovely flamed maple neck. Used to have a Bartolini but now is wired with a Nordstrand 5.2 pickup. The wiring is slightly different to the average SR5, Most have a triple coil pickup, This one has a dual coil pup, So instead of having a nasal tone in the mid position it has a very dark and dubby sound. The other positions sound exactly as they should. Trans red with black pearloid guard. Its got a huge sound and plays brilliantly. Comes with a Hiscox Liteflite case worth lots. Was born on 6 April 2001 and was originally sold to Guitar Center in Rockville, MD. Would rather this bass was picked up from Bristol. Postage would be used as a last resort. Would prefer a part ex for a nice US jazz and some money. Might consider a Stingray 4 string with the original style bridge. Rob.

    So uhhh, What happened?
  9. Shockwave
    I actually quite like it. Very good cover of a traditional song. This further exemplifies that a bass can be used for many things.

    Bump, Still available.

    Hmm, Flats or Rounds do you reckon? -Rob.
  14. Shockwave
    Hmm, I am pretty sure my rig is a nice mix. Its one biamped cab, 1X15 600 Watt eminence speaker and 2X8's for a little high end definition. My marshall is pretty clean sounding, Maybe i want to go tube again. I'd need a pretty small amp head though, I dont drive and dont intend to. Bass wise, I love the look of the ovations, Not a fan of SG basses at all. How much dub is truly played on fretless? I can see why it would be good, But what artists use fretlesses for dub? Youtube examples maybe? Cheers. Rob.

    Well damn i must be lucky But i bet he used a rosewood board one

    Hey guys. Classic track and fantastic line, But who was the bass player and what bass did he use? Any idea on the rig either? Fantastic guilty pleasure track, Pity nothing else by the girls compares! -Rob.

    hey guys. I want to start playing some modern Dub Style bass. Much in this sort of vein of Dub trio. Which is a mixture of Dub Rock and metal. [url="http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=dqHV3UroHYs&feature=related"]http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=dqHV3UroHYs&...feature=related[/url] (skip to 30 odd second mark) Or Matisyahu. [url="http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=hip2i9yHZ38&feature=related"]http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=hip2i9yHZ38&...feature=related[/url] Anyway, I find jazz basses not my cup of tea. And i dont want to have to get this dubby effect with alot of bass pedals. So what basses would be suited to this task? Thinking along the lines of, G&L L 1000, Telecaster mudbucker bass. Etc. I need something for around 300-500. Preferably non pointy or ridiculous. I have a bunch of Musicmans but the bridge bucker just is not dubby enough on its own. Also i am not a fan of Jazz basses. Also Flats or Rounds? (Considering i play VERY light Rounds and have never played flats) Rob. PS, I am not looking for an old school sound. very much hifi/dub.

    Jaco.. I dont even play fretless.
  19. Shockwave
    Well as long as a planned sale goes ahead by the weekend, I should have this. However i dont mind if someone takes it before me
  20. Shockwave
    How much are talking here? Ballpark. Quite interested. Hows the fretwork?
  21. Shockwave
    What style headstock is the 5 string set geared for? 3/2?
  22. Shockwave
    Ooh lovely If i had the cash i would! Rob.
  23. Shockwave
    This is seriously a stunning bass, One too many colours in the burst, but gorgeous none the less!
