Dread Bass

<<<<<< thats me on halloween

My alembic epic i love it with my heart and soul i play six string much more now but i coudnt let it go ever.

contact obbm on this site he will do them for u he does a great job makes wat u want and charges a fair price

Thats not me that is steve digorgio he is the bass player for death, sadus and many others he is regarded as being the best metal bass player by many. so in short i wish that was me. i wish i cud swap that would be a party trick.

AH choices choices it hurts my head nevermind i will get reading and wait and see wat John thinks

hi Chris it already has a three band eq with an 18v system but the pickups are passive. So will alrady have a preamp? but a preamp upgrade would be nice too if it doesnt have one. Sorry electrics confuse me. I really like the bass and its not easy to find a 6 string left handed so i think my best bet is to upgrade this one.

thanks dood, im going to have a look today at dimensions. i really fancy nordstrands i figure if im going to upgrade i may as well go all out. i am thinking of getting a refinish now as well as i really hate the orange tint. i gave your mate john shuker an email about it.

its one of these:

Hi I have a 6 string schecter studio bass i really like it and am playing it more than my others just now. It came with emg hz pickups which are passive and as this is the bass i will use live i am thinking about upgrading. what do you recommend? are there any direct replacments except active emgs obviously? is it worth it? what do u guys think

+8 =441

hello got to love the black stain it looks awesome

i have two five strings with 34" scale and they seem to be as good as my 35" one. So have we been lied to then does anyone think it helps? sorry just seen the above post. Anyone else

oh kay

well maybe its just me but ihave heard that word used loads to describe people from all over east asia. Thats why i find it offensive. To me it is a racist word used to describe the colour of someones skin so to me it is exactly the same.

sorry to the OP for hijaking your thread

Im sorry but refering to a british person as a brit and a chinese person as a "chink" are just not the same thing. The conatations of the words are totally different the word "chink" [b]is[/b] a racist slur and to me it would be the same as calling a black person the N word. I am all for free speech but if people cant use it to treat each other with respect then where is the point.

well done iv wanted a acoustic for years but hav never been able to justify it

I kind of want it but my common sense is saying no

there is a factory tour on the alembic website www.alembic.com i dont no how to do one of those link things

i WOULD SAY DOWN RIGHT OFFENSIVE

I guess if you only play 4 string fretted then having more that a couple a bit overkill but i have 8. four good basses and four cheap ones. I have the cheap ones for fun. to mess about with and i just like having them around but the 4 good ones are more practical. My alembic is for recording as is my fretless rick turner to an extent. then i have my 6 string for live and extended range stuff and my fretless stingray for live too. I really want a five string fretted but then i would have to get rid of one of the five string fretlesses as i dont use them that much.

i agree i think thats what the problem is i thought i had got up to speed but i guess not i will work on that for an hour first today. if anyone is interested the band are threnody: www.myspace.com/metaltodiefor it melodic death metal some of the songs are kind of like opeth i guess.

hi nice to have you i used to live in leicester for a year it was pretty cool im in notts now but my g/f lives in loughborough so i still go there all the time

yeah i think tomoro when i practice i will get the metronome out and warm up slowly and try to stick to using three fingers rather than changing between the 2 im still not comfortable with the three finger thing but it is easier to play faster and i find it more consistant.

cool i was wondering about putting the cold pack i got for my back on it to see if it helps. Im falling to bits at 23
