Depends on the gig but gigbag most of the times.

I've done exactly the same to mine as hated the flimsy neck but left the pick-ups in as it gave me a great range of sounds......[/quote] I think it could be the body from this bass: [url="http://www.thomann.de/fr/harley_benton_hot_rod_bass.htm"]http://www.thomann.de/fr/harley_benton_hot_rod_bass.htm[/url] Looks damn close to what I have.

SR5 I once owned (sold it to buy an electric upright). Still miss it now and then

My new FrankenFender: MIM Fender neck and bridge, body of unknown origin, Squier pickguard, Dimarzio pickups:

Well, this link is dead now...

Wow

I am Precision-less for the moment (waiting for my Fender-stein PJ project to finish...) but here are my two previous PBs: 1998 Fender AM Std, sold in 2008 2006 Squier Affinity, sold couple of months ago Strangely enough, I liked the Squier much more than its MIA predecessor! It played better and didn't have this annoying dead-note problem on 7th fret.

It gives 16 channels similtaneous recording and 8 mic inputs with phantom power. I've been using it nearly every day for over 4 years with no problems and I would highly recommend it. I think they make a 12 and 8 channel version too - google it.[/quote] I have 8-channel Multimix USB2, using it daily since 3 years, works well enough for me!

Bass will rule the world

Wow. For once in a while grammy jury makes good decision.

[quote name='minkey1980' post='1125719' date='Feb 13 2011, 11:05 AM']so I was wondering - what do you guys use for acoustic sessions?[/quote] Why, "real bass" (upright) for sure!

I like my GWB35. I've actually got it already upgraded with Bartolini 72BC5C but I didn't liked this pickup and installed the original instead. This Bartolini had too much low mids for me and muffled highs. The original pickup has rather low output but I don't really care, all my amps have volume knobs

I voted "Yes": In my own projects I mostly play 4 string basses. However as a sideman being able to play a fiver can make or break some gigs - as rare as it really happens I don't see why should I risk being turned down because of 3 stupid extra notes per song. So yes, I need it and I own two now - one fretted and one fretless.

I absolutely don't care about diploma but what's about quality of the courses they propose?

Have anybody of you guys considered online courses at Berkeley? [url="http://www.berkleemusic.com/"]http://www.berkleemusic.com/[/url] Looks interesting but pricey... If someone have something to tell, please share!
