  1. I have a set of D'addario XL Nickel's on this bass, and really digging them, I dont normally get on great with Nickel strings as I'm so used to Steel, but very comfy with this set!

    Just finished recording this tone test, so you can hear how the bass sounds with fingerstyle, palm-muted thumb, slap!
  4. Haven't heard that one before, haha! Thanks! I've recently recorded a video with the pickup panned to the neck so you get a thumpier Precision sound without the Jazz bite.
  5. Put together this video yesterday, quite new to recording so excuse the EQ! but I think it represents the tone of this bass quite well
  6. Was setup pretty well! action was perfect, only a few minor tweaks here and there to the intonation!
  7. Hey Basschat, I've just started properly recording this bass and loving the bite from it! Anyone else here using a P-elite and want to share some photos/videos?? Cheers, Bill.
  8. I always use the Elites in active mode, they sound fatter that way! but the last 3 months I've been using the passive precision and got on really well with it!
  9. Haha - yeah sometimes I've found with the less tone controls on a bass it just sits nicer!
  10. I honestly can't remember how I set it for this, as it was a long time ago, but I can hear that i've panned to the bridge pickup! :-)

    Thanks! yes that was me - loved that arrangement! was super fun to play! :-)
  12. That was me yes, and thanks! The bass I was using was a passive American standard Precision! the one on the right :-)
  13. IMO the Black with the wood looks the coolest! :-)
  14. Yeah i agree, Our keys player is the M.D! Thanks!
  15. Thanks man - that Streamer was a 1990 model, i moved it on a few years ago when the custom shop came in, it had Nordstrand 'Big Singles' pickups installed in her, was quite similar in sound to the custom!
  16. Thanks mate - i was really happy with how the mix on that one came out especially as it was a live broadcast jobby, hoping it might turn up on YouTube at some point!

    Thanks - i have a few clips here from different points of view, but they won't do it full justice of course!

    Its a useful bit of gear in the right setting! the first time i tried it was just at a friends house, bass only and didn't really like it! but when you put it in a band situation, it feels great and keeps you locked in nicely with the drummer, aswell as feeling all the subtleties of your own playing right through your feet!

    To be honest its mainly to feel the drums! I have both snares and kick drum going through this thing, so when i'm far away from him on bigger stages i get a really good feel of what is going on!
