It replaced a celestion that sounded very wooly by comparison. -
Molan, find music you Iove to play, it can seem like an age on stage playing material that does not interest you.
Give them a shove and keep looking.
Also, 25 songs seem a tad excessive. I have only ever had to learn a max of 6 for an audition. -

Guys , I have been in the studio and recorded three songs with The Wrong'uns.
I've been asked by a few BassChatters to post my recordings using the two Shukers.
The recording chain was bass into a Origin Cali76 compressor, Avalon u5 di into the desk with another feed into the 65amps Apollo valve head and 1x15 cab mic'ed with my vintage Sennheiser 441.
I set the amp to have a slight overdrive sound with the desk feed being totally clean. The two sounds were then mixed together at the mixing stage. EQ on the amp was flat with just a small mid scoop on the Avalon ( setting 4 ).

The first track, Unfall for you was recorded with the Artist using the piezo pickup only with a large scoop in the mids around 800hz. This gave a very clear acoustic sound with great weight and punch.
Twist the knife was also recorded with the Artist chambered body bass but using the magnetic Delano pickup only. This has a very Jazz bass sound, lots of punchy mids. I left the eq on the bass flat for this track.
Last was Stories in stone were I wanted to have a strong P Bass sound so I used the fretless for this one. It has a very P Bass sound with lots of depth and growl, perfect for a more heavy sound. I used just a little upper mid boost to bring out the fretless and P Bass split pickup sound.
Hope you enjoy these tracks as they give a very accurate sound of the Shuker basses.
Let me know your thoughts regarding the sound and the music.
Thanks. -
That's what I watched.
Great programme. -
I was so impressed with thIs bass I got Jon to build two custom basses for me.
I would recommend anyone considering a custom build to give him a ring. -

Personally, I think they are totally different! A much warmer, smoother sweeter pre vs a tighter, quicker brighter middier tone

Spot on.

Get it serviced is should not buzz. -
I watched it a few nights ago while feeding the young Voxpop. Can't remember what it was called.
Is it still on iPlayer ?
It had some great Folk music on it from full groups to single song writer / singers. -
Hi welcome to basschat.
That's a great bass you are selling.
Why not tell us about yourself, the music you play and join in the basschat fun.
-
Thanks for the info Musky.
Anyone else have other considerations. -
Guys, can you help.
What is your recommended sites for music storage ?
My band has finished an EP and I want to use online storage so that I can link it to Facebook / MySpace etc.
Thanks. -
Please introduce yourself and tell us all about your band and music.
Have fun and join in.

Yep.
The problem I have found with wattage is that it does not indicate how loud the combo will go.
No one knows how that figure of 80 watts was measured and the loudness is also controlled by the sensitivity of the drive unit.
Most 80 watt ( budget ) combos will barely keep up with a drummer, even at moderate practice levels.
I would get anther bass player or shop to give it a once over to make sure it is not faulty or damaged.
Hope this helps.

How about an Ibanez TS9 b.
It's just as you described. Subtle overdrive with a hint of fuzz and very sensitive to the players touch.

For me there is only one shop.... Mansons in Exeter.

Great bass...what's the piezo system?
[/quote]
It's a pickup under the bridge like an electric acoustic guitar. It gives a very pure tone that has a ringing / reverb sound that hangs onto the end of the higher notes, again very like an acoustic guitar.
does anyone gig sitting?

might be worth setting your strap length to the same height as when you're playing sitting down, (ie don't have the bass down by your knees!)

( see above )
The bass is the same height standing up as sitting down. Best of both worlds.
