Thanks for the comments all! I'm gonna set my bass neck even more straight and put some nice rotosound 66 strings on it. And yeah.. I'll try digging in my strings more .

Hi all,

I just came across a video of billy sheehan talking about his bass setup in which he showed an unique style of fret buzz. Its really hard to explain the kind of sound which i mean.. so here's an example:

You can clearly hear Sheehan having some buzz coming from his bass after hitting the "e" string at [u]3:43 [/u]specifically. Could anyone explain to me how this kind of buzz actually appears and how I can achieve a similar effect? I just can't understand it.

Thanks!

I'm going to order it this weekend. Though I might give the shop a call this evening/tomorrow, they might've already sold it.

I'm sure there's a hundred threads on here regarding this and a thousand of Sheehan's interviews talking about it elsewhere...but...what exactly is the purpose of the scalloped frets?

It makes the upper frets a little easier to finger and bend. But thats my experience with it.

Thanks for the quick reaction. The shop is asking 775 pounds for it. Its used though.

Hi,
I saw this Yamaha hanging in a local shop. They told me it was the LTD 2 version. However.. I'm not very certain about it since the yamaha website shows a different version. (The yamaha on the website has different tuners/ smaller name on headstock and the woofer pickup appears to be black.)
Could someone confirm wether this is the actual LTD 2 or not.
Thanks.

Thanks for answering my PM on the other forum.
Have a bump.

An instructional video about packing a bass for shipping. I found it pretty usefull.

If I only had the money lol....
Lovely bass, too bad that my budget is currently 950 gbp on its highest, which isnt worth the rickenbacker . Good luck with selling, have a bump I guess .

Wow.. thats amazing. Too bad that I currently do not have the money for this beauty.
Free bump for you .
