  1. Assuming you wanted the bass, would you buy a 5 string that weighed 10.4lbs?

      I've been spoiled by my sub-8lb Sadowsky P5 - My other Sadowsky basses aren't far off either at around 8.3-8.5lbs. Only problem with this is everything else I own now seemingly weighs a ton :lol:

  3. Got the GAS for a fretless Stingray at the moment!

      I had GAS for one of them once. It didn't end well for my bank balance.

  4. Hi guys. Any thoughts about how to choose better pickup and electronics for my Ernie Ball Musicman StingRay 4 3band eq? 
    I want more mids and less treble than in factory pickup and electronics. Which one will be best in my case? There's so much options on market and I almost always bump my mids and cut some treble on my Stingray so I need something that it will be more transparent and flat sounding or at least more mids and less treble. Thanks!

      Check the John East site. He makes different versions depending on if you have a 2 band or 3 band Stingray. The 5 string has the jack on the side anyway so was just a direct drop in replacement for my bass.

      This preamp:

      This pickup:

      I put the pickup in every MM i’ve had. My only MM bass right now is a fretless SR5 but it has the Nordstrand pickup and East pre. You can hear it here:

  7. I've been out of work with stress for a couple of years.

    Had a job interview earlier today - just had a message to say they were very impressed and asked if I can start next Monday.

    Now what can I spend that money on???

      Great news! You should treat yourself to a nice Bergantino AE410 like the one in the FS Section right now ;)

  9. Well here it is: 

    The video for my bands cover/mashup of Superstition and some Erykah Badu.

    Hope y'all enjoy :)

     

     

  10. Never let anyone dictate which bass or amp you should be using - they have NO idea.

      I agree.

       

       

      Now go buy a DB750 and 70's P Bass xD

  14. Doing taxes for 16 17. I know realise that I relied on PMs to track purchases. They are all gone :( Rats.

      Yep. Had the same thing happen to me! Luckily I didn't buy THAT much stuff so it made it easier to deduce what it was I had bought. Good luck mate!
