EMG Pickups in a Bartolini shell! Finally! Wow those Tobias Basses are gonna get a nice upgrade
“EMG suggests the E4W pickups are a wide aperture big fat single coil type pickup..”

Basschat, reference my last status, thank you for being an awesome place to be. None of that other ****, just bass 😍

I’ve just disabled my social media and I’m looking forward to having a break from the constant doom & gloom, thirst traps and selling flesh for validation posts.
(Make sure you follow Bass Gear Magazine on YouTube, Facebook and Insta though as all the good stuff from me will go there still )- Show previous comments 1 more

I miss the interactions with my friends, family and the amazing people I get to work with, but it’s the 95% spam, clickbait, fake stuff, biased politics and pick-me posts that makes me 🤢. Life is pretty overwhelming already right now, so I’m tapping out. I agree with you, social
media is designed to make someone else money and it’s not good for mental health for both the viewer and the creator.

Every now and then I get an incredible pang to return to my amplifier roots and get a Marshall. I’d love to own a 7400, at least try one out. (Although in reality, the Marshalls were my first amps, the Ampeg SVT 2 Pro stayed the longest)

@walshy I’m gonna look in to that. I’d love to buy it back should I be able to.

@WalMan! Same here! Mine’s a 68/69! I think that’s a job for this week! Love ‘em! It’s making the noises in this review I did :

I think I've reached that, "I've got all this stuff that isn't gonna ever get used" state. Projects that will never see the light of day.
Some of it is worth selling, some may as well see the bin.
I think I could do with a cathartic gear purge to clear the decks both physically and psychologically.- Show previous comments 2 more

What @prowla said

300+ videos added to my review mega thread!
The only thing I haven't been able to do is update the current post URL list nice and neatly with the new playlist entries. I might need some help!!!

@eadThank you! I would LOVE to hear it - especially as you also have EMGs on board which will be what I go for. I may choose J pickups, but now I have seen EMG P's in situ, I am intrigued!

TC SpectraComp bricked:
Failed to update firmware two times, third time lights out. I now have a very small door stop.

I have three TC Polytunes, all of them play up every now and again. I leave them for a bit use a different one, then a couple of months later come back to the faulty one, and it works!
I also have a Spectradrive that still works as an EQ/Pre-DI but the tone prints won't load.
I won't buy anymore TC Electronic pedals

This is my current exciting job!

YOUTUBE https://www.youtube.com/@BassGearMagazine
and here:
I used to work for GI and despite having recorded the best part of 400 videos with GI, sadly you'll only find about 150 on YouTube, you'll have to trawl the last ten years worth of back issues to see them all and even then many issues are missing!! GULP!!!

I've covered some really awesome pieces of kit in great deal over the years, so if you are looking for real world information BassChat, this is a good place to start

Big ole love! Dooooooood!

It has only taken me X years to finally get round to switching out the two band Glockenklang pre in my MIJ Fender for a three band Glockenklang! It will, after many years, match its sister MIJ!
I adore my Power Jazz Bass Specials!

I've recently started recording all my own review videos for Bass Gear Magazine based in Ohio. Yes, I still write for Bass Player Magazine as I have been every month for the last (nearly) two and a half years, but I would love for you to follow this magazine and YouTube channel too!
https://www.youtube.com/c/BassGearMagazine/videos
It does mean that I've not been posting to my own channel, but would really appreciate a follow there too, please!!
https://www.youtube.com/c/DanVeallBassist
I want to produce the best videos I can, so I'll be keeping an eye on threads like these to improve my content!

QuoteNah. Was interested when it was a bass show, but quietly changing it to the electric, acoustic and bass show without telling ticketholders was a bad move. lost all interest.
Yeah it is disappointing. As an exhibitor I like a bass only show, as it means that I can be sure everybody walking past my booth is interested in what I am showing.
However. Paid in full to do the show in 2020. So it's not like it's costing me anything. Look forward to seeing you guys there. We have new UK made basses (SWB Deluxe, SWB-1, CHB-1 and CHB-2) on show! Come check them out.

One of my students has an awesome sounding Jazz bass. I don't actually own a Jazz bass. Now I need a Jazz bass.
If psychologists want to come and study terminal G.A.S, you know where I am... lol

The Bass Gear Low Down #45

I am an independent (freelancing) music gear video reviewer and demonstrator. If you own or know of a brand who are looking to have video footage produced for social media, drop me a line. I’d be interested in working with you.
Maybe you are a shop wanting to show off basses for sale, or are a small company producing pedals, a massive worldwide brand wanting quality media by someone who knows what they are talking about or simply want a company introduction video; let’s have a chat.
I’m also working on producing voice over media as I have a studio set up here too.

Does anyone have any recordings of a (their) Fender 58 Roasted Ash Precision Bass?
