GHS has a 70~140 set that will do the job : https://www.thomann.de/gb/ghs_bass_boomers_70_140_heavy.htm But the question is, do you have the amp and speakers able to go that low, which must be at least 1000 Watts and the speaker going down to 26 Hz (fundamental of Ab - 1) if you want to hear your note clearly... Otherwise, you'll hear the first or even second harmonic which is enough for your brain to recreate the fundamental but the sound will be muddy, for sure.

Nobody mentioned SMV ? 3 bass players named Stanley CLARKE, Marcus MILLER and Victor WOOTEN, here live : And certainly not my project called Mildje with 3 basses (1 fretless soloing, 1 destorted rhythm bass, 1 grooving the same patern in 4,5/4) and 1 drummer, only 1 track called Stuyvenbergh during 45 minutes and played live only once for a jazz event... Arythmical and deconstruted piece of music that took 6 months of rehearsal to be in ... place. Great memories there.

Humming and buzzing could become a nightmare. Have you simply tried to find the non-noisy position (because there is one) by slightly moving in circle from left to right ? That said, to date, the only basses totally quiet I've owned are the Leduc's with their patented hum-cancelling dummy coil à la Alembic (which are also dead quiet) and my old Tune BEB-6 with their own home made quad coils pickups and original twin preamp. When I write dead quiet, I mean in very electrically polluted with LED lights, neon lights, switching power supplies, ... Ask @Marcoelwray what Delano pickups (same configuration as yours, but with 4 strings) he could recommend you, as on his Elwray Infinga, they are very quiet, powerful and articulated sounding. The bass pass around review is here with some videos :

I've just put it on Bassic.de, who knows.

Some people here really like the sound of a P-Bass with dead flats on it. That said the bass sound suits the music, which is the more important, isn't it ?

It's been a while since they used the services of subcontractors over here.

Like it a lot, reminds me of lots of 70's music. Just remember that Mike Oldfield did it alone in the studio and strangely live playing a P-Bass most of the time with guests as there were no easy to use looper at the time... Influence ? Hope there is an album out and some live shows.

This is a real steam style steel steal deal, still in a reel.

But has this steel some style to still be a steal deal ?

Still a steal.

I would rather buy this one here on BassChat than this slaughtered Aria :

🤣🤗🤔🤨🤐 It's all in the nuances. Lol

This is sarcastic, in fact, you are the one who didn't get it, sorry. And by the way, the correct sentence shoud have been : "I'm not sure you understand sarcasm : furthermore, I guess English isn't your mother tongue ?" And certainly not this approximation : I'm a bit fed up with this "not your mother tongue" remark as I do write a way far better English than most of the natives on this website. Period.

It's named 415, so 4 strings minus 1 that vanished makes 5 strings, hence the name BB415. Do the maths, you'll understand.

And here is a selection of what you can find easily (all type of knobs, so read a bit) : https://www.bestbassgear.com/knobs.htm?dir=asc&order=price

The John East concentric knobs are very light and with that clever spring system, say goodbye to unwanted static noises.

This modified Peavey TL-6 has been stolen a month ago and found back after 3 days : https://www.bassic.de/threads/peavey-tl-6-gestohlen.14869566/ Keep faith.

Sometimes, you simply put your gear in the trunk and get back at the venue for a few minutes to check you haven't forgotten something. You come back just to see an empty trunk. Those are real organised robbers as they have been watching you and they act fast : 5 minutes being the maximum time. Other thefst are done by stupid amateurs destroying everything around and taking sometimes a few hours to do it. Sorry to tell, but first people to check is your entourage, it's a well known fact, but don't become paranoid... I'll relay this steal anywhere I can.

Salut Julien, Content de te savoir ici. 😉 And he is the proud owner of some terrific basses : Basslab 6, Status 6 fretless and I hope that fantastic Capelli 6 fretless, among others. 🙂

Is it an Acus amp you're sitting on ? Nice bass, that said. Hope the fight was worth it. 😀 What about the full review ?
