Fame Soft-Case Urban gig bag for bass
Hellzero replied to alinbassplayer's topic in Accessories and Misc
I've used this very semi-rigid Fame gig bag for a lot of basses and even guitars over the years: you can't find a better one at this price tag. I also own some MonoCases for my ultra high end basses, but the Fame is really doing the job if you don't throw everything in your car or on stage as it's protective enough. Go on, you won't be disappointed. -
Pickup suggestions for increased treble without increased noise
Hellzero replied to matybigfro's topic in Bass Guitars
And what about your ears, did you test them? Sorry, but it's the first thing to do, especially when you need to push the treble. Otherwise put some EMG JX (the basic ones) pickups, that would be your best option, even if there's a battery. No insertion loss with the ABCX, meaning that wherever you are on the blend position the output level will be the same. It's really a great plus. -
And if you want to play that marvellous tune, here it is note for note, and even with the tab for the fingering:

To get that Pino sound, you'll need a chorus, an octaver, a reverb and a real fretless bass with some round wound strings. All the fretless electronic gizmos are just illusions that are approximative, at the best. Check the ads online, like this one which is really good enough to start practicing fretless and it's also lined: https://www.gumtree.com/p/guitar-instrument/yamahs-fretless-bass-reduced/1480823606

Warwick Streamer Bass 1987 for parts - *SOLD*

You can try the Harley Benton stainless steel strings, closer sound to the RS 66's than the Warwick Red Label's for exactly the same price. And they keep their zingy tone too long for me. https://www.thomann.de/gb/harley_benton_hqs_bass_45_105.htm

Or not. 🫨

Ok, I'll type slowly. 🤣 The Elixir's will absolutely not sound like Rotosound RS 66's. The Elixir's tend to tame everything and lack the zingy upper register typical tone of the RS 66's. Was it slow enough? 🫣

Absolutely ... not.

Epifani...

Glockenklang...

But Bestial Cluster and Polytown are definitely Mick Karn's best solo albums.

To me Adolescent Sex and Obscure Alternatives are the best ones, and also the two first albums.

GR Bass AeroTech Full Carbon Cube 112+ / 450 Watts / 8 Ohms (latest version), purchased new by myself on April 10, 2023 so almost 4 years of warranty left as I registered it. Carbon is very difficult to photograph, and there are a lot of reflections hence the use of flash to minimize them, but there are still some. The condition is as new with some minor surface scratches in the aluminium and on the carbon. The actual weight of this cab is exactly 7.2 kilos, certainly the lightest 1x12 inches on the market. I'm selling it because I'm only using the GR Bass AeroTech Full Carbon combos (acoustic and electric ones) and have no use of the extension. NO TRADES! NON NEGOTIABLE PRICE! Asking price including fully insured shipping with tracking number, to your home, in these European countries (ask for other countries): Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France (excluding DOM -TOM), Germany, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Monaco, Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden and United Kingdom: €750 (£650 GBP is an approximation and I will only accept payment in Euros)!!! Shipping to the UK is of course possible and included in my asking price, but with additional customs charges (VAT + other taxes + courier costs), as the UK is now outside the EEC. Here are the specifications taken from the GR Bass website: Power AT Cube 112+: 450W RMS (AES Standard) Weight AT Cube 112+: 6,8 Kg- 15 lbs (exactly 7.2 kilos for this very cab!!!) Bass reflex On rear Frequency response 40 Hz to 18 kHz Sensitivity 99 dB SPL Dimension W40 x D35,5 x H45,5 cm W15,75 x D13,98 x H17,91 inch Speaker 1 x 12" custom Jensen/Sica woofer Impedance 8 ohm Tweeter Horn Driver 1" 3 position switch Will be delivered in a non original, but perfectly suited, packaging. Non-smoking environment as usual. What you see is what you get! Look carefully at the photos taken from different angles and lights to see the real condition, which is as new, with some minor surface scratches in the aluminium and on the carbon. I've also considerably lowered the price for a quick sale. Do not hesitate to ask for more information.
