  1. In I go. About the song: The disintegration of the family unit due to overindulgence in technological quick highs can only be stopped by those who truly value and embrace the human experience... or forget to charge their phones. The tech stuff: Mostly done in Reason but a couple of different syths added and then mixed in ProTools
  2. How close are the pickups to the strings?
  3. Rumours of your demise have been exaggerated?
  4. In Warmoth you cannot specify the heel size. They stick to Fender specs. "2.906" width fits neck pockets with USA Fender® original 4-bolt heel shape & dimensions"
  5. The VM4 is the reversed P and MM pickup model? Is the tonal issue on all pickup selections or one specific pickup? Is the MM wired in serial or parallel or can you switch? If it's hardwired serial (which would give a mid heavy sound as you describe), adding a switch to allow you to change to parallel wiring could get what you're looking for very cheaply. If you like how the bass plays, I'd generally try to achieve what you desire on that before spending big money on something you may not get along so well with.
  6. Not every Youtuber knows what they're taking about 🤔
  7. With a 1.5" nut. Many blasphemies have been committed on this day.
  8. For those who got offended by the first two... P salute you!
  9. I wonder does X mark the spot where the headstock snaps off?
  10. Sterling by Gibson?
  11. Far beyond budget
  12. Not at all, it could never be more appropriate than to get nailed at a Carpenters gig.
  13. Tony Choy (Atheist, Cynic, Pestilence) Doug Keyser (Watchtower) Roger Patterson (Atheist) Bernard Edwards (Chic) Ron Broder (Coroner) Bill Gould (FNM) Troy Gregory (Prong, Flotsam & Jetsam) Doug & Muzz (Living Colour) Cliff Williams (AC/DC)
  14. Odd that they'd use exactly the same photos 4 years later.
  15. "Should" depends on what you want to hear. Use your ears, not your eyes, to gauge what is the best setting for you. It sounds like you prefer the way it used to sound?
  16. Get a rust penetrator spray, not regular WD40
  17. The opening three tracks of Manic Frustration by Trouble, the way each runs into the next, just sublime
  18. My old PRS had unbranded Ultrlites, so they do customise them for some brands but, either way, a mix of logos on the headstock is not what was ordered.
  19. Love the Krell shape, that's a winner. You weren't tempted to go with the multicoils and filter pre?
  20. I wouldn't accept it whether it was genuine or not. The different logo would drive me nuts.
  21. A new battery is always the first step. If the bass knob is stacked, that means it's most likely bass on the bottom and treble on top, but there are quite a few versions of the SR300 so a picture would help identify exactly what you've got. I'm guessing the EQ has both cut and boost functionality. There should be a centre detent in the travel of the stacked knobs. This is where they're neither cutting nor boosting. Set them there and see if the sound clears up. Boosting the bass will give you the muffled sound you describe so don't just turn everything up full. But let's start with a pic if you can to help identify the version of SR300.
  22. Practice is the only way through this. Do chromatic exercises across the strings, it'll get your fingers used to hopping from one string to the next. Start slow, focus on being accurate and slowly build up speed. You'll improve steadily until you get to the point where you don't think about it anymore.
  23. Their "Contact Us" page doesn't list Whatsapp as a means of contacting them, just call, email or submit the form.
