  1. If you get your hands on a Matt Freeman bass you won't regret.I re moded mine with Spb4 then Spb1. Eventually I reverted back to stock pups.
  2. I did order three times from one of them but I don't advertise for free. If they read this thread, they can pm me and for a small gratitude I'll post a positive feedback for the one I used.
  3. [quote name='Cato' timestamp='1486648146' post='3233517'] Might be a tiny drop of chorus, it sounds to me like it's mainly reverb or a very short delay. [/quote] Reverb might give it that big sound
  4. https://youtu.be/TBWoKaZKNXA What effect is used on bass between 5:10-7:33? Chorus?
  5. I own squier CV jazz bass. Replaced the pups with Seymour Duncans and can't fault it. I'm a p bass fan but when I occasionally play jazz bass can't get enough of it.
  6. [quote name='uk_lefty' timestamp='1485950525' post='3227908'] I don't understand what a tug bar is for? [/quote] Thumb rest is above the strings,tug bag is under the strings. Same thing slightly different purpose.
  7. Silly thing to put a tug bar on modern p basses. Why not thumb rest when most people use fingers or pick?
  8. I like the bridge.The intonation must be spot on.
  9. This post cannot be displayed because it is in a forum which requires at least 1 post to view.
  10. [quote name='prowla' timestamp='1485475283' post='3224334'] If you're patient you could build... I'm working on a Precision and so far it's cost me:[list] [*]£52 for the Squier body, neck and a load of parts. [*]An old Badass bridge I had, but there are decent quality ones on ebay for cheap (even Fender Badass copies for under £50). [*]£35 for some Shadow pickups (the Squier ones were weak and a shop had this as old stock). [*]£20 for CTS pots, a Sprague cap and a Switchcraft socket. [*]£30 for a scratchplate (in a job-lot). [*]£50 for a Mighty Mite fretless neck, including machines. [*]£20 for a set of strings. [*]£10 for a pair of Straplock buttons. [*]£10 for a 4-hole neckplate with an "F" on it. [*]£55 for a Hipshot D-tuner (guessing you wouldn't need one of these). [/list] It is a very nice bass! I'll probably replace the body at some point - had been thinking about a Warmoth (as you know from my J-bass thread), the scratchplate isn't the best fit and I might go for better pickups if the mood takes me. The point is, though, that I've made up a good bass for well under your budget, so there's no reason you couldn't too! [/quote] Hi, Out if interest, where did you get the parts as I am after a p bass body and p bass neck with tuners for a project.
  11. I'd try zinc, supplement not strings....
  12. https://youtu.be/iJZYG5qwHHI Only kidding...
  13. If I could justify having another one of these I'd buy it as I have a spare spb1 to go with. Have a bump on me.
  14. [quote name='Conan' timestamp='1484311578' post='3214569'] After trying a few, I settled on my Squier Matt Freeman sig. Not because I like Mr Freeman himself (in fact I'd never heard of him!) but because it just screams quality. And you could get three for the price of a used US P! [/quote] This. I never heard of him or Rancid until I bought the bass. I had spb 4 then spb 1 in. I then reverted back to stock pups as they sound great with the bass.the neck is comfortable. I have the Olympic white and it looks awesome to me. These are niw discontinued.
  15. Why so many pedals for recording a you tube video?
  16. [quote name='Burrito' timestamp='1483525917' post='3207839'] Prior to using the Boss unit I was very happy with this; http://www.gear4music.com/Guitar-and-Bass/Belcat-DLY-503-Delay-Pedal/B71 Ridiculously cheap and a lot of pedal for the money. [/quote] Cheers
  17. Thank you for reply. All these seem a bit too expensive though.
  18. My father in law wants to get an echo pedal. He has been using an ancient tape delay. I looked at tc electronic pedals but difficult to advise from online reviews only. He needs it predominantly for microphone use and some elektro acoustic guitar. Anyone has any experience with echo pedals?
