    In ear bass equalizing - signal chain HELP

    in Accessories and Misc

    Posted

    Hi everyone!😊

    I am thinking of ordering myself a custom molded In ear monitors ( i am a bassplayer)  and the thing i was warned about (from a fellow musician) was,

    that i can expect a non enjoyable bass sound in my in ear which could lead me to abandon using In ears in general. The guy told me, it would be 

    almost a "must", to EQ my bass sound that is coming ONLY to In ear monitors. I did a research on In ear "signal chain", and so on, but i can not

    find any info or help on this, or that anyone is doing that.

     

    So - how do you wire your bass signal for a good In ear monitoring? (If you are using a wireless transmitter, of course)?

    Do you guys use your dry signal in your in ear?

     

    I would really appreciate help - Thanks😉

    FIRST! :biggrin:

     

    Willem offered me a trade - his 2 high end basses against my Fodera.
    We wrote countless mails before. The communication was super fast, open, kind and very trustworthy.
    As it came to a deal he sent me 2 of his basses in advance.
    He knows a lot about basses. A true gentelman and bass lover. 
    Would trade, buy (or sell haha) at any time. 
    300% recommended.
    And also on the top of that - a GREAT guy!

    Cheers,

    Super Light 6 String Bass Strings

    in Bass Guitars

    Posted · Edited by johnny1982

    Hi everyone!

    I have a little problem :yarr:

    Since my childhood i am used to play the 40 - 60 - 75 - 95 - 125 Superlight strings.
    It's just that i feel the most comfortable playing them. I tried to switch to 45 gauge quite some times
    but i just could never get used to the the feel as with the 40 super light ones.

    All is good with finding the super light strings for 4 and 5 string basses, but i noticed that
    finding a 6 string bass set is a bit trickier.
    The normal/common 6 string bass strings set is 45 - 130 with a 32 as a C string.

    Anyone has an idea if the super light gauge exist?
    ( I saw Fodera sells some but would i really have to order d**n strings overseas??)

    And IF no - would it be wrong combining a 40 - 125 set with a 32 string?

    Any help would be appreciated. :)

    Thanks

    Had one of those after selling my Trb 6 John Patitucci ( 6JP). In my humble opinion the 6p2 was better in every aspect - better electronic, better and more even tone across the fingerboard, less neck dive and actually practically no dead spots... Amazing sounding bass and built like a TANK!
    Probably the best non custom 6 string on the market if you can handle 35" and the weight 😊

    Have a bump - GREAT bass!

    Dead spots

    in Repairs and Technical

    Posted · Edited by johnny1982

    Hi everyone!

    I owned lots of basses and most of them have had a dead spot - from the cheap to the
    expensive butique Basses.

    I know - i went through lots of opinions - from internet to luthiers in reality. Most
    of the answers were something like : "the wood is an organic material and it's normal..."

    What i've discovered is that almost everyone bass i've ever owned had a "dead spot"
    on the 7th fret G string. IF this is a dead spot anyway...
    It just rings out faster, leading to harmonic (you can feel the neck vibrating more as
    compared on the other notes). Somewhere i read that a dead spot SHOULD HAVE less
    attack compared to other notes, and THE WOLF is the exact opposite.

    However - this faster outringing note theoretically doesn't match any of those two.
    There were some Basses that i owned, without a dead spots. But they were 3 out of cca 20.
    And no, they weren't Fodera-s or similar! A normal Fender Jazz Bass Standard, Fender Stu Hamm Urge 2
    and a Sadowsky RV5 Metro.

    I played a 5 string 24 fret Monarch who had, again, a "dead" spot on 7th fret, G string - pretty strong one.
    I noticed (it may be my assumption) that 24 fret Basses have a bigger "chance" of having a dead
    spot as the others... Still observing tho (Ok, Stu Hamm urge 2 had 24 frets, but it was really a lucky one)

    It is SO COMMON found thing on all the basses - also on the most expensive ones (custom foderas, ken smiths...)
    that i really don't know anymore...Do i care too much? Sometimes i think i will go nuts because of that...

    And after all that written - ARE this dead spots at all, or are those notes really LACKING of attack?

    Before going nuts - i try to calm me down with a thinking of all the bass stars on the planet...
    I assume that also they don't have the "perfect" outringing instruments in the universe, or...?????

    Can somebody discuss/give his opinion on this topic? :)

    Thank you and Cheers

    I know - Stu signed this bass for me at the clinic in Ljubjana (have the picture him signing it) - i was the original (the first) owner of this instrument.

    [color=#ff0000]2 Tuning Machines are not original[/color] - it's quite obvious tho since they arent's the same. (i ordered the originals (ultra deluxe lightweight)
    back the day and they were discontinued - so i got the "new" ones)

    I thought this should be worth mentioning already in the first post ?
