    +2 (SBMM Shorty ‘Ray & NS Design WAV 4 upright). None out, but next year could well see 3 go.

    When I first started playing bass, it seemed as if my music collection grew massively overnight as I became far more aware of the bass on the recordings. Have a listen to yours and hear what the bass is doing, especially rhythmically, it’s not a bad way to learn your new role. Add to that the techniques available as mentioned in the online resources mentioned by @lownote and you should be well away.

    Pacificas are fabulous guitars at every price point, this one looks very nice. GLWTS.

    Not to mention a pain in the wallet come string change time.

    I’ve just had to learn that for a new band. Jacob’s Ladder - Rush

    And how piste off some folk were/are/will be*. *Covering all my bets there.

    That’s what I’d surmise. Link to the BD LaBella page https://www.bassdirect.co.uk/bass_guitar_specialists/LaBella_Flatwound_strings.html

    Ooh, tough one. Of the 3 purchases I made this year, they’re all very different and all do what they were purchased for very well. Bass wise, I guess my shorty ‘Ray, as this has convinced me that short scale is the way forward for me (says the man who just acquired a 42” scale bass ).

    The 760FL LaBella’s are long scale. EDIT: Copied from the Bass Direct website: Short Scale - 32" Winding Medium Scale - 34" Winding Long Scale - 37" Winding Extra Long Scale - 38" Winding Hofner Beatle Bass Sets: 34" Winding 760F-MUS for Mustang Bass (through-body): 33.25" Winding Bass VI Sets: 35.5" Winding Jaguar VI Sets: 32" Winding Danelectro Sets: 32" Wound String Length

    Welcome to BC and back to the bass fold.

    The definition of insanity is expecting any thread on BC to stay on topic throughout.

    Plenty of mature (at least in years ) types here, you’re amongst friends.
  14. ezbass
    Yes, he has.

    I was wondering about this mod myself today. Yeah, that works, that really works. Now I want one!

    It’s growing on me, but I know exactly where you guys are coming from. The American Performer could benefit from a rounder bridge pickup, to make it easier on the eye too IMO, maybe a ‘51 P style one?

    Just had a meet up with the guitarist of a new band for me. He came to Ez Towers and he took one look at my Mustang and said, “Yes!” We’re going to get on fine. 😁

    Starting to gel with the beast at last. It would’ve happened sooner I think, but I’ve also just landed a position with a new band and have been woodshedding their set list.

    I shouldn’t be looking at the for sale section because Santa came early to chez Ez.

    Whenever I’ve had direct dealings with Hipshot, they’ve always been very helpful, so this comes as no surprise. I look forward to seeing the installation on the SG.

    I once tried out a Sadowsky Metro Express (pre Warwick) in GG, Camden. I was running through some Geddy lines, when I heard one of the staff accompanying me on guitar.

    Works for Pino too.

    Taking, or asking to use (not always allowed) a strap is something I learnt to do. Hopefully, there is also a selection of amps you can choose from in store and you’ll know which one is close to your own rig tonally, which you should know how it sounds like soloed.

    I’ve just realised that all of my current basses have been bought sight unseen and I’ve surprised myself at this realisation. Previous to these, I’m pretty sure all my basses were shop bought.
