Can anyone point me in the right direction for a good tutorial for a Tumbao? I’ve got a piano one and it’s good but just not sticking. I need something I can play over and over till it’s in the noggin! Basic stuff, I just need to put the notes in the right place!

Actually it’s fine, I’m talking nonsense. It might be a problem on the track where the bass is boosted to 100% for the verse and 0% for the chorus but that track doesn’t exist!

Anyone use one of these? I’ve got a bass with a Delano sonar 2 preamp fitted and when I boost the bass the volume really gets much louder and when I cut the bass the volume really gets much quieter. It might be normal but seems a wee bit extreme!

Keith bought my fretless Rick, the transaction went incredibly smoothly and he was a pleasure to deal with! Thoroughly recommended top bloke!

I really like the look of them but a bit more expensive now. Gibsons are a bit of an unknown for me, so it’s hard to imagine what it might sound like!

Very similar!

Anyone have any opinions on these? I missed out on them when they were really cheap but am looking for a lightweight 5 that's a bit unusual.

I actually think I’m being daft worrying about it!

I reckon that's probably the case.

I already have a preamp, so I need a line level input but a lot of interfaces with line level inputs have combo jacks and they don't bypass the preamp, it's essentially a pad so you don't clip the interface. Probably no big deal but if you already have a sound you like then the interface preamp is not necessary.

That’s nuts

Can anyone recommend an interface that has no preamps or you can bypass the preamps ? Just for recording the bass, no mics or guitars! Can be a single input!

Bought an Ampeg SGT DI from Paddy. No problems at all and a pleasure to deal with. Thanks Paddy!

Thanks Chris really useful information mate, really helpful!

Probably a bit modern looking for me... which is the same issue I have with the Bass Collections even though they are 30 odd years old 😀

I’m just looking for a relatively inexpensive 5er that’s not two heavy. Had a stingray (too heavy) an old Yamaha which I wish I hadn’t got rid of! And currently have a couple of bass collections which are great but i dunno if I’d play them live because they are a bit marmite! I just like the look of Rithimic V and the config, obviously Jeff great but not a big factor!

Thanks! Was it relatively lightweight?

Any opinions on these or does anyone own one? I have unnatural cravings!

What model is that?

Anyone got any suggestions for a replacement bridge for an SB315? I've replaced the tuners and knobs but stuck on the bridge ... got a Song IL but it was too big!

This could maybe work!

I saw a switchcraft which looked small but no specs

Why isn’t it square!

Passive would be good but phantom also fine
