Total Watts

  1. I bought a Squier J Mascis Jazzmaster gtr. I wanted a tremolo to use like Jeff Beck.
  2. I have a U5 and a D5 . The U5 may be my best sounding short scale bass . The D5 is a lot easier to reach around the neck than a '51 style bass and looks the same. It is lighter too.
  3. Hmm Fretless, will read the topic. Would be very cool.

     

  4. Hi- I like Ashdown too . Live At Leeds is my favorite live album !
  5. when seated strap locks rattle. I do use them . They add length to a bass when in a hard case.
  6. I have an old AKG with a three position tone switch . It has been dropped many times . When I let a guit player use it I tell them it cost more than a Shure.Not that I got it very used for $20 ! The Beatles used on their second US tour (with Vox Super Beatle Amps ) a dark colored SM 57 mic that screwed onto the mic stand. I have one of these and I am picky about who spits into it.
  7. Once I put a large Dimarzio (like an EBO )pickup near the bridge on a 'Stang I used to have. This was backwards from everyone else. I used the tone pot for a volume - 2 volumes . It had a Fender tone with some raunchy highs added. A punk musician later bought it.
  8. I like my AKG D5. I want a mic that screws onto the stand . Not an old historic Shure . Ideas anyone ?
  9. There was a used one for $1500 at the local shop. Can I buy chrome pickups like that for my Mustang ?
  10. I wedge one into the amp by the grill or the chassis of the head. One in the back pocket of pants and one in the little jeans pocket. I can't afford to toss them away.
  11. Yes- I liked the 300 with 212 cab. The tone switches really change the tone a lot. How many watts for one cabinet ? This amp might be nice-it sounded good to me.
  12. His given name was not "Dusty". A new bass can sound good too.
  13. When I heard Bad Company he used a fretless Ampeg bass. On the records I just assumed it was fretted. Surprise!
  14. I have that bass except with mahogany wood and "walnut" finish. Mine is OK but less highs than a Mustang . It cuts well enough with a pick. Let us know- I might go with a Fender P pickup if it fits. Finding a case is next .
