Total Watts

  1. Adverts that claim a bass is as old as the time it's been owned. No your bass isn't 6 weeks old you BOUGHT it 6 weeks ago. There is a difference.
  2. I've never used Fat Beams but according to DR the construction process between them and High Beams are different resulting in a fuller sound. This is in concert with your description of each. High Beams are Sunbeams minus the nickel coating which is why I suggested them in a previous post. I didn't find them that rough at all though especially for stainless steel.
  3. I'll look them up. Never heard of them till now.
  4. The best strap I own in terms of looks and weight distribution is made by Marusczcyk. I have none of their basses but my Warwick that I bought it for hasn't said anything yet 🤭 You might want to look away at this point but I transported my Fender Jazz to rehearsal yesterday in a Warwick gig bag 🤫 Joking aside the M strap is a game-changer for heavy basses in my experience followed closely by my 4inch wide Levy's strap.
  5. I'm patiently waiting for one of those to turn up. I notice they're priced VERY differently from the 6 string version.
  6. True but my 24 year old Thumb and 19 year old Streamer still have their original just a nuts with no issues so far with either of them.
  7. Maybe it should be an industry standard?
  8. I would never have thought to have done that but fair play. Just as well the vast majority of basses I would actually buy have clip out compartments which I would prefer anyway. No chance of losing a battery door that way.
  9. Needing a screwdriver to break into a battery compartment. It's literally broken many deals for me in the past.I was miffed when the 2nd generation Sires went that way when they were first released especially after the 1st gen didn't.
  10. GAK and PMT 🥲
  11. The same (Sunbeams) but stainless steel = High Beams. I doubt you would regret giving them a try. I really like them personally. Probably the smoothest feeling stainless steel strings I've ever tried.
  12. As in taking other opinions with a pinch of salt as they're opinions not facts. I was serious about my post too but I'm still finding the entire thread generally entertaining 😄
  13. This is my entertainment highlight of the day so far. No way am I taking it seriously
  14. Curious which Yamaha bass models you mean or just Yamaha basses in general?
  15. Do you think it might be obvious because it exists already? It certainly makes nut adjustments an absolute breeze either way.
