The Short Scale Bass Appreciation Society!
Baloney Balderdash replied to Baloney Balderdash's topic in Bass Guitars
I looked for them too without luck. But my best guess is that they are working on a new version 2 with a pickup switch or a blend, instead of the P and J pickup both always full on, with no options for switching or blending, like this first version worked. I do however really love how that new shorty P Bass looks, and I actually also think the stock pickup sounds awesome. So will for certain soon get one of those. -

"Earfquake" by Tyler the Creator from his album "Igor" : -
Snappy would be around 1KHz, and bite would be around 3KHz.

Basses cost a lot these days

Also guitars and basses are not a great investment, fa safer and much more profitably investments to be made. -

Not it hasn't! In fact quite the opposite. Talking real value. -
If you really put your will behind it I believe you can do it!

Rotosound Tru Bass strings
Baloney Balderdash replied to scrumpymike's topic in Accessories and Misc
Can't imagine them sounding good near and above 12th fret on a short scale bass, unless you love a dead thud. -
Same, to be honest.

Then that strap probably isn't for you. It's fairly grippy. Most people are interested in the exact opposite, to battle neck dive issues.

I might be far from the optimal solution from a strictly aesthetical point of view, but if possible it would certainly fix it from a functional/practical point of view: Wouldn't it be possible to remove the current bridge and install an entirely different more regular one, or even mono rail bridge piece, and that way fix the problem?

Do these have a modern flatter, something like 12", fretboard radius as well?

Criminally underrated band and album! Their "Forever Changes" album from 1967, which these 3 songs are from, is no less than an absolute masterpiece, fully up there with some of the most iconic albums from that era. -
First of all try tying a hair band or similar tight around the neck and strings behind the nut, I am willing to bet that it the issue, despite what you say.

What I do: The cheapest capo Thomann got in their inventory, placed on the neck a bit behind the nut. https://www.thomann.de/gb/harley_benton_hbc06_capo_acoustic_electric.htm You might even experience that the individual strings all together rings a bit clearer after you've done this.

Roger Waters's remake of "Money", unfortunately, I'll spare you the link. "Digested shit" (quote from the new version of the song with extended lyrics), right on point Roger, couldn't have said it better myself. He never could sing, but he can't even play bass anymore... I think he is growing senile : -
Well, aren't we writing 2024?

Do you subscribe to any Bass magazines?
Baloney Balderdash replied to MikeTheMisfit's topic in General Discussion
You need a tittle like "I reviewed this Spector bass, and you won't believe what happened next...!!!", then a thumbnail with your face showing an idiotic caricatured grimace and an image of the bass in question next to it with several big red arrows pointing at the bass! That's how a YouTube video is done professionally! -
Just saw off that whale hump! You can thank me later!
