It is not steeper, it's just that cut off frequency is higher on the Sushiboxfx.

Just this:

You mean a shim under the nut. However, as I, and since several others, previously pointed out in this thread, if there is buzz on fretted notes that is not a nut issues. In any case all that doesn't really matter, as the issue OP had have been solved.

Well, flat response is definitely very far from what you describe (it isn't noon position either though, which I called flat EQ), and usually isn't with cut or boost only EQ controls, entirely depends on how the preamp is otherwise voiced, which is usually set such that you that you can sort of emulate both boost and cut compared to flat response with the cut or boost only EQ controls. Also while the tone stack might be a traditional Fender tone stack, the preamp itself is based on a Marshall.

Also I've found out, the secret to using the EQ and making the pedal sound optimal is cutting EQ, rather than boosting, High at around 10 o'clock, Mid at around 11 o'clock, and Low around 10:30 o'clock sounds really great, in particularly. As an alternative to completely flat EQ (with that I mean EQ knobs at noon position) if you think that is too clanky.

He sure loves compression.

As I said, lots of popular TV series sound tracks include older music. My point was that young people are exposed to a fair share of older music. And yes, I don't think the fact that the TV series was set in the 80's have much significant to young people liking the song, that is is a very popular TV series I think it is safe to say has though, or at least explains how they got exposed to it, and why it could become a hit. There's a reason why it was that song and not any other used in the same show, and it is not that it is from the 80's, as most of the other songs used in that series is as well. But who knows...

Jazz is a very broad genre. As broad as rock, if not even more so. There are a lot of jazz outside of traditional jazz, just like there is a lot of rock outside of traditional classic rock.

Top 40 sure, mainly, but not entirely. Outside of that, alternative/indie scene/labels, lots of groups/bands. Including some relatively successful and popular, if not exactly Top 40, ones. But you are right, definitely fewer commercial groups/bands and more solo artists (and duos for that matter to a certain extend as well), than in the previous decades.

I was not really commenting on whether young people watch TV or not, which I honestly can't really see why is even relevant in this discussion, but whether they get exposed to other than contemporary music. Some computer games use older music as well. Also when measuring popularity such things as streaming music, from for example YouTube or Spotify, is usually included (unless of course it is sales charges in specific, but here sales of MP3s from for example iTunes or Amazon is included as well).

Yes, and much more than 10 years too. A lot of the popular series on various popular streaming services utilize older music. That is how Kate Bush's "Running Up That Hill" from 1985 became a huge hit quite recently. And yes, among young people.

No it won't. Your logic is flawed. Think again!

No, but I did compare myself to Buddha : Kind of...

You have neither proved worthy nor ready to get part in my vast knowledge. But begging, instead of threatening, might be a good start on the way to have part in it and achieve absolute enlightenment! On a more serious note I am not looking for a fight, so I politely decline your challenge. Better?

The depth of the nut slots only matters for the open strings, as soon as you fret the strings the nut becomes redundant. If this wasn't true basses that utilizes a 0 fret would buzz all over, which isn't actually the case. Are you talking about the open D and G string buzzing? If this is the case it is perfectly possible that the nut slots has been worn slightly too low over time. As suggested by others though it could also be a sign that the neck has warped/twisted. But if this was the case this would be likely also to affect the fretted notes and not just the open strings.

Maybe i should have formulated myself differently and said "P Basses are more popular than ever at the moment" (or at least more popular currently than they have been since the 60's/70's, where they were arguably even more popular).

Impressive set of teeth you got... You might want to see a doctor about that. Witch doctor that is... Looks more like a curse of some kind, and a serious one at that, than a regular medical condition.

Nice Kazoo!

Yeah, injured his shoulder really badly, when he instinctively tried to catch his falling old original Ampeg VST head at a gig, which left him invalid for a while, and ultimately caused him becoming addicted to painkillers, an addiction he later got out of, and unable to gig on a more serious level again, why he started painting instead as a creative outlet. Moral: If your just about 1 Ton heavy old tube head falls from the top of an 8x10 "fridge" cabinet don't try to catch it, least of all in one arm.

Doesn't it seem strange they are not showing in the reflection of the chrome? Who took the pictures then? They did obviously, but also it is quite obvious that they are in fact vampires, trying to lure in victims to bloodlet. On a more serious note, that looks an awful lot like artificial relicing there, it doesn't match with the condition of the rest of the bass and finish. In other words, it's a scam!
