  1. Thats ugly. I think ill give it a miss. To be honest, I can't see myself ever buying a bass more expensive than my Euro LX and even that is far too good for someone of my very minimal talents.
  2. That'll be what im looking for. Ta
  3. Ive been looking for a comparison video, tonepump vs Haz. Is there anything out there?
  4. Its standard in metal to tune lower than standard. Its the only way to get a really heavy sound. Tuning down to from E to C is pretty common. I played in a couple bands that tuned down to A#. My current band is in standard and it's too high to get really doomy.
  5. @neepheid beat me to it and explain it better
  6. The bass tunes down half an octave as well
  7. I don't think anyone has ever used Satan's claw for doom metal so there's your solution. No one is going to tune down half an octave and then put on a capo
  8. This may have wandered a little off topic. What was the topic?
  9. My BB1100S has conventional, Fender style P pickup. My Spector has reverse P
  10. Very nice. I like a nice classic. That looks considerably older than my 70's/80's bikes
  11. They're struggling on but I've seen quite a few new Sportsters and Pan Europeans recently. Personally Id rather have Triumphs version of either of those. Harley, like American car manufacturers only build products for the American market and don't consider what the rest of the world wants
  12. Is it up there with the nitro vs poly paint tone debate?
  13. What does a reverse P configuration achieve compared to the standard Fender configuration? Ive got a bass with each type of P pickup but they're so different in terms of preamp and pickup position and bridge setup that I can't tell what reversing them has done.
  14. The important question is, can you get a tort pick guard to fit?
  15. I think it was back in the 70's the protection tariffs were introduced to help Harley Davidson. It was either that or they'd have to build a modern motorcycle
  16. Im sure potential buyers of a $350 Harley Benton will now buy a $1500 US made Fender or Gibson. Having said that, Harley Davidson would be long dead if it weren't for tariffs on far better imported Japanese bikes.
  17. Thats why you don't leave your P bass leaning against a radiator
  18. Thats not just what would happen in relatively poor northern towns. Here in this middle class south West town the same would happen except little Jemima and Sebastian will be expecting Percy Pigs instead of Haribo.
  19. I have one. The Le Bass is excellent but the Revolt is better.
  20. Meh is not the sound im looking for. Im using a Two Notes Revolt but finding theres a limit to how far I can push the drive before I lose note definition and its not enough dirt
  21. I have a Spector so active with high output pickup. Reverse P bridge pickup at the neck with J in the bridge
  22. The pure cremation advert with the bloke in a bath. Why is he in a bath? Why isn't someone holding him under to get him closer to that cremation he wants.
  23. My band mates used to have a grunge covers band but played the interesting, great songs rather than the popular classics. It didn't go well, everyone just wanted Smells Like Teen Spirit, Alive, Black Hole Sun and Man In The Box while they were playing Sweet Young Thing by Mudhoney and Greasebox by Tad and Love Buzz by Nirvana. This is why I won't do covers. I don't want to play the standard classics.
