Yep, the one I linked to above is included in my UAD package also, but I have a similar problem! However, the fact that so many people seem to swear by multi-band compression, even on a speaking voice (which is where a lot of my work is going to be from next month), inclines me to better understand and use it. I'm going to be watching those tutorial videos this weekend I suspect!

No that’s defo fingerstyle 👍

Some 90s MIJ Fenders had bridge piezo and split coil Precision PUPs and required a modification to make them playable, at least if you wanted to use both, there’s a thread on here somewhere 👍

Of course 👍

Now I’ve done it ….

Just asking, prices are getting silly?

No Fender/EBMM/Ric mass-produced bass is worth more than £1500 new

Starting to suspect the BFR and FCS instruments exist purely to make the prices of the standard offerings of EBMM and Fender seem reasonable 😡

Watch the vid

Seems likely

Breaking news Corona, CA: Fender Musical Instrument Corporation announce a radical departure; a Precision Bass with an existing part of it's extremity removed Yes, it's the Fender Circumcision Bass

Customer service doesn't come better than Ashdown 👍

Ah, it's a joke, not sure the Lowend Lobster is my kinda YouTuber

I guess this is the flip side of Fender’s conservatism 🤔

Sorry yes I meant 5ths of course, same as 'cello 🤔

And thanks for the helpful posts above folks, I'd completely forgotten about this thread 🤔

It's a fair point, but I think you'e missing something @51m0n, understanding of how to use the VSTs! Thanks for your input above, I'm in the UAD environment, what do you think of this as a starter of the multi-band compression journey? https://www.uaudio.com/uad-plugins/mastering/precision-multiband.html

You could tune your bass in 4ths like a 'cello?, there's a few string tension guides online that would help you get it right, although I'm not sure whether it's going to be as easy with a SS as it would with a 34"

We used to have a Uke player did the same, novelty wore off quite quickly however

Which should of course should correctly called the Fender Pretender 70's Preissue Series

Signed 👍

Likewise 👍

At least he admitted it, I did two gigs with a guitarist who was playing a major chord at the beginning of Hotel California and kept denying it was him, despite the fact that even when the other guitarist dropped out there it was…..

Reminds me of a great gig we did ‘That wasn’t the right change for ABC’ ‘We weren’t playing ABC….’ Talented players like me and @Happy Jackcan play two songs at the same time 👍
