That's pretty much what you get, along with a Jazz sound available, on a 'P Deluxe'. Even the body is tending towards Jazz cut. Base covered.

Eh? We get two weeks iso from diagnosis here.

I could have sworn I replied to this a couple of days ago. I had a look at the site to see what all the fuss was about. Perfectly navigable shambles, which makes it's own statement about business I suppose. It's a good thing it is way over there or I would have a Japanese P I don't need.

P type 2+2 pickups have a less than perfect hum bucking relationship that doesn't carry forward to the 3+2 set perfectly well either. Just to complicate things.

But you know where he keeps his dog.

If the sandwich material would take a screw and hold it there would be a lot more CF in the bass cab world. Sadly a minor knock to a fixture will tear the fixture off when it is screwed on. That sort of 'careless use' isn't so uncommon and accidents happen. In my world the tradeoff for extra super light doesn't overcome my reluctance to have to deal with the fragility. I said it before, in this thread probably, what they should be doing is a plywood baffle, glue on some more substantial puck style feet, and corners. Then you would only have to worry about stray impacts. Carry on the super light theme with a Kevlar slip cover.

Nope. I see what you mean, but damn, what colour is it actually???

Different number of pickups.

I'd be reluctant to buy anything with two sets of photos of different basses mixed up.

Crazy8 in the classifieds. Hide under the bed but gigable at polite volumes.

The only pedal I ever sold and replaced.

Carbon fibre cabs were falling into ruin ten years ago. It just isn't the right material for rectangular boxes and stuff fixed on with screws. There's another composite material that is ideally suited. It's name is plywood.

Good tip. (Ba-dum---tish)

Recommended to get a good handle on TS TRS before launching into these buggers.

I'll stick to my OHSC as it suits.

Should have stuck with whiskey. The pint has put you crook as the edited version is still the same answer to the same different question!

That would be the answer to a different question.

My old Trace 1518 came with advice in the manual for the through grill tuning ports. ''Goes lower, but not as loud, with ports plugged''.

If FOH haven't EQ'd the PA for the room that's for them to fix first. My bass sound is sparingly EQ'd with some preamp flavour. If it's all boomy in the room it's because they haven't EQ'd the fine PA.

Usually it depends on the amp's preamp. Master 'output' being an attenuator only, cranking up on the preamp gains blasts on through the master.

Because you only trust your precious to its OHSC.

In that case you want a preamp and a FRFR rig and tell him to listen to the DI before passing judgement.

Publishers do it on behalf of artists en masse via the venue licence schemes. It's very much worth their while.

Home made leads. Soldering good enough for leads can be learned in a few minutes.

Used Yamaha BB series basses go for peanuts.
