Yeah, the bass is wicked, but it just doesnt sound as beefy as my warwick. the sound i go for that has loads of attack and a defined bass. Similar to lamb of gods new album. I use rotosound strings 50 70 90 110.

hey, i just bought an 80's aria sb1000 and im thinking about upgrading the pickup. thinking about an emg mmcs. Dont really know anything about pickups as ive always just used the stok pikups in the past. Any ideas? I play mostly metal, with a pick through a Galien Kruger rb1001. Should i mabey be thinking about changing the pre amp aswell? Cheers

One of those things to add to your records to get people guessing like The Boxer's backwards gunshot sound ... One or two of my watches "click" through the amp when they are close to my pickups too This sounds like a whole new thread ....[/quote] Band called sylosis use it at the beginning of their track Teras Its on their myspace site if you want to have a listen! Think its from the very end of the rotations, the really bassy frequencies, Kinda sounds like a world war 2 fighter plane or something!

I know this is a old thread but if you have a powerball, get it going and hold it over the pickup on you bass. It makes an amazing sub-drop sound! Probably not a great idea to do it at high volume caus i guess is could damage you speakers!
