a few reviews here Pete... http://www.harmonycentral.com/products/49945 im there not bad basses at all but they are not in the league of the other TRB 6 basses.. they look lovely though... i would get one but change the preamp...

[quote name='BassMan94' timestamp='1342208813' post='1731864'] I can't wait myself for the new 6er ! I honestly never knew why they used those hair scrunchies untill now Is it me or is that a 'shortcut' to make sure the others don't ring ? [/quote]i personally think the scrunchie is a bit of a cheat.. its not hard to keep every string muted on a 6 string. but its hard if you have fallen into bad habits.... the combination of both hands should be used to keep everthing under control... imo

700 for a Modulus jazz bass... done deal for me

[quote name='groovebuster' timestamp='1342187807' post='1731180'] u feelin it yet? groovin is like sex b4 u cum and ruin it 4 everybody, jizz everywhere. its diggin in and doin it gud. NO WAFFLE. this is 4real. [/quote]are you on drugs..?

i wanted to put a better bridge on my jazz bass, but after a bit thought i was wondering why i really needed to... the tone of my jazz is great with new strings on it.. obviously mine has the bent metal bridge....... i really cant see a 75 jazz with a high mass bridge sounding that much better imo high mass bridges are a marketing ploy.. just like string through bodies etc.

i had a Modulus VJ4 jazz bass... it was totally stunning... quilted maple, full graphite.... the best bass i ever played.... But... the tone was not at all like a jazz bass.. not a bad tone but for me, it had no character.... the fretless VJ may be a different bass because of the fact that its a fretless... i dont know.... an unlined fretless VJ4 Genesis, with an ebony board... now thats a great bass

not at all... i think most BC members would say this is some crackin bass playing.... just not the sort that they love...

Yep.. i know this a very subjective question... but what i think comes close, is a bass line that does everything required, in a balanced way, to compliment the chords/rythm/song but show the players own personality.. this Freddie Washington on his P bass is just groove central imo... i cant imagine someone playing a better line on this track.. subjective of course..

[quote name='RoRi' timestamp='1342026487' post='1728395'] Today, Tomorrow & Forever "Mighty Fine" Great bassline. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gsWt--m1bhs[/media] [/quote]Ro Ri you certainly know your stuff... good call..

this has got to be the stupidest thread to date...

for anyone who loves stuff like Incognito, and other soul jazz funk.... this is the sh*t.... saw them live at the KoKo club in London and these guys were tight.... im a sucker for a good horn section.. and that Paul R can sing. the new album is called Funkhaus if its of any interest..

one of my favorite... Maceo at his best... imo.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rzY6covN-Uk

imo the best OP track they ever recorded... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Puks6UTw1EQ

Mrs P got the funk.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GQp7weHSCz8&list=FLzVUqeF1SLjxa78y2gd03dQ&index=195&feature=plpp_video

K for Khemistry... awsome musicians... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a-Xtk0Ig7L0&list=FLzVUqeF1SLjxa78y2gd03dQ&index=176&feature=plpp_video

yep. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3KeKzwTmaOE&list=FLzVUqeF1SLjxa78y2gd03dQ&index=116&feature=plpp_video

there doesnt seem to be much groove going on in Petes's thread... 80's groove from Dayton like no other... imo... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aqtFeY_wU80&list=FLzVUqeF1SLjxa78y2gd03dQ&index=79&feature=plpp_video

love it.. Lulls basses are fantastic...
