  1. quote... Often a dull sound when unplugged is due to a poor quality nut.. really cant see a how a nut can make your tone dull..even if the nut is cut too tight, sorry GW.... there are so many factors that could be at play... some instruments just dont resonate as well as others, depending on the wood used, and the general construction... i agree on the pickups but LF's are expensive... some good ole Fender USA pups are great, or some Wizards.. i have played Squires though that are very resonant and bright.. its mighty hard to tell without playing your bass...in my opinion i wouldnt spend any money until you take it to a tech at a shop who knows basses
  2. even i want this back now... damn that sexy modulus temptress!!!
  3. Why oh why has this not gone??!!
  4. i dont mind a tadpole of fret buzz.. its got to be minimal though.. adds to the growl a little.
  5. My sisters husband has one of these and it BADASS!.. really good P Bass..
  6. ive never noticed any good things from buying a brand new bass.. apart from its new.. but what does that get you? especially for the extra cash you have to pay.. for me used is the way to go.. for most of the time a used bass plays better.. IMO.. why buy a brand new jazz when you can get a nearly new un scratched jazz for half the price.. the beauty of bass chat
  7. Selling my beloved Redeemer Circuit.. i have used this on three jazz basses and its awsome..No colour is added from this circuit.. clarity, punch, and articulation is what this circuit gives you... comes with jack socket.. sorry dont have the original packaging.. very easy to install with no routing.. i fit the battery in the existing cavity.. its a great preamp for someone who doesnt want too many options from there bass EQ.. for me its just a jazz bass tone but way better.. bought from Mark at BD a while ago.. link..

  10. [quote name='Doddy' post='1224583' date='May 8 2011, 10:02 PM']Why not just get a normal Fender Precision with tortoise shell plate and maple 'board instead? It's not like there is anything special about the bass-it's just a stock P-bass.[/quote]exactly..
  11. [quote name='Grand Wazoo' post='1222610' date='May 6 2011, 09:13 PM']What do you mean? weight wise or sound? It sounded great actually, once I swapped the original pickups with vintage stacked Seymour Duncans, the bass sounded better than the real thing.[/quote]sorry.. sound wise.. i have an Audere to put in it also..
  12. nothing much in it then?
  13. im thinking i wont even notice the difference between maybe alder or ash..
  14. Anyone got any experience with basswood bodied jazz basses.. what do you think of the tone weight etc..
  15. comon GP where da pics??
  16. lovely bass.. used to be mine... best made jazz bass ive ever played...
  17. ive heard these are very growly aggressive pickups.. alot of guys swear by them them... [url="http://www.fralinpickups.com/bass.asp"]http://www.fralinpickups.com/bass.asp[/url]
  18. like with most pickups its all in the wind and the gauge for the most part.. your tone apart from other factors is in this recipe
  19. have you considered Nordstrand pickups.. expensive though.. What bass do you have with what pickups? good ole Fender custom shop pickups are great.. those Wizards are great value for a custom wound pickup
  20. whats your main player now Lee?
  21. [quote name='McBass' post='1216788' date='May 1 2011, 07:25 PM']This cat is off the hook...nice sound.Playing off the front pick up with a low action,fonkee asse sh*t! [/quote] Louis mentions him playing off the front pick up...
