    1. Delano pickups 

    2. Gotoh highmass bridge

    3. Schaller tuners

    4. A new loom from our very own @KiOgon incredibly skilled fabricator . The best Jack location click you will ever hear!!

    The colour is just beautiful. A lovely metallic sparkle. 
    The neck has sone lacquer cracking but really nothing to speak of.

  3. Any where you like really. Most are set on a single pole with sub then speaker on top. The sound from a sub is omnidirectional. The frequencies are generally below 200HZ.  So it’s an almost 360 degree sound. Not to close to walls and corners can some times make them sound louder. There are calculations about distance to walls and radiation and Phasing issues  however generally anywhere. Depends on the venue.

    Yeah, I'm sure @KingPrawn is chuffed to bits with the varied but comprehensive and useful answers this thread has yielded ...

    Can you imagine a new member eagerly checking out a thread on tone settings to achieve the ultimate sound. Reading through the thread as the real life madness unfolds. This is the colony that are the members of BC.

  5. Hello all. 
    I know there are a huge amount of factors that impact on the final tone of any bass tone. 
    Bass, amp.cab,player, finger, pick, strings, effects, studio/live, pickups, preamp, passive , active, new world vs old etc etc  

    Putting all those nuances to the side for the purpose of this thread. How do you get a basic tone for:

    Rock

    Funk

    Jazz

    slap

    punk

    motown 

    so regardless of bass type  what would you advise a new player who wanted to achieve a good baseline tone for each  what are the EQ rules  ?

     

  6. Hello All.

    So, 3 days in and....

    Ease of use - Super easy. I was pretty confident in creating patches and navigating within 20 odd minutes of getting it set up. Probably haven't found all the features yet but I would be happy using this live today if I had a gig (Ha!). The editing software is particularly useful makes patch navigation and set up even easier. 

    Sound - So, this was ultimately to replace a Zoom G3n and potentially and upgrade for by B3n, so I'll mostly comparing to these 2 units. I also liked the idea of one unit for both applications. The G3n was particularly underwhelming for recording and for live sounds (IMHO). The B3n is perfect for my live use and I found marginally better for recording. The Line 6 is definitely a cut above sound wise over both Zoom units. It blows the G3n out the water on all fronts. For bass, the amp and cab sims sound good direct into a DAW and the effects are definitely of a higher quality then the Zoom. The higher DSP does mean more chain options, however if you like to have infinite tweaking options, it may not be  for you due to the pre-assigned blocks. Personally, 6 FX in a chain is more than enough even if one is pre-designated to an EQ type. I think where this unit will really start to shine is when you get into the world of Impulse Responses. 

    Practical usability - Its much bigger than the Zoom units, however you can access 4 patches per bank versus the Zoom's 3. Also, the snapshot feature means each patch can be set up in 4 different ways and accessed easily. So in effect, each bank could be of 16 patches. That's plenty for live use I think! I've pretty much ignored the expression pedal so far, so the value of that is yet to prove itself. The stomp mode on this is also much easier and quicker to use then on the Zoom.

    I'm currently trying to get my head around IR's. I'll report back once I delve into that black hole.

    Keep it coming im intrested!
