Stag

Knights Of Cydonia (as was tabbing it out for someone else). Good fun to play indeed

no-one has mentioned the new Zender Sig model? That looks v sexy IMO, but the price is a little daft for a 4 string bass. Promised myself a Warwick when I reach 40, so only 10 yrs to go! haha!

[quote name='leschirons' post='717246' date='Jan 18 2010, 10:18 PM']Great playing, but considering his stage attire and presence AND that bass, I find myself strangely sidetracked by the guy in the nappie.[/quote] +1 to the nappy guy.

Cliff Burton's fuzzwah neo-classical stuff for me

The new MIA Standard 4's are amazing. Great build quality and loads of improvements on the last lot (IMO) - the sound of mine has "changed the whole band sound" according to much of the audience! You wont go wrong with one... highly recommend

[quote name='EBS_freak' post='700219' date='Jan 4 2010, 08:53 AM']Like this April 1979 example? Thinking of moving this on if anybody interested...[/quote] Thats an absolute beauty. I think my horn for them is due to a certain Mr C Burton. Would absolutely love it but given I already have one (albeit in the wrong colour) and spent out on a new P-Bass 2 months ago I cannot afford (or justify!) another bass

For me it has to be the old fireglo 4001's, or the classic sunburst & tort PG P bass.

That sound is real nice with the acoustic bass for that album, it complements the sound so well - helps that he plays quite tasteful and melodic lines along with Sean (who is a massively underrated drummer imo)

Particularly on "Nutshell".

how does he get that extremely sweet sound? Its a really lovely bass sound that suits the Unplugged set perfectly.

the SVT610HLF is the best cab ive ever - EVER - owned. Awesomely phat sound, it has wheels and skid rails and a bar on the top so its relatively easy to move around. I think they can chuck out 1200w peak if you really need it! You wont be disappointed with one of those bad boys.

sh1t the bed... thats a stunning bass Beeds.... glad you have found "the one" mate! Truly lovely thing. Id also like to second your experience with V&R. I found them to be very good when I bought my Les Paul bass, including after sales support when there was a little issue with the bridge that needed sorting. well done pal!

[quote name='molan' post='668095' date='Nov 28 2009, 11:06 AM']Wath out for weight issues with later 70's P's. There's some monsters out there![/quote] +1 to this, seriously. There's one in Angel Music that weighs about as much as an aircraft carrier, truly staggeringly heavy.

I must say ive been blown away by mine, after never having owned one since before last week in 15 years+ of playing. Versatile yet simple, effective in almost any situation. Everyone should have one!

CATHEAD

I have a sunburst P... ...oh dear.

Rog! Legend. Went to see him do DSOTM 3 years running, some of the best gigs ive ever seen. Im liking the black + black pickguard combo, very nice Buzz!
