  1. Thanks for all the help I finally hit the mark w my bass it's finally feeling the way I slap. I slap with phenomenal speed. I needed a string that could be able to react to my quirky quickness (say that five times fast). It's gonna be a while till, I find my next need to fill on my bass. I can relax now no stress worries about strings, bridge, no nothing but plucking, and slapping. Stuff I tried,in past year, BP 100 fishman pickup, K&K Clicky pickup, Weed Wacker ultra lights, Superior deluxe, La Bella super nil, Aquila Sugar slaps, & Changed tail gut to 3/32 Cable. Shadow Rockabilly Preamp, Bass Bone OD, got rid of Bass Bone OD stuck w the Shadow preamp all powered through Older Legacy Acoustic BH200 Head & 410 Cabinet, And now new maple bridge with 1/4 anodized adjusters. A shop in New Jersey is my Go to place Called Gollihur Music.
  2. I build gas power tether cars as my other hobby.my trade was body and fender work on autos for over 30 years.. shouldn't be a bear. Just can't find answer if I want jazz cuts or orchestral cuts or what ever is used for rockabilly slap putting aquila Sugar slaps on when done. J.
  3. Upgrade! Basic crap that was on my bass, new bridge looks awesome lovely grain, looks lot better the one i have on my bass looks like a piece of pine wood..
  4. Hello shaping my new bridge. my question is someone can help me out ok i have an ochestral bridge on right now i have a template for a Jazz Cut, but, i wanna know if anybody, knows about notch placement string, cuts for Rockabilly. Do I want the jazz setup?? I cant find an answer anywhere, about my question. hope i decribed my situation correctly..
  5. I play Rockabilly Slap and I seen an aluminum bridge called a deuce bridge for $375.00 usd has anybody ever seen, one and please tell me why, I don't need one even though, I do so badly. I'm holding on to my pocketbook, for now and bought a solid maple bridge for now just have to cut / shape it feel confident, enough to do myself not, Rocket science I been told..
  6. I just changed my tail gut to a 3/32 mm cable, lot thicker then the stock one. I swear it holds more sustain now.
  7. I have kept the set on for a good two month's or more of all-day- night - playing. I slap the strings like they owe dough! I tried mixing too, I changed my tail gut that gave me a lot more sustain, I noticed on the E that was w/ the superiors, A_D & Innovation, silver slaps E_G. I'm trying to mainly soften the fingerboard, Click to more warmer, less tinky, tanky hollow click my preamp is a shadow RB pro.. J.
  8. I'm sure we all have gone through this tunnel of strings. Superior deluxe, Weed Wackers ultra lights, Innovation silver slaps low tension, and now I'm onto the 140 RB's med light tension driving me crazy. Had to vent somewhere. J.
