Bernadette by the Four Topps has allways been a fun one to play.

oh right. thats a bit odd but cheers for clearing that up

oh right can it? the back of it says minimum 4ohms

hi guys, i have a Tc electronic RH450 amp head which i am currently using with the RS410 cabinet. the head can handle anything above 4 ohms and the rs410 is 8 ohms. no problem there. im looking to add my other cabinet as well ( a custom made 4x12 cabinet) which is 4 ohms. would this be ok to run? ive never been to sure on ohm ratings.

ok sweet cheers for the help

Hi guys, recently ive been thinking about replacing the neck pickup in my Jaguar bass ( currently a jazz style Pup) and putting a P bass style one in. is there anything i should know before doing it? especially as there is a active eq on the top horn which maybe a problem. any input would be appreciated ! even if its with recommended P/j pickup configs (going for a vintage pop sound) this is myy band so this is style im going for . http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LuMCEhZ4eIw

anyone got some sheet music for classica bowed songs like this? would love to try and learn some of this on double bass or any suggestions of videos i should check out? im pretty new to the classical world but i love a good bowed double bass ;]

oh really? thats a ball ache. its been this way for maybe 4 months or more.. just finally getting around to sorting it. is there nothing i can fill it with? the bass is only about 450 quid anyway so i would rather avoid giving it to a luthier

hi there, i have recently discovered a crack in the headstock of my EUB... and i was hoping that the people of bass chat could help me out. the only time i can think this could have happened, is when the bag for the double bass snapped and caused it to hit the floor but anyway anyone know of anything to put in there to prevent it getting worse? the bass plays fine but sometimes when it tune the wood makes a horrible noise that gets picked up by my amp..... here are some photos [attachment=107067:IMAG0477.jpg] [attachment=107068:IMAG0479.jpg] [attachment=107069:IMAG0480.jpg] [attachment=107070:IMAG0478.jpg]

[quote name='StevieD_FenderP2009' timestamp='1335922470' post='1638196'] I've played both and I preferred the jap Fender 70's model. Much more punch, really clear sounding and the neck was beautiful to play. No problems with the grounding or bridge on it either (which for me to say that about a Fender BBOT is rare) The american special one felt like it had been built in a bit of a hurry if you know what I mean? The pickups weren't great, the finish wasn't great and the neck didn't feel too nice. I really did prefer the jap 70's model. Go for that, it's a much wiser investment [/quote] thanks mate thats really helped!

yeah i was instantly drawn to the japanese one ( from what websites ive seen the bass on it's said jap each time) as i prefer the looks of it, unfortunately i cannot try the bass's as i live in the middle of no where in england and a 300 mile drive would be required... and then theres the hunt for finding both bass' ... i think i will have to go with the jap and stick a badass 2 on there so the hype around american fenders doesn't always make them better.

Hi yall ! [font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif][size=5]as the title suggests, im a bit torn between a couple of fender p bass's.[/size][/font] [font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif][size=5]im spending around 800 ish on one, and ive found [/size][/font] [font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif][size=5]the Fender 70's precision (japanese)[/size][/font] [font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif][size=5]( [url="http://www.dv247.com/guitars/fender-70s-precision-bass-guitar-olympic-white--88570"]http://www.dv247.com...ic-white--88570[/url] )[/size][/font] [font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif][size=5]and [/size][/font] [b] [font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif][size=5]Fender American Special Precision Bass [/size][/font][/b] [font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif][size=5][url="http://www.dv247.com/guitars/fender-american-special-precision-bass-guitar-olympic-white--82145"]http://www.dv247.com...ic-white--82145[/url][/size][/font] [font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif][size=5]Any opinions?[/size][/font][font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif][size=5]I love the look of the 70's p bass and love the lighter coloured neck, but it being a jap bass (like my jaguar) i can imagine it needing more work (bridge and grounding ) [/size][/font]

Hi guys im looking to mic up my bass amp for home studio use as i heard it sounds better for distorted tones compared to DI. set up is Jaguar bass > pedalboard > tc electronic RH450 > 4x12 cab > "MIC" > Apogee ONE > Macbook Pro Any Ideas? price range kinda up to 150 but might go over

does anyone have the sheet music for the bass line of Ain't no mountain high enough? preferably free ;]

Im a bit worried actually when I was watching British Bakeoff on Tuesday when ever I saw a really good cake - especially from the insufferable red shirted girl - all I wanted to do was kick it over.[/quote] haha even i was ammused :] not bothered still managed a profit i actually bought for 100... cant blame me for trying to make pennies

[quote name='dan2112' post='1340261' date='Aug 15 2011, 03:41 AM']Have you tried pickguardian? [url="http://www.pickguardian.com/pickguardian/Fender.html"]http://www.pickguardian.com/pickguardian/Fender.html[/url] Do you mean the gold anodized like on the 50's precisions?[/quote] yeah thats what i fell in love with :]

i would advise people not to go for a swollen pickle. allthough i found THE nicest fuzz tone on it if you make any slight adjustment to the amp or bass it seems to drastically change the charectoristics of the pedal =/ its really weird i spoke to Brian Cook of Russian Circles about why he didnt use his any more and he said exactly the same. a good pedal if you use it in the studio i guess... not for live application IMO

anyone know of where i can get hold of a replacement pickguard for a fender jaguar? i cant see that fender stock them so possibly a custom job... wouldnt mind a gold 1 actually :]

Im Rob, 19 been playing seriously for about 4 years now my set up at the moment is ... My beloved Fender Jaguar modded with badass II Bridge, fender noiseless pickups (pictured are Seymour quarter pounders that i didnt get on with ) and properly shielded inside [attachment=85857:251665_2...253523_n.jpg] My TC Electronic RH450 Head with custom 4x12 cabinet loaded with four BNIB CELESTION BN12-300S, and a fender rumble 15 when my parents get annoyed with the noise [attachment=85858:IMAG0362.jpg] My EUB bass and bow [attachment=85859:IMAG0363.jpg] And a few pedals which i change more often than my underwear Getting rid of the muff for a Fulltone OCD, getting a Boss oc-2 and a BBE sonic Maximizer with my next pay packet [attachment=85861:IMAG0365.jpg] And here in this picture you can see my previous head...
