Got to love a bit of Sam Rivers! Yep it's pull offs, just look at his hand.

You'll love it Ash, me and my 635 are rekindled thanks to D'Addario, you just wait until you hear that tone coming through your own amp.

[quote name='GreeneKing' post='377782' date='Jan 12 2009, 03:11 PM']Chicken![/quote] Perhaps, but I need the money first, and I much prefer Steak thanks Peter .

[quote name='Basszilla' post='377772' date='Jan 12 2009, 03:07 PM']I've been thinking of whacking the EMG system into mine as well. I know Josh was looking into it before so perhaps he can chip in. It's not that I don't get on with the tonepump, I use it flat 99% of the time. Some extra control would be handy, in being able to cut as well as boost. Plus you get the extra mid control which would be sweet.[/quote] All I can chip in with is that I'm in the exact same boat and I'll wait until Al updates his before I do mine.

[quote name='EBS_freak' post='377750' date='Jan 12 2009, 02:50 PM']Teh Internets hype. Got to love it.[/quote] I love it as much as the thought of french kissing Ricky Gervais during a Christian Worhship Service in Alabama, all whilst wearing a tight leather gimp suit.

[quote name='EBS_freak' post='377575' date='Jan 12 2009, 12:37 PM']Probably. One man's tone is another's sh*t heap so it's all subjective I guess.[/quote] Exactly, but when ones tone is backed by a mountain of hype and it falls short of the mark by a long way, you suddently become the enemy. Go figure.

[quote name='EBS_freak' post='377569' date='Jan 12 2009, 12:28 PM']I'm not going to even start on the science of pickups... because some know it all will probably argue blue that I am wrong...[/quote] Thats because you are....apparently .

[quote name='EBS_freak' post='377486' date='Jan 12 2009, 11:16 AM']Nordstrand single coils.[/quote] Nordstrand Big Singles and Fat Stacks also. They are far from the "Super Jazz" Bass tone they claim to be.

[quote name='joe_bass' post='375927' date='Jan 10 2009, 09:24 AM']That sucks!! I thought it was going to be a replica of the bass he is using in my avatar?[/quote] Exactly man. It looks like they've been flirting with Ritters a little too much. I'll bet the Zender collective on the Warwick forum are now going to be huffing and puffing for a good while to come.

The Stu Zender Sig is a massive dissapointment.

Ok that's just stupid fast.

[quote name='Jase' post='373358' date='Jan 7 2009, 06:47 PM']All this super low frequency.....it's for whales and things, why any bass player would want to bury themselves further into the lower register is beyond me.[/quote] Some players prefer to have a much more prominent sonic footprint, and unfortunatley the 4 string can only offer so much. Is it such a crime to want more than 4 strings?

Nothing wrong with that at all man, I'm guilty for gawping at all the Truth kits on the Pearl Drummers Forum. Welcome man !

I've been favouring 4's alot recently, and my latest acquisition has reinforced the fact that I am more confident on 4's full stop. Though, I compensate by tuning a full step for more growl and those few extra lower notes, but I do still have a hankering for a good 5 string though. The only 5's I know that sound different to it's 4 are Thumb NT's, and that's mainly down to the pick up placement.

Another Sadowsky, and quite a few Laklands.
