It's the same deal for the higher end squier guitars. They look sound and play a lot better than the MIM fender standards. I sold a mex standard tele to buy the squier tele custom 2, looks awesome and plays sweet. Happynesswas had. I've been thinking of getting the VMP with that humbucker.

Dunlop USA nylon .60mm, but they wear down so fast, that's considered light for guitar!! But for me it's flexibilty and lightness improves my speed slightly. Plus if I use anything heavy I notice a stronger audible difference.

I know there are loads that do but to me its to aggressive. I guess its ideal for rock though.[/quote] yeah I'm going to see about some vintage fender pups for both positions if i can't shift it.

I'm sure the jag baritone is the same intrument as the bass VI, except new.

I've got the original power jazz bass special model, Without the painted neck, it's stupid fast, and those extra frets make the difference in playing lead bass. I dunno if the duff signature has ghe same number of frets. Plus this has the active pre amp. Quarter pounder in the P and a Duncan designed jazz pick up. It's great if you want to be thumped, not for me though. Love a trade for a ray 34 , but that won't happen haha.

First time I bothered with slapping was learning 'ban the tube top' by Reel Big Fish, the slap part in the chorus was easy enough for me to do, thenjust went from there.

3 guitars and a drummer. You'll find your self struggle with a 2x10 combo. The orange bass terror is a beast, but you'll have to add another few hundred quid to your budget to get a decent enough cab to use all that wattage. Ashdown little giant is a small powerhouse and maybe £300 used and you couldpick up a used awesome cab from the for sale section for the same monies. Although the downside is you won't get the full wattage with one cab.

Yup OTB through a 15. Thick and creamy.

When the 1000w release??? In my mind you would only need the 1000 watts if the cabs you used are rated high. I'm only using mine with a single 15, my gain at 10 o clck and the volume as needed. On my last gig it was drowning out a miced up drumkit, PA with 4 1x12s and 2 50watt 2x10 combos. The achievable volume witha good cab is rediculous with it. You can alway take it back and thenget the other one if needs be. I have a quick question though. Obviously I'm using it in 8ohm mode with my 8 ohm cab to get 500 watts. But if I was finding it too loud could I use it in 4ohm mode to down rate it? I know it sounds stupid but I'm sure so done will find that info useful.

I'll plus one to the epiphone t-bird pro V, strung with rotosounds drop zones, modern and low. Easy.

That's sounds strange. Are you pulling off then a bend? Or bending the string then pulling off? Or bending the string then doing pull off while the string is bent? The first 2, maybe easyier with practice, lower action higher string guages. The last maybe bending the string down toward the floor, would be easyier. Other wise bends pull offs and hammer ons are all essential techniques for me.

Where to buy? I've not seen these before. Edit : oh right I'm a dumbass! I'll have to pick some up next time I need some booze.

It shouldn't cause no sound with just half the speakers installed, I had a combo where one of the speakers became disconnected, the tweeter and other speaker worked fine.

I'd take my compact and OTB for anyone wanting to try before they buy. The grosvenor is only a 10 minute drive away.

I hope my white basses don't yellow like that, my parents smoke more in a week thanwhat the iclandic volcano has, no fly zone round here.

My fender power jazz special is basically a P bass with a jazz in the bridge it's difinatly got the P bass tone. Would love some one to generous and trade for a White/buttercream EBMM of any type. Or a white MIJ jazz. P bass isn't my cuppa. Duff mckagens signature model is based off it, if that helps. It's got quarter pounder P pickup and a Duncan design for the J.

Are they 2 1x12 cabs. Looks menacing though. Fire it up and see what it sounds like please.

[quote name='Bigwan' post='813647' date='Apr 21 2010, 12:13 PM']The orange looks so cute though... pity it wasn't gigbag sized.[/quote] it comes in it's own carry bag, and wieghs nothing. you could probably get an old Motown thing going on with it with the gain set low, but then tone becomes less defined. Then my guess would be to suit the thing with a good 15", BF compact? The OTB is a nice amp. It's plug and play all the way, the TC classic is a nice head too, I was thinking of getting one before I brought the svt then brought the orange.

I had a set on my power jazz, thickened out the sound and mellowed it out. I did like it. Only the E string open would worbble for no reason, it was horrible no matter what I did it just would uncontrollably worbble. If it wasn't so obvious inwould have kept them on. I won't again though.

For me, mid boost or flat with my jaguar. Plus I think i know when to let loose and riff and when to hold back and strum the crap out of the root notes. As to gear, I love my jag, how it sounds deep and growling and when flat it sits nicely, with a small mid boost and a treble cut, I've found it to be a lot more defined without it being trebly. Although I'm trying my power jazz with my new head Thursday to see if I can gig with that, and achieve the same result.

I'm interested, would definately turn up if work commitments aloud.

You will probably find alot of people suggesting the squier CV or VM jazz or precisions. Or atleast a Mexican fender, if new touches the higher region of your budget. Warwicks arnt my cup of tea. Although there is a corvette with a natural wood finish and no pick guard. Available in 4, 5 and 6 sting. I do t know price or resell price though. I find it ugly. Best thing to do is take her to a shop that has a good selection, try em all out. See what feels best.
