Raggy Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 As the title, anyone tried this? Am very close to getting P Retro and wondered if it would be of any benefit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
franzbassist Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 My 70P fretless has a P Retro with La Bella flats. Works really well together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul_5 Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 +1, my blade 5 string has Ernie Ball flats and a J retro - lovely sound(s). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
franzbassist Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 Very quick audio of my P with flats using the P Retro. I recorded this using my new Zoom Q3HD on audio only and mistakenly had it set on auto, which means the levels jump a bit, but hopefully it'll give you an idea.
