charic Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 (edited) Fairly sure it's 5 or 1, doesn't sound much like a P to me. Dunno why edit to say like the track! Edited February 3, 2012 by charic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charic Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 Also thinking it's a pick rather than fingers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OliverBlackman Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 its definitely pick. I give up, all picked basses sound the same to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badass Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 #4 with a pick. Nice track Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conan Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 No idea! To me there is little difference between a P-bass and a J-bass on the neck pickup.... No idea what a Fernandes would sound like. The bass is also a bit low in the mix to make out clearly. Good track though! If I were to guess I would say it was one of the Js.... er, the Squier CV???

Protium Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 Don't think it's a J, so my guess is #4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Horton Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 I vote for number 4 with a pick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bilbo Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 It's definately a bass....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bear-foot-bass Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 Dunno. Just want to say I love the track, and you have a good mix of all the instruments and voice. IMHO I love it. As to the question, def a pick. Bass no 1? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simon1964 Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 I have no idea what the Fernandes is! I would have guessed the Precision, but I'm thinking its a trick question so I'll opt for the Squier. Great track BTW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stu_g Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 squier classic vibe jazz? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xilddx Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 That's the P bass played with fingers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichZbaraski Posted February 4, 2012 Author Share Posted February 4, 2012 Thanks for the complements. I'll help you out a little: its played with a pick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Killerfridge Posted February 4, 2012 Share Posted February 4, 2012 I'm going to say Squire Classic Vibe Jazz - only because it sounds very similar to one of the Squires that I have heard other people play recently. And it is a great sound! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiOgon Posted February 4, 2012 Share Posted February 4, 2012 TBH I really liked the track, playing my 51P along with - sounded fine to me, so I'll go #4 P with a pick Good stuff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OliverBlackman Posted February 4, 2012 Share Posted February 4, 2012 we've already established its with a pick. I want a better clue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4 Strings Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 I can't tell the difference between basses with cellulose or any other type of paint so how am I supposed to tell different makes? Seriously, I honestly can't tell a jazz on the neck from a Precision, but I would say this is different enough from what I would expect from a Precision that I would say it isn't no. 3. In the quiet bit it has an un-fenderish characteristic so if I had to say one its no. 5. Yes, impressive sounding track too. Was this really a competition (and an excellent one at that, I'd like to see more of these) or are you showing off a track with which you are justifiably proud?

xgsjx Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 Is it a trick question & the answer is none of them, it's a Les Paul with an octaver? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichZbaraski Posted February 5, 2012 Author Share Posted February 5, 2012 IT WAS #1, THE MEXICAN FENDER JAZZ BASS ALL ALONG!!!! I can do more in the future if you'd really like? Honestly? It was half and half. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichZbaraski Posted February 5, 2012 Author Share Posted February 5, 2012 Both pickups were on, and the modifications were a gotoh bridge and some better wiring, so only subtle stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4 Strings Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 That's brilliant, now we know what a Jazz on both pickups sounds like, thanks, Rich. Any other offers of tracks gratefully received, anyone else want post some too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xgsjx Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 Nice track, very FNM sounding (which is a good thing). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
