BassBus Posted December 11, 2015 Share Posted December 11, 2015 Never been a fan of P basses but the middle two make up for that in every way known to man. Very beautiful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PJS Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 Lovely basses. What sort of tones does the bridge pickup produce on the Elite? I've always been curious but have never tried one with that pickup arrangement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Elite bridge pick up on its own is super bright and trebly. Way too much and totally useless in the realm of P bass tone. However a little bit of it blended with the neck pick up gives the bass a sheen and presence and really compliments the classic tones available from the neck pickup. It adds brightness, but in a different way to the tone pot. [quote name='Jackemmings' timestamp='1457109975' post='2995499'] Such a lovely Rob Allen. [/quote] It is. And has a tone that matches I have a lot of basses and play different styles of music. This is the one bass to rule them all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially the status [/quote] I feel the opposite, all lovely, but I'm less fond of the Status. Horses for courses..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
