Chaos Daveo Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 (edited) Hello all, I have a Ltd rb that I got a while back the idea was for it to be a high standard backup to my Sandberg for all things live and because changing tuning mid set is a pain. Long story short this bass became my main and really surpassed my expectations and was wondering how many of you have stumbled on something similar. I have to many to choose from now and really feel like a kid n a sweet shop choosing which one to play...happy times.

Rich Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 My Shuker 5 doesn't see a whole lot of gig action any more since I got my Sire V7. The low-fi sound of the Sire seems to suit live work better. The Shuke is the better quality bass by a hundred country miles and is still my go-to recording bass.

FinnDave Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 I have two Precisions and two Jazz basses, they are all my main gigging bass at different times. Sometimes I'll play nothing but the P basses for months on end, then I'll suddenly switch and play only the Js. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaos Daveo Posted August 10, 2016 Author Share Posted August 10, 2016 It's interesting that we can go between basses and styles as we progress. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheddatom Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 I bought a Brice 6 string bass from an ebay shop in the states about 15 years ago. It was my main bass for a couple of years until I could afford nicer basses. I have 2 more very nice 6 strings now, but I have to say, the Brice is still fantastic, even the low B. I think I paid about £150!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] I wouldn't go so far as to claim that my bass paying 'progresses'. More just sort of continues, on and on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaos Daveo Posted August 10, 2016 Author Share Posted August 10, 2016 I can relate maybe progress was the wrong word, but playing is practising and evolving as my guitar teacher would say.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silverfoxnik Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 I bought a cheap Yamaha BB300 on here about 18 months ago and used it as main bass for about 9 months. In that time, it saw more rehearsal and gigging action than my vintage BC Rich, my Roscoe Beck 5 string and a few of my other more expensive and so called high end basses. I recently had it set up properly and it plays and sounds even better now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
