BigJHW Posted November 11, 2022 Share Posted November 11, 2022 For the 5 mins that i've played it through the cheap o Thomann practice amp i have at home - all i can say is WOW Get to put it to the real test tomorrow at the studio though the Barefaced 212T and Eich powerhouse T-900 Cant wait !!!

BigJHW Posted November 14, 2022 Author Share Posted November 14, 2022 Ok, got it to the studio Saturday evening to push it through the T-900 and BF 212T and all i can say is WOW i've never had to wind Treble off on a bass head before but this thing sure has some top end to it - don't get me wrong it's kinda awesome i was just shocked at the topendyness of the passive bass. 1/3 of the tone rolled off and treble cut 25% on the bass head and WOW this thing sings and growls like a proper bass should. it's in dire need of a setup as i am getting fret buzz on the A/D/G strings but the setup outta the shop is super low and that's not ideal for my sausagefinger style of playing. Regardless i'm gonna be gigging it at our next gig why haven't i had a BB bass in my life before now !!! ah well lessons have been learnt 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Misdee Posted November 14, 2022 Share Posted November 14, 2022 Lovely basses with a great sound for any genre of music, modern or retro. The passive pickups on these basses sound so huge they put a lot of active basses to shame. Looks good in black,too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
