Attn: This Is Not For Chris K Or Tryxx

[muthafunkabass]

because chris' kubicki ex-factor is the most perfect and greatest bass ever and so is tryxx's modulus. i luv those things. besides that what do you guys hate the most about ur bass/basses? like do you think the bridge sucks or you wish you could have an active eq? you can also do it about ur amp or effect pedals, if you want. have fun.:thumb:

[Viscous Fridge Magnet]

I hate my Zoom pedal. Damn waste of a Christmas present.

EDIT: only americans will the get the joke i think.

[bryce_the_cat]

I wish my squier wasn't off balance.

[White_Summer]

i wish my warwick fretless had active eq and pups other than that i got nothing to complain about

[tim_commerfordism]

I wish people wouldnt stop complaining.

In that case, I wish that my amp was louder, I wish that my chords didn't keep dissapearing and breaking :angry:

i dont understand why everyone rants and raves about chris' bass.

Wouldn't?

I wish my bass sprouted money.

They have those commercials in Canada too. That kid is so creepy.


I like the way my bass feels, but the pickups suck. The electronics hum, and they don't offer much tonal variety as well. And the setup doesn't stay very well, I have to redo the action and intonation a lot.

[sixner]

i wish my peavey didint buzz

i wish my westone was in 1 piece

i wish my bc rich was currently wired...

all of which, could be done.. but im lazy :upset:
-sixner :lol:

[Jamie]

Right:


Schecter: I wish the fretboard was maple and the neck was wenge

CH 6 string: I wish it had better tuners/stayed in tune better

Ibanez:I wish it didn't have big holes in the scratchplate where I took the incredibly annoying thumbrest out! I wish the wonky pot wasnt wonky, I wish I could be bothered to get it a pro setup!

Ovation acoustic guitar: I wish it had a better action higher up the neck

Silvertone electric guitar: I wish it wasnt black.


:p It might seem like I hate my instruments but I actually love them all! I'm just thinking of ways I could make them superly greater :)

as in the mazda advert? nah we get that horrendously irritating piece of **** of an ad over here too

anyway, i wish my warwick thumb had a slightly thinner neck....but then it wouldnt have its distinctive tone...so really, im pretty chuffed with it

although im thinking of changing out the preamp and pups for either barts or emg

any thoughts?

[muthafunkabass]

me 2:thumb:

[Tryxx]

I'd give my Modulus fanned frets.

I'd probably give my ESP frets back since I have the Warwick, and maybe a mahogony body with EMG pups.

I wish my 8 string actually had 8 strings on it...

Wish the 'Wick has Dimarzio Model J's and a list of other upgrades, plus a Diamondkoted neck.

The Michael Kelly is pretty much perfect for what it is...

Rig:

Epifani UL 2x12 ($1279)
Epifani UL 3x10 ($1349)

That's what I WISH I had.

[Linkinbassist]

I wish i had a reverb rack unit...

[bryce_the_cat]

i dont understand why everyone rants and raves about chris' bass.
123, I'm sure it plays great, BUT it looks very lame & ugly IMO

[Bassinator89]

Wish my schecter was 5 strings, had no buzz on D and G string, wish the stupid schaller strap locks didnt rape the holes on the bass, wish it was candy tangerine finish :-p.

[Sade]

Well, I hate the fact nobody is as good as me at buying Schecter basses.

[Chris K]

i dont understand why everyone rants and raves about chris' bass.

Come play it, listen to some Vail Johnson, then you'll see why people like Kubicki. As for the looks issue, I really dig it. I don't like P basses, but I'll bet there are millions who do.

As for faults with it...

None, it's perfect for me, and once you really get to grips with the modes and the EQ, it's a dream come true.

[Jaded]

I hate that my G string on my Stringray buzzes like crazy when I play hard, but I'm too lazy and cheap to take it in to the shop.

[georgestrings]

Not at all fond of the Pups on my 2nd MIM P bass - and that I don't have any cabs with 10s in them... Pup wise, I have 2 sets of Schaller Pups coming that should be an improvement to both my basses - and hopefully have the same output levels and similar tones... Cab wise, I plan on buying a 410(or two), or an 810... Oh, and I need an AEB, too... Fortunately, that's all I can think of at the moment....

are you never satisfied?

[irishslappop]

my custom is a bit off balance.

[Wintermute]

Ok...

My Vintage Fretless - the Precision pickup is a touch noisy, and gorgeous though the neck is, it marks easily.

Dean DB96 - There's a deadspot high up on the G string, and the electronics are... shot to buggery.

My acoustic - I wish it didn't feel crap when you get past the 15th fret. But it was very cheap.

My Vintage EST96B I can't really complain about. It's been solid as a rock for the last three years.

[Tryxx]

are you never satisfied?

Are you supposed to be? :p

[Left Shoe]

bx1200 = no low end clarity, not loud enough, too easy for my guitarist to change my tone on...*****ing hate that*

yamaha TRBP1= none?

[trumpeter]

yamaha rbx170 - i wish that i could reach higher frets, i have 24 but i cant seem to reach above 20....its upsetting.

[bottlerocket]

Schecter: I wish it had DiMarzio humbuckers in it...that's not Schecter's fault, really, since DiMarzio doesn't make PUPs like that...but still.

Jazz: I need a new bridge and a black pickguard...immediately. :p

Jazz: My pickguard is off and I wisht hat random nickel-sized hole wasn't there.

GK: I wish it didn't hisswhen the treble goes past 5. :upset:

I mod my basses until they're perfect. lawl.

[sanray]

I wish my brice hxb-406 had no active electronics and better pups, also I wish my dean fretless didn't have active electronics other than that my fender is the shiznite and I love my ashdown

[neatobassman]

I wish my Spector's input wasn't ****ed up

I find that hard to believe. I my opinion no bass is perfect, but meh, that's me

As for me, I wish my BTB would be here NOW!

I find no fault in it, other than it can't make my breakfast, but hey.

Now the BTB, there's another bass I own at present.

[Criss Frantic]

I wish Washburn weren't such cheapskates and had put active J's or soapbars in my t25 instead of the boring passive J's.

[Machines]

Yamaha RBX775: I wish it had more versatile EQ and fret inlays.

Spector Q6 Pro: I wish it had Spector inlays and a contoured body.

Vintage V940FL: The pickup blend pot is always cutting out, i'm too lazy to get it sorted.

[blizzard]

My Washburn: I wish the pickups were a little more agressive sounding, I wish that its electronics weren't retardly redundant (who in their right mind makes a bass with volume,volume,balance,tone).

My Cort: I wish i have finished it.

[Az_Holl]

I wish my bass would let me slap :upset:

Maybe its a sign...

Good luck with that, I was trying to buy one and they stopped making them apparently. Unless you're getting it second hand?

Anyways: I wish my Peavey had more treble on its own, that my Vigier's electronics weren't almost shot and that my Carvin had thicker gauge strings and a set up.

Btw, what are "pups"?
