I've got $200 stashed away right now.

I can't decide whether to spend it on effects or keep saving for a fretless Fender Jazz.

bottlerocket 12-22-2004 10:20 PM

I played a fretless J today at GC. It had flatwounds and was really smooth. I thought I was in heaven...



...until I saw the fretless Warwick Rockbass with flatwounds...




...THEN I was in heaven. :p

I've got somewheres around 800, plus 250 that my parents owe me.

I'm in the moneys.

The other day I played a fretless Corvette with rounds. Was really nice.

Saitoku 12-22-2004 10:25 PM

I think I'm gonna let it rest on whether I get into a band once the semsmter starts back up or not. If yes, I'll probably need the effects, so I'll get them, if no, I'll just keep saving.

I got some new strings today. I figured I'd try 'em out. D'Addario Nicke Wounds...

They say bright, but the guy from GC said they were bassy.

I think he said that because I told him "I'm looking for bassy strings that aren't flatwounds. Any suggestions?"

If I don't like 'em then whatever...:p

.045, .065, .085, and .105 by the way.

Comments?

Well, are they bassy or bright, then? Or have you put them on yet?

Saitoku 12-22-2004 10:28 PM

I have to pay bills. I'm always broke. :upset:

PaulSimonon 12-22-2004 10:29 PM

Whoo!!!

$500> 4x10 with 9 band eq on pre, and 200w through a power head, and rackmounted effects....

PaulSimonon 12-22-2004 10:31 PM

Aprox. $420 with some of it shipped.

Saitoku 12-22-2004 10:32 PM

Good deal. I think I'd like to eventually get that nice 300w Ashdown MAG300 head and the matching 4x10. That's about $600. Right now all I've got it my Fender Bassman 60w, but that thing is really loud for a 60w, I have to say.

PaulSimonon 12-22-2004 10:34 PM

A better cab would be more costly, but would make it 300, another decent cab would make it 650 watts of output.

I love you Fox.


Lets see... I have 185$. :upset:

bottlerocket 12-22-2004 10:37 PM

What the hell...why are so many n00bs making question threads? :upset:

:evil: I'm in a bad mood again :p

Haven't put 'em on yet...I'll most likely do it tomorrow.

How often do you guys change strings? I boil mine every 2 months and had the same strings since April.

I have had these on for about six month. I try not to boil them more than once before replacing them.

PaulSimonon 12-22-2004 10:42 PM

Maybe I should settle for a 200$ head and 200$ cab?

ScorpSath 12-22-2004 10:43 PM

Haven't been on forever.

PaulSimonon 12-22-2004 10:43 PM

AHHHH!!!
So confused.

bottlerocket 12-22-2004 10:43 PM

^ I wouldn't. I'd save up and get a really good head/cab for about 500 each.

Trust me, it would be worth it in the long run.
