Yeah, like Carl Thompson, Status, Spector, schecter... *too lazy to think of better brands*


Go with a rogue! :p

Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

Schecter is a great brand lol also i don't really care... i just want a bass :p also im planning on getting a Ibanez GRS200 shortly after my first bass.... if its crappy

Psh. I recommended him a GSR200 as a starter bass. Any raise on that? Best I could think of.

Seconds this...

I REALLY liked a Firstact.

Yes, the Walmart brand. It had amazing fret dressing and good action. Seriously, the fret dressing absolutely pwned. It was astonishing. It would suffice for a beginning bass.

Schecters do truly rule! My next bass is going to be a shecter

Got a pic of the Walmart bass?


How funny would it be if Walmart started selling Wals? :lol:


or Wal copies...

DON'T GET A GSR AS A SECOND BASS. That be my advice.


Seriously, look up a Peavey T-40 on Ebay. They're cheap, made in the US, and tonally kick everything's ***.

I'm still eyeing up the Conklin GT4 as my next bass.

I'd kill for a Conklin GT7

No pics, but the fretting job was amazing... I'm serious, it's better than a lot of high end basses. Probably sounds like crap though...

I'm off anyway lads :wave:

I don't think I want a 7 string, I'd just like to have a good 4 string for now; I've got a good 6 already.

Bye chris, im off as well.... my fellow bassist oh my i can't believe i just said that lol

I really can't see what my band are going to say and how i took the piss out my bassist :p oh dear :upset:

Thx for all you're help guys!

HI everyone again.




:amaze:

good evening Luke, how you doing?

[QUOTE=Luke19Boarder]HI everyone again.




:amaze:[/QUOTE]
hi, people, guess what, im gettin me a jazz bass this weekend :D

:wave: hey Luke, how goes it?

actually, it'a going pretty well. and you guys?




:amaze:

I've suddenly cured my bass GAS, so well enough.

Yeah i'm awesome thanks Luke :thumb:

How'd you manage that Andrew?

No idea. I guess it hit me when I was trying to match the tones of my T-40 with a Lakland Darryl Jones, and I couldn't find any that I liked on such a nice bass. It may have also happened when I realized I hate all B strings. I've never played a B firm enough for me, and thus my 6er GAS died.

hey guys

last jazz band show at my current school 2night

:wave:

back from bass lesson

Ah makes sense, but all B strings are gonna be floppy a little it's just a fact of life really... Try making your own?

hey left what is up

had a great bass lesson, i now am confident that i can play the solo from astral traveler for berklee

[QUOTE=neal_672]Ah makes sense, but all B strings are gonna be floppy a little it's just a fact of life really... Try making your own?[/QUOTE]
That's depressing. All I ask for is a B without the dropoff in tension! From my experiences, it doesn't exist...

My Brice 6er had a great B string! Wasnt too floppy, but it wasnt un-naturally tight for a B string. I loved it :(

Was there a dropoff in tension from the E to the B? I still don't believe that there is a B string that I could use, with the exception of a Knuckler or a Dingwall.

so ... i'm pretty bored. any suggestions?
