Who Would Endorse You?

Sign in to disble this ad
There's a lot of "what-if" threads on here that I find pretty fun to be a part of. Endorsement is definitely something we'd all enjoy having as a perk to our musical career, but have you ever given serious thought to who it would be when you get right down to it? So, who would it be?

Guidelines:

You get two bass manufacturer endorsements
You get one amp and one cab manufacturer endorsement (can be different companies or same)
I know we have some FX lovers in here, so you guys get three effects manufacturer endorsements
You get one string manufacturer endorsement
You get two accessory freebies on whatever you want to use (picks, fancy pots, hardware like bridges or tuners, etc)

State which ones you'd want, and what product of theirs you would use primarily. Have fun with it!



**For people already endorsed - You can state what you currently have, what you'd rather have, or just do like us and state what you want!

YAY ...make believe!

I'm in.....

FENDER and EBMM basses

AMPEG amps and cabs

MXR, TECH21, and MORLEY effects and pedals

D'ADDARIO strings

DUNLOP and PLANET WAVES accessories

Primaraly I would want to use Fender 5 string P basses, They just work for me. I would also want a MM5 or two

I would love 3 rigs from AMPEG, a combo, a 410 rig, and a full fridge810/SVT.

I like MXR pedals, and Sansamps are cool.

I'm playing DR strings now, but I wouldn't pass up a deal from D'addrio

Dunlop makes a ton of accessories so I think that would be a good choice, and I like Planet waves stuff too.

Hmm...
Bass: MTD (Kingston Artist 5-string) And EBMM (5-string Ray)
Amp: Markbass (both head and cab, probably an 800 tube head and whatever cabs suited the venue)
Effects: Boss (loopers, tuners) EHX (synths) and Digithech Hardwires (everything else).
Strings: D'Addario
Freebies: Piezo bridges on everything, courtesy of Graptech, and a Sansamp unit from Tech 21.
That should keep me set for shows and whatnot.

Fender for basses and amps (they own SWR so I get to one-stop-shop).

TI for strings.

Needlessly expensive strap maker for straps.

Who Would Endorse You?

You seem to be confused about who does the endorsing.
