Arrives Christmas Eve.


I opened it, and played it until today. haha














This thread should prove why I'm a musician, and not a photographer.

Nice, didn't you buy this one off of TB?

I had my eye on it for a little bit, but didn't really want to lay down the dough.

How was the transition from 4 to 7?

(and shouldn't this be in Basses )

Or can you just not ever get away from OT

Considering this was off-topic, I was really expecting this to be about a fish.

Oh well, nice bass!

Transition hasn't been too bad at all. I'm in a band, so I get to practice while playing.
I started off with all Major scales and all maj 7th arpeggios, in all keys.

Starting from the low C, It's possible for 6 octaves with Pinch Harmonics! SIX!!

Proper class, those Conklins. I've always wanted one, but I don't think I'd play it as much as my 6.

I got the GTBD-7 for Xmas. LOVE IT. I'll never play any of my old basses ever again lol.

I only made the jump for 6 to 7, though. 4 to 7?! that's gotta be hard.

Mark is in OT so much that he probably doesn't even know that a bass forum exists.

I really really want a 7 string, but the only ones I can afford (Conklin, really) are in too tight spacing for me to be comfy.

It really isn't that hard to get used to. Just play a bunch and you will get used to it, might feel weird for a bit, but eventually you will be fine.

I had an SR506 (same string spacing) for over a year. At first I was okay, but when I went back to playing some 4's I realized how much more fluid it seemed with that wide 19mm spacing.
