I'm heading out soon to grab a nice interface to record some direct bass tones along with a mic'd cab and in context with some jazz drums and piano tracks I've got laying around.
I've been quite surprised with the 'out of the box' bass sound and so far haven't had to do anything any differently to dial in a good sound. Like a lot of folks on the forum, I've fought for years to get my upright and piezos to play nicely. Not any more! The Clement "Beast" (as Tom livingly called her) seems to have fit the bill - a versatile psuedo-upright. Close enough for jazz as they say.  |

What string type/gauges are you using on this bass?

It's just... insane.... I had another bass in the house and checking it out, and I was quite impressed... until I picked up my Clement. The beautiful and comfortable neck profile, the action... the mwah... it just beats the crap out of any competition there is.
I wonder what string glue is used to glue these strings on to the fingerboard... Tom?

Bartolini B5BC pickups and Mike Pope Flexcore preamp. Restrung with D'Addario half rounds. This is a very versatile instrument. So far I've played jazz, pop, and bluegrass.
Loving it!
