Hello! I have been looking for this exact bass but haven't found any information besides what says in the GEWA or other websites. I tried it's brother, the germania Berlin model, and I thought it was a very good instrument with perfect finishes. I was wondering about this one, the Rom version...

Thank you, I will wait for your feedback!

Hi, I have a Markbass little mark tube 800 amp head and I want to get a speaker to combine it with. I'm looking for something light, compact and with enough power to handle my head, so I'm split between the two cabinets mentioned in the title. I'm looking for opinions from someone who has had...

Just out of curiosity, how did this end? Did the new pick ups solve the issue? I have a Precision MIJ from the late 80's that also makes this noise when slapping, although the E string does not touch the poles. I'm considering replacing the pick ups and would be nice to know if your problem was...

First question: I recommend playing one finger per fret, if you keep playing for years you will have a better technique down the road, don't fall for bad habits. Your tendons may hurt now but they will get used to that, just don't hurt yourself by trying too hard early on. Second question...

Since this thread was revived, does someone know of a video or audio clip comparing the Lindy Fralin's normal wound to + 5 %?

Check out Mouse On The Keys, they often have no bass, only two pianos and drum, but it depends on the album. Really good band.

Thank you, that could be it, I'm not used to these types of split coils, my previous was a emg active, completely different.

Apparently you either didn't read the whole text or understand what I said ;) The natural sound of the bass is good, unamplified. The pick ups do sound clear, except when the tone is cut off, which sounds muddy. Thank you for the videos, but I already saw most of them. I was looking more for...

With this bass and pick up im getting a more high mid sound, and I prefer a more low mid round sound. Since the body is ash I want something that can cut through more, while being on that frequency range. Also, when I cut the tone, the bass sounds a bit muddy and nasaly. This afternoon I looked...

Thank you, I can post a picture when I get home.

I have recently purchased a late 80s Fender Precision MIJ 70s RI and it sounds great. The body is very resonant and the pick ups also sound good, very clear. However, I don't like the natural tone of the pick ups very much, they lack a bit of punch for my taste and clearness when the tone is...

Sometimes I don't feel anything, but when I play fast passages the tip of the fingers sometimes touches the fretboard, which feels sticky when I start to get sweaty fingers. At the beginning it actually feels smooth.

Hello, I recently bought a Fender Precision bass with a maple neck and it's the first time I own an instrument in which the finish of the neck/fretboard seriously affects playability due to friction. I removed some of the finish on the back of the neck with a scotch brite pad and it feels much...
