Eight years ago I had MXR bass compressor and I never gelled with it. Attack and release where just a bit "vague" if you will and kept me fiddling. So I sold it. Then, last year I bought a Bass fly rig v2, which has 2 knob compressor (compression and level), which I started using and I liked...

Don't know if it's already been mentioned but 7 Nation Army is the definitive bass anthem in opinion (even though it's technically not a bass blablabla). And as a 90s kid I'm obligated to mention Longview by Green Day. I also saw Money by Pink Floyd that could be one as well. I personally...

I know the RD bass (with all the fancy electronics) had a volute, but that was a weird one anyway (though I kinda love it)

Thanks a lot, good call on the wood. Was planning on buying a Squier Affinity, which has a poplar body and a laurel fingerboard, but now I might go with the Classic Vibe which is all maple (and looks a bit nicer to me). Although it's a little more expensive, but I'm not in a rush.

Thanks, I had found some schematics but these are a lot more clear. Though the first one is for 3 wire pickups so I probably wont use that, but even so, the second is exactly what I'm looking for.

Ok, thanks for the input everyone. I'll figure out it myself. Have a nice day.

Even with the different wiring? Cause I feel like that's just as instrumental as the third pickup.

Thanks for the suggestion, however it's 40 euros more and it seems like a lot of knobs in comparison to the Deep Phase, that probably means it's a lot more versatile, but since I'm a phaser noob it might be best for me not to start to enthusiastically.

Thanks, yeah that's the idea, and that's same what I was thinking. However, I don't have much experience with these things so I thought I'd ask the experts before I'd give it a shot. Also I think I would need new pickups to try to match the resistance of the G3 pickups which are: 5.19k for neck...

Thank you. I'm not looking for a perfect, historically accurate remake though, just something that get's me in the ball park that doesn't break the bank and if I like it I'll just refine it over time.

Thanks, but just because it wasn't a massive succes doesn't mean it was a failure in my opinion. And that Gibson haven't updated and re-released it isn't a surprise to me, they'd rather release another batch of Les Pauls instead of being creative and putting out something actually innovative...

Ok, thanks for the input. About the sonic results, what do you think it would achieve? Because it doesn't have to be a hundred percent accurate, I'm definitely not going for historical accuracy, just enough to get a feel for what it would do.

I have this idea and I wanted to run it by you guys and girls to see if I'm not being a complete idiot. So, for some time now I've wanted a Gibson G3 (mostly because of Mike Dirnt), but there's 3 problems: 1. They're kind of expensive (though it could be worse for a vintage bass) 2. They're...

What is a Pbf? I've tried googling, but it didn't tell me. Unless you're talking about a Xerox copy machine...:eyebrow:

Thanks for your input. Going of the likes it seems people agree with that. Since I have no experience with phasers I have no idea whether it would be bad thing for me or not, but it's definitely something to listen for if I do decide to get one.
