    Victor Wooten breaks his bass neck!

    Probably right, makes much more sense! I guess I jumped to the conclusion because he has said in an interview that he has broken the neck on a few of his basses. my bad :hiding:

    Victor Wooten breaks his bass neck!

    Check it out, I had really had to look twice at this video of Vic doing a solo on stage with SMV. I know I have seen this solo before and not noticed it, but sometime between 5:05 & 5:10 his neck breaks. You can clearly see a fat crack between the 13th and 14th fret! I mean, I've broken strings...

    GK MB115 Issues

    What would you use?

    I think balancing the D4, SM57 along with a DI (I would use the Brick over the amp DI in case it isn't post-preamp) would yield good results. My best recorded sound has come from using a Sanheiser 421 and a DI.Good luck!

    Where do you keep basses?

    I have a room in the house set aside as a practice space with my amps and basses right next to one another, otherwise there is a wall hanger in my bedroom but that hasn't been used since I moved my gear to the practice room.

    Should I get a P or J bass?

    Dude, new Fenders are way too expensive. 3 days of a diligent craigslist hunt turned up a '94 MIM P for $180 and its been my main for about 8 months. But honestly, I've been GASing for a Jazz because I like the way it sits in the mix better. IMO a giging pro should have both sounds in their...

    Fretless String recommendations?

    ^This. Baba Elefante uses D'addaroio rounds on his fretless, and that guy plays an Alain Caron sig. by F bass! In a clinic he was asked about his string choice and said, "Yeah the roundwound strings wear a little on the board, but so do flats! Strings just do that if you play all the time, so...
