Like the shape of the pickguard, unique and cool!!

PC audio out via 1/8" trs to my JDS Labs Atom Powers any of my headphones nicely (Beyer, HiFiMan, Grado, AKG). Friend has a Schiit headphone amp that sounds great too, and the build quality of the Schiit is a bit more robust in terms of the chassis By 'plug in' do you mean portable (as in...

Just trying to find a gem in the coal. I actually like the original post songs above, it's the processing that I find distasteful... Being a 'target audience' is almost completely gone for me and my peers....

@ 58 this month, trying to let go of aggravation... but it is always in my face - at work: favoritism, ass kissing, back stabbing. It's not what you know, it's who you know. It's not what you do, it's who you know. I hate it - on the road: drivers are aggressive, distracted, tailgate, and...

Awesome job .... the difference in character of the mics is absolutely wild. And... yes, I listened on a real headphone rig!!! headphone amp - JDS Atom phones - HiFiMan Sundara

Yes, I am. Next, we will discuss the p bass and later the SVT fridge.

In general terms, I like somewhat older music and recording techniques and playback formats. However, I try to find something with modern music,. I hear a trend in recorded music referred to as brick walling. The music is compressed and topped out... to the point, that the dynamics of...

Almost Monday - "Can't Slow Down" (speakers or headphones)

I had the great fortune to play at a local food and music festival, years ago. The provided backline was an SVT CL (all tube head) and the 810. It sounded amazing to me.... $1000 to replace all 8 drivers? That is a chunk of money all at once. Park the cabinet. Buy one or two each...

@DWBass As an owner of the DJ5 and fan of the 55-02 sound, there is something about the 55-01 sound that I enjoyed years ago ... can't find it.... Can you link a clip of the 55-01 that really defines the 01 sound? I am going crazy on utoob trying to find the 01 sound

What was the title of this thread? Oh, that. Yet we have slipped into minutiae about string types and famous players and ad nauseam.... :rolleyes::rolleyes: How about we encourage the dude, give solid advice, and celebrate his interest instead of being talkbass? Oops, here we are....

FWIW The Lakland Skyline DJ5 that I bought from Doc Cheese... it is an absolute gem!! Have zero personal experience with Sadowsky, but I have heard enough examples, to know that there is something special about the way they sound...

Don't dabble, 'I think I'll try it' Play it exclusively for an extended period of time. Park your fretted bass(es). It's the way to get good

Pablo Cruise "When Love is at your Door" should have been a radio hit. Digging this... The bass is like a warm chocolate brownie, so tasty and chewy. Speakers or headphones

Very nice, Doc!!! I listened on my headphone rig... The Hammond sound is so tasty
