Thanks to all!!! Good advice! You guys are always so cool and helpful. Much appreciated! I've been checkin out some of the darkglass stuff... and some SansAmp stuff too. Pretty cool! Big sound coming from those! Think something that might be the best start. I had emailed Jake sometime ago and...

Greetings.... My apologies if this has been covered, but with 190 pages... it was quite daunting haha! I have a Sacramento that Jake built me pretty early in his endeavor. It's serial number 12...pretty cool! Anyway, I'm primarily a guitar player... not as up on bass gear and such. When we...

Supreme thanks to all who offered thoughts. I'm going to mod the bass for a series/parallel option. I'm told the series thing adds a mountain of muscle. Stay tuned...

Oh.. by the way... the Serek Bass is awesome! Super great build...its an awesome instrument in every way. Very unique, and super playable. Balances perfectly! And Jake Serek is a mad cool guy. Highly recommended a look.

Thanks ton! All three of you! I didn't realize the placement was part of the MM sound. Duh! Makes sense....(told ya, guitar player here!) I've indeed learned that they are a p90 guitar pickup size, so options appear to be extremely limited.. if there are any at all. I'll try to work with...

Hello All! So I just received this marvelous custom-made bass... made by Jake Serek...and it has TV jones thunder tron pickups installed... they sound good, but not really my thing, or what I am used to. I am used to more of the music man style hum buckers... (reverend, Warwick double buck...

I custom ordered a solid body medium scale Sacramento about a month ago. Jake Serek has been super cool to deal with and I'm pretty damn fired up to get this thing in my hands! He's doing the neck to spec. I'll post a review here when I get it and have had a chance to bond with it.

Well once again you bass guys have shown how simply freakin cool you all are!!! Thanks for the insight.... Seems it could be a lot of trouble for no real pay off. I have messed with the EQ.... Three band.. It always has the hyped thing to me. If the Big Al has the same feel... I think may be...

Hey Guys... I'm a guitar player primarily so I get a pass on the dumb question right??!! Hahaha! I love the MM Sterling for its feel... (Small hands etc) but I don't love how it sounds. (Sorry MM lovers) It's a little glassy and "hyped" for my liking. I prefer passive I guess. So is it possible...

I hear ya man! I've wanted one for sometime!

Sounds great! I appreciate that. You can send said info to [email protected] All you guys are awesome on this site. Must be the whole "support" role of bassists. Not exactly what ya get with guitar players....:bassist: So my SS1 is a neck through.. and apparently quite rare in the painted...

Thanks gentleman! I've compared it in the two settings I've always had my guys playing in... Recording and through a GK 2001RB and 4X10 cab. EQ pretty much flat-ish with only a slight boost on the low end. Battery new but strings are an unknown. Plan to change any day. Only had this bass a few...

Yes... I am actually.

Oh yeah... Here's a pic.

Ok I'm a guitar player so I get a pass for the stupid question...HaHa! I recently bought a Warwick Streamer Stage 1 and it FEELS great in my guitar player hands. Small body, narrow neck etc... I hoped it would SOUND a bit more like the Thumb and Corvette that bass players I'd worked with had...
