Bumping again.

I'm used to an imageboard where threads usually die in an hour, if not sooner. My apologies.

Bump?

Well, I haven't got a lot of experience with strings. Not sure what my bass came with, but I've replaced them once with Fender P Bass strings. Think the E was .120 ga. (Snapped it somehow playing Fight Fire with Fire, don't ask me how, I'm not sure myself) Got the original E back on, and three...

To quote from my thread on the main Bass guitar page: I'm planning on building a bass on Warmoth, (or somewhere cheaper, if you guys have any suggestions) and I'm looking for a particular tone. I want something that's Nice, bright, and clean in the upper tones. Like, While my Guitar Gently...

Thanks, Ray. I'm still new here. Do you guys mind if I leave this thread open for suggestions in general for strings, pedals, and the rest?

So, Advice? I'm looking at ASB-5s versus ASB-BO-5s. Black outs claim they have a clean High end, where as ASB's claim they're more natural. Is there anyone who's used both and can elaborate on here?

I've already looked into some stuff. The Iceman body has room for three Soapbars, and Two Battery packs.

Would you guys recommend actives, or passives? I've looked into Duncan Blackouts, and apparently they're good for Djent and deep stuff, but what are they like for high-end?

Ugh. No, I don't know what I want. I know what Body I'm using to house the **** in. I'm not buying a pre-built, factory bass. I'm building it myself from scratch on a Custom order site. I hate to sound like a dick, but it sounds like you two didn't even read my initial thread. I'm looking for...

Double post: Can you stop shipping Spectors already? That's not what I'm looking for. I want a CUSTOM sound. I know what KIND of bass I'm building. I just need the MATERIALS.

I'm not looking for a brand bass. I know what I'm after. I'm building one. I just need to find the stuff that will give me the sound I want.

Nothing? I know it's kind of rediculous to ask this off the bat, so maybe I should clarify. I'm not saying I want you to define my entire sound for me, just that I'd appreciate suggestions. Ultimately it's going to come down to me, and you can bet your ass I'm going to test whatever I can before...

Now that I've got your attention, I am new, but I'm not THAT new. I play metal, mostly 80's era thrash. My Peavy International Milestone 2 works fine for most of that, but, I'm looking for something new, as I'm trying to expand into Djent, and Sludge Metal. I'm planning on building a...
