    How can i get a real funky sound with DIGITECH BP200

    I know this is an older post, but I found it in a search and was curious if you ever found an answer. I use a BP200 and have some really great patches that I have created for it.

    Schaller vs Gotoh bridge

    Just installed a Schaller on my MIM 5-String Jazz and it is a COMPLETELY DIFFERENT BASS! I love the new lower action and adjustable string spacing. It improved the tone so much due to less string tension.

    Review of Schaller Bassbridge 2000 5er(beware- massive verbiage warning!)

    Ditto everything you said! I just put one on my MIM Fender Jazz Bass and... WOW! The improved tone for me was because I could lower the action and play with looser srting tension and "pluck" more lightly as you said. I first noticed this when I was retuning with my SNARK tuner. It was way...

    Ibanez SR1006 and BTB1306

    I know this thread is 100 years old, but I thought it was funny because I own both of these basses and LOVE each of them for different reasons. It's a love triangle that will last a lifetime. I would hate to have to choose between them!
