When playing live you just have to roll with the punches and just expect your sound to change every venue. Live equipment is all about versatility. you almost never will get "your" tone at every venue or at least not using the same settings you have to be very flexible and sometimes you need to...

in the discription from dimarzio's site it says the split P was designed to compensate for how midrangy the 1 pickup P sounds and extend the bass and trebble to make it sound more full sounding. so it sounds like it was made to enhance the good reduce the bad.

i like emgs for "organic" sounds

mesas have seemed very bright and slightly nasaly to me with eq ran flat so expect to have to deal with that. but they are pretty solid cabs i love how the housing for the cab is so close to the speaker so the cabs arent unecisarrily big they make the cabs as small as possible.

i must be the only person who has had a good experience with behringer ***? i have a 120w 1x12 practice amp and yeah its not pro quality but omg that thing is a tank. ive done ALOT (50+) small gigs with it (highschool gyms, marching band in the pit, marhcing band in the stands stuff like that )...

other 8x10s i like is basson and a particular GKone but i forgot wich model it was

yeah i suggest a used ampeg 810e i got mine for only $550 gc wanted 750 and i flashed a few hundred dollar bills to the salesman and he got the manager to ok it then had them put it on lay-away and picked it up 2 weeks later

i bought my ESP B405 without playing it first but i had a good idea what it would be like. i really liked the sound of the schecter elite 5 but the emgHZ P'ups threw me off also the b405 had neck-through-body for only $150 more i tryed the ibenez SR555 and the bariloni pickups diddint do it...

what about a dimarzio split P? or do you want like a classic sound? still not sure what you are after

yeah you might just need a more expensive wireless =(

try running your bass in 18volt that will add alot of balls to your sound and is REALLY simple can find all the things you need to do it at radio shack

im kinda thinking the jazz would be something special. not too many people will buy theese and would be easy to get rid of if you diceded to. plus they already have the blocks you want i couldent imagine justifying 300 bucks for that when the fender comes stock with it.

he talks about his setup here http://www.bassplayer.com/article/high-fire-/May-2008/35685 he uses some kind of gibson or dean with humbuckers like on a thunderbird

P basses get pretty hummy if you are useing alot of volume and gain. i had to redo my P-basses ground before because it was shocking my hands. you should double check that. it only takes 10 mins to replace so it is sorta a "beter safe then sorry" type thing

damn thats a pretty color! wish i could pick it up unloaded just with the gold pickup cover w/ out bridge. thats odd it looks like the bridge has the thru body option but the body has no holes in the back. i cant buy it tho i blew all my christmas money on random stuff and early valentines...
