    Essex Bass Club - Part 13

    here's a couple videos of me playing my 2009 SX Jazz Bass '75 at a club here in Chile (supporting Stefano Parodi). The sound engineer had to cut some low frequencies because of the bad acoustics of the venue, but you can still hear the bass. Also, i wasn't in the best of moods because i had just...

    Essex Bass Club - Part 13

    I got my SX Jazz Bass 75' back in 2009 when i joined the forum. I'm from Chile so i got it on a trip to New York. I got it for $159 i think and its been an incredible bass ever since. I posted some audio clips back then, even thought on buying some Alleva-Coppolo pickups but i didn't. After a...

    Essex bass club part 10

    I've been thinking about changing pickups on my SX, even though i like the general sound of the bass, there's some balance issues between strings (the E String sounding louder than the other strings), so here's my question: What do you think about putting Alleva-Coppolo Jazz Pickups on my...

    Looking for a 5 stringer around 1500-2500$.

    Used Ken Smith on Ebay, a friend of mine got his 6 String Smith (with very little use) for $1800... so check the classifieds here on TB or Ebay, Craigslist, etc. Maybe you can find a 5 String Ken Smith Burner for that money (you said you like Hadrien Feraud). In fact here's one...

    Squier vx. SX (give a noob some advice)

    SX, but you have to change the strings, put DR high beams on it and you'll get an great sounding bass for very little money. Here are some examples of my SX 75' Jazz Bass. I was just messin' around, i'm sorry for the bad playing. First you can hear just the Bridge Pickup full volume, then the...

    Club Alleva Coppolo (Part 10!)

    What about Blue-Sparkle Maple LM or a Lake Placid Blue-Maple LM? I've yet to see any picture of a Blue Sparkle AC here, i'd love see a mockup of both LG5 and LM5 in that color, would that be possible for the mockup masters here?

    New personnel on the Jeff Beck tour 2010

    I loved the Vinnie-Jason Rebello-Randy Hope-Taylor section. Randy is one of my favorite bass players, i think he's kinda underated, what a groove!. Vinnie is Vinnie, the best all-around. Jason Rebello is a monster too. Anyway, the new band is also full of big names.

    Just auditioned for Lady Gaga's 2010 world tour....

    Wow, that's awful, well maybe as 3rdinstrument said "this was a case of musicians auditioning for an acting gig".

    Are you a hobbiest, part-time or full-time bassist?

    Full-Time Musician, i get 100% of my money from music, but not as a bass player (i teach, arrange, compose, etc). I play in a couple bands and do some sub for friends once in a while but i took the bass more as a hobby, even though i'm always playing.

    Just auditioned for Lady Gaga's 2010 world tour....

    Very interesting. I think that as professional musicians we have to be intelligent, if you go to a Lady Gaga audition you just can't go there looking like a salesman and play your 6 strings custom Fodera, Smith, MTD, etc...nono. If you go to a Lady Gaga audition where they care a lot about they...
