    That looks killer with the EMGs! What model is it, Stiletto Stealth?

    Looking for a bass that fits these criteria

    It's definitely on my radar, but I'm considering it for the 5 string spot. Have you played a Dingwall? I'm curious about the comparison because I want a multiscale and not sure if DW is worth the extra cost.

    You're spot on. I didn't like having both pickups on on a HH stingray because the bridge pickup was actually already occupying that sound profile between bridge J and a P and the neck pickup took away from it. I have to admit I used the fast neck as a catch-all term. I quite like the jazz neck...

    Looking for a bass that fits these criteria

    I wanted to try out a Meteora for the longest time. They look amazing, hardware config is exactly what I'm looking for and I'm quite content with the neck on my jazz. But it seems like it flew under the radar and people usually show disdain for it on TB. Hoping to get my hands on one in the near...

    Wasn't familiar with Schecters but damn Riot and Stiletto models look like exactly what I'm looking for at a first glance. What's their reputation like? Any Schecter players in the thread?

    Euro 4 LX has been on my radar for the longest time but they're quite a bit expensive over here.

    Appreciate you taking time to reply. I will have a look at J config Ibanezes but just can't get over how sad the lower horn looks on that specific model

    I also thought the same thing but just couldnt get a sound I liked out of an HH 'Ray when I played it at the store. Felt too honky with both pickups on. Been wanting to try a Bongo if I could get my hands on one.

    I wasn't aware that Sire had an HH model, definitely will be on the lookout for that one although availability seems a bit limited in canada. The price looks quite good as well.

    Looking for a bass that fits these criteria

    Hi folks, I'm on the lookout for a new bass that has a tone closer to the tone I want. I try to try out as many different basses as I can when I'm in the store but it helps when you know what you're looking for. I'm familiar with the usual suspects like Fender and Musicman (currently have a 4...

    Gallien Krueger Club. GK Rules !

    Joined the club a few days ago with this beast: I was on the lookout for a good deal on a head for a while now and this thing popped up for super cheap and i didn't even think twice about it, being a Tool fan and all. Now I just need a cab to go with it, suggestions are welcome.

    Conversation I've had with my drummer

    Yeah I kinda regret posting the clip, not because I dislike the criticism, it's true, but I feel like it took away from the point. I wouldn't come here to complain because my drummer told me I was out of time, and he does, which is great. But that wasn't what was said and I thought it was an...

    Conversation I've had with my drummer

    Yeah I was hitting (well, trying to hit) a dead note on the beat with the first sixteenth after that being the first note I was actually playing but around the recording time I stopped playing the dead note and just started playing the second sixteenth in the beat instead. Maybe that's why I got...

    That book is EXACTLY what I was looking for, thanks a lot!

    Funnily enough I normally play with a pick but I'm playing with my fingers here. I appreciate the comments, I'm just gonna go woodshed now!
