    What sounds can you get from a Lakland 55-02

    Can it get that classic jazz sound, like both PU's on full? especially that classic slap sound? Can it get a good Music man sound? How about a P bass. Does it have its own unique sounds as well?

    i am thinking about installing active EMG's in my p bass. i have read and researched about these pickups and they might be the extra thump and punch that i need. i have Seymour Duncan QP's in mine and they are ok i guess, but no real punch and clarity, just bass boom. I will not and...

    Thinking about installing EMG P's

    i like bass, but i don't want it to over bear the clarity or punch of the instrument. it's my understanding that EMG's are able to produce that solid punch and precise sound.

    Thinking about installing EMG P's

    i love the sound of that. good punch and clarity i have SD bassline QP in mine right now. they are too boomy and bassy and just sound bad to my ears now. would this be a good switch?

    Should i get a Darryl Jones 4 or 5

    Finally decided to get me one of these bad boys having played one and was completely pleased by the sound. that said, i have only played the 4 string and was wondering if the extra low B would be worth $? I like the idea of the graphite reinforced bars in the neck of the 5 which the...

    Light Gauge Strings vs....

    how much brightness would stainless steel 40-95 contribute to the sound of a bass compared to 45-105 a lot? a little? just wondering before i take off my badass II to put the stock bridge back on, all maple body of my bass is really too zingy.
