I’d like to know this too. And if one would compliment a musical style better than the other.

Curious how they sound being recorded direct. Hopefully someone chimes in.

Just checking back... No Tantra users or anyone who has played one?

Thanks everyone! Good suggestions. Gonna try out a few of these picks. This website seriously kicks ass.

I’m a guitarist but love playing bass too. I write and record my own music and am strictly a bedroom studio guy. So... I am mostly a finger picker because to me it sounds warmer and I can get the feel right when I play with my fingers. I feel more connected to the instrument that way. Anyways...

Been obsessed with this bass line lately. Is this confirmed that it was a Rickenbacker?

I do everything. Guitar, bass, keys, design drums, mix, produce, and sing the best I can. The instrument I’m by far technically best at is the guitar. However I was a State champion Tuba player in school which trained my ears very well for writing bass lines. Even though I’m a guitarist I’d say...

I’ve had a Mexican made Fender P-Bass since the mid 90’s. 20+ years I’ve had this thing. It’s served me well but I’ve never quite been able to get the sound I’m looking for out of it. It has a dullness to it that I can’t seem to get rid of. Recently I’ve brought it to guitar shops with me to AB...

First off thanks everyone for input. I’m going to keep looking for a vintage one but will also look for new builds as well. Interesting comment about a bass that sounds great live but not necessarily in the studio. I will be running this bass through a top-notch signal chain into a great AD...

Well yeah I’m set on going Fender. I was recommended a 71 and 72 for my price range. Just can’t find any. Don’t want to do the eBay thing.

Hello everyone, I am looking for a great “rest of my life” p-bass to invest in. It will be 100% a studio bass. I write rock music mainly. My budget is up to 4K but I would rather keep it closer to 3k but there’s the wiggle room. I have a friend who is very much into gear and seems to know...

Thanks everyone!

Hey guys, I'm going to be visiting northern Illinois soon and am wondering if there are any cool music stores that specialize in vintage gear. Especially P-Basses. I did a Google search but I know there's always some gems that fly under the radar.

Just found out about this DI. I see this thread has been dormant for a couple years. Anyone using these and prefer these over other DI's?

Yeah what a talentless jerk. He couldn't acknowledge Syd Barrett's talent but instead went on to write such crappy and talentless albums like Meddle, Dark Side of the Moon, and Animals. Sounds like a shoe salesman wrote those albums.
