Thanks alot for the reply, man.:bassist: Well, yeah, some people in the forums said that it was too thin in sounding, lack of low end, the g string too thin, but for me it feels great to play, and sounded good too. Im sorry, but i'm stick into the decision to build one, because there was a...

the bridge pickup too??:confused:

Thanks for the fast and kind response!!;) I'm sorry, but i'm already having a lust for sg shape:D, so i'm stick with it. Is it? Oh, what a shame, i thought by changing the pickup position it will destroys the look. But thank you for the suggestion. About the pickup, not the position, do you...

Hello everyone, glad to talk to you all here. :D I am an amateur bassist, playing only for small gigs, but recently auditioned for a quite big local rock band accepted. The only electric bass(and maybe instrument) i had is a hofner icon bass, shortscale, hollowbody. With the stuff that my new...

Hello, i have posted before about strings, now i moved into another problem of my cheap hofner bass: neck dive.:eek: It's a very bad back bow, every high note(probably starts from fret 11) in every string, when i play it caused crazy fret buzz, even some of the low notes buzzes too. I brought...

well, honestly, i like high tension because i play with resting my finger on the neck and don't want it to sound sloppy. What i am afraid of is about the brightness.

Yes, i want to buy them to, but unfortunately there was nobody selling these string in my area, and i don't have any VISA/PalPay/any other online shop account to buy them online. What a shame. I lived in Indonesia, so my English were not as good as you guys, what does stiff means? Rough? Btw...

thanks a lot for the fast reply, So i assume for a hollow body it will get thumpy even without a foam? You said they are the finest strings i can get for rounds, do you mean it was a roundwound not flatwound, or you are talking about the price? I was quite confused here.:D

Hey folks, good to be here, to talk with you guys.:bassist: I have a little problem on finding new string, i currently use a hofner icon violin bass and labella deep talkin' roundwound strings, but i broke the g string 3 days ago. These string i bought 1 year ago, and yes, i love the sound of...

thank you, but i do not really want to purchase another bass. rick pups might be great, but i don't have any visa or paypal. And i live in indonesia. What about the seymour duncan one? Is it good?

I'm sorry, but you have to look back to my previous post. It's not the germany one. It's cheap. The stock string is a cheap roundwound. So i have replaced it with a quite bright d'addario nickel wound. Still, bassy all the way.

i'm in! what number am i?

my band consist of me and my brother. We play psychedelic blues, like jimi hendrix. The drums are sequenced by a old drum machine. We both sing. Our live performance consist of my brother's paintings projected into a layer behind us. We dress like nerds, but grow a lot hair. We use a reverse...

thank you for all the reply, it really means to me. I'm sorry i haven't said this before, but my hofner is not the germany made, mccartney like, mine is a hofner icon, budget version, bad sunburst, cheap knob, only $185, or 2 million in indonesian rupiah. Nobody's father would buy his son a...
