Monster Mash, Werewolves of London, Superstition, any thing from Rocky Horror, Bad Things (True Blood Theme Song), In the Afterlife, Disco Inferno, Boogie Man, Borris the Spider. Those are some of the simpler tunes from by bands Halloween list. Hope that helps.

I've played bass for the last 10 or so but my background is guitar & I've played that much longer. Bass is tuned to the same intervals as the lowest 4 strings on guitar down one octave so the chord diagrams you find for guitar are easily applied to bass (minus the guitars "B" & high "E" strings...

If you like the sound of the pedals engaged but are not digging the pedals in your chain bypassed, get your self a true bypass looper. Simple inexpensive passive pedal that will take whatever you plug into it in & completely out of your signal chain. They'll work w/o power too as the battery...

Not being familiar with that particular device, the reason interfaces will typically have more than one set of outputs is because in addition to the unit being the link to get your inputs to your recording software, it also becomes the computers audio card. The tracks are not mixed together in...

I have a custom shop Jazz bass & it sounds fantastic. I also own a squire 5 string P w/ a P46 installed & I prefer it over the J in feel & tone. Superior? I don't think so. My preference? Yup.

I'm primarily a P-bass guy. Before you go through the trouble of routing for a P pickup though, I'd 1st just try giving your self the option of the 2 J PUs in series. Might be close enough to a P sound to satisfy the craving & still give you the classic J tones. (I almost always use both PUs on...

I'm a P bass guy all the way tone wise. Also love the P neck vs the thinner Jazz neck. I do however strongly prefer the Jazz body shape, pick guard & control plate. That being said, I play my heavily modded lefty squire P 5 string (used to be a 4) all the time while my US custom shop J sits...

You're exactly right. It's a P46. I'm very happy with the tone regardless of price. But I am thrilled that such a great sounding PU has a low price tag. I dropped that in there before I converted it to a 5 string. Figured if I didn't like it, I would leave it as a 4 & put the original...

Here are some updated pics of my Squier 5. It didn't start life as a 5, but I haven't seen a Squier production model lefty 5 so I made my own.

Here you go.

Here's an update on my severely modded lefty Indonesian Squire P. It started life as a 4 string with a white pick guard. Just added the tort guard & I love how it looks save for one area of under coverage by the jack. I did indeed order a squire pick guard so it should fit but oh well. have to...

I'm teetering on the edge of ordering this monster.

I'd try using an MB200 as a preamp.

+1. I converted my 4 string squire P to a 5 & I'd love a J as well.

I haven't played they're basses, but I've had a Schecter C-1 classic guitar for about 5 years that is just quality all over. When you consider the price, it's a no brainer.
