Hey folks, I'm wondering if anyone has any input on this piece of gear. I'm considering it fro a fretless P I am working with. If so please shoot me a line or reply here. Either way I would be grateful for any input. Thanks!- Tommy

I am in same boat...wondering what to do to a Franken P. I have a Bart P and am wondering whether to add another Bart J @ bridge or buy set of EMGs P/J configuration. I am definitely leaning to the old stand bys though as opposed to the new "X" type. I am trying to get the "Jaco" bridge tone by...

When you can almost get an UNWANTED contact high from the drummer after he gets back on stage after the break.

Alvaro, I stand corrected.Sorry...I mistyped. I meant to say .or type that I had a Fender Musicmaster bass. My dad bought it for me along w/ a Kustom 200 bass amp. Blue sparkle roll and pleated covering. Sorry about the misprint guys.....

I lost my first one in a family move.It was a Musicman..1971 or 72.Have regretted not having it.

Bassist for the praise team at The Highlands UMC Gainesville GA. Thanks for opening this post...in fact I just got home from rehearsal fot the Sun. service. All the best to praise team players ...it can be a challenge. Pray for us as I will for you all. God bless .

The pink pack....45- 100 All I use....imho..possibly the best all around string on the planet and I have tried quite a few brands..... BUt when on a string quest...for anyway I still tried the GHS-Ken Smith-any other brand you want to fill in the blanks with.And it all comes down to personal...

All of the above and then some.This is cool because I just traded for a Stingray w/ a piezo.And I am really digging it.I had resolved to a Pbass..but I think this guy is a bit fatter and more resonant w/ the piezo...first time I've had a piezo so am still learning and experimenting.... But my...

Check your ohmage on the GK top...I bet it's a 4 ohm min. load.If your 2 10 cab is an 8 ohm. try to find an 8 ohm. 15 cab. Hook those up together and you are probably like what you hear.Or aquire the TNT 130.Those amps do sound good. Have had one in the past ..and have a Peavey Mark Bass top as...

I have come to be happy w/ a Hot Rod P bass...light enough American quallity etc. etc. I also have been 'round the block in quest of the bass and the tone....it's all relative and for me here I am back at the P Bass .....All the best on your search you will get a lot of input on this one . But...

Gonna sound old school ...but it's hard to beat a P Bass......I recently landed a Hot Rod P.A 2000 model I love it.Have had several in years past ...standard ...not Hot Rod.And regretably traded or sold them in a similar quest as you ...and at the end have come to it and a GK rig.....and am...

OK this may have made the circuit a few times but there may be someone who hasn't responded before and it's always fun..at least to me.... James Jamerson for me and I hope I spelled the last name right. So if you aren't too cool to reply....let's see who moves you on the lowend.

SWR Goliath is a good one.

Go Old School..EMG.

PUt a 5.3ap Bart pre @ 18 volts in my SR506 and replaced the pups w/ real Barts also. It's too touchy ..clips ...just not too happy ...going back to 9 I think
