How would I go about fixing that? Flattening the curve?

Hey guys, I'm currently using Labella white tapewounds on my fretless, and when I go up into the upper octave, the higher I go, the less note you hear, and the more "thud". Almost every note above the 15th "fret" sounds awful. I'm looking for a string that gives me a consistent tone, allows me...

Hey guys, I haven't seen any threads like this, so I thought I'd ask. I'm looking for a bi-amped head with crossover. One that I can send my highs one way, lows the other. I'm also looking to go used, so if you have anything you'd like to refer me to, It'd be best if it's durable. I'm a fusion...

Hey Guys, I'm looking for a set of strings that hits a specific criteria, and I was wondering if any of you had stumbled across some like this: I want a string that sounds like a GHS Brite Flat, with a lot of top end, and really thick lows, but, feels and plays like a chrome flat. I want that...

I recently acquired an ESP LTD 8 string bass. It came in octave courses, and I started wondering: What if I tuned the higher strings to a different interval? I've never tried this before, so I'm curious if any of you have tried it, and what intervals you would recommend, along with set up, and...

I understand what you mean, pacman, the correct wording would be "Higher authorities that want to squash dissent". Granted, I'm not inciting treason or munity or anything, but I am trying to spread the word on a topic that all soldoers need to know, but aren't being told.

Well, it's a letter that could be construed as contraversial, and I don't want the government to shoot it down before soldiers see it.

Does anyone know of a way to send a message or letter so that it gets to every signle, or as many as possible, military personnel?

I've seen Steve Bailey do that. Some cello players in my orchestra use that technique, but I've never tried it on electric bass. Would that solve my problem?

Action is like 1/16 of an inch off the board, almost right on the board. All strings are of uniform height, and the neck is flat. I don't know if it's exactly 180 degrees, but it's flat to the naked eye.

I did the intonate with the octave, harmonic, and open note. The 12 is right, but everything above that is off, and the strings are about a month old.

I have a Music Man Freltess Bongo 5 string, lineless, with dots on the side. I know these dots line up exactly where the fret would be, and they are accurate up to the 9. after, they're off, in increasingly larger increments. I know the whole point of a fretless is to use your ear, which I do, I...

Is it possible to put Upright bass strings onto an electric, even if it meant cutting them to size? What About Contra bass, or piano strings?

hmmm... I guess that'd work. Anyone know of any super heavy guage strings that are flat wound?

Thanks French, I wasn't Aware of that resource, looks like perfect gauge options. Now, the question is, what kind of strings are they? Stainless round, nickel half, chrome flat, tape wound, etc?
