I just fixed mine a couple of days ago. Moved the strapbutton behind the neck, right where the neck joins the body. Screwed to the body of course, not the neck. :)

Really smooth trying to get this one to fly by adding a nice touch of patriotism to the mix...

About 6'3 and around 230. Apparently I'm scary allthough I'm about the nicest and calmest guy you'll meet. A trait which seems to go hand in hand with playing bass from my experience. I did some construction work during the summer vacations from Uni for a few years which contributed nicely to...

So apparently you're familiar with the B:ASSMASTER now. I'll get mi coat. :D

Sorry for a quick OT, but would you say the difference is audible in the LH500, might change the tube on mine if so.

C'mon guys. 40lbs and heavy, really? :) I understand the whole thing with gigging daily and carrying all your stuff on the metro etc, but for all the weekendwarriors etc. 40lbs really shouldn't be too much. Heck, my fiancee has carried my lh500 in a rackbag a few times without complaining about...

You'll be fine. I had my LH-500 paired to the 6x10 for months. The amp can handle a 4 ohm load, meaning you can connect two 8 ohm cabinets or 1 4ohm cabinet to it. I ended up selling mine because I couldn't get a sound that wasn't sort of wooly and too bassy from the combination. I got very...

Link Removed Haven't gotten around to building the profile back up after the forced change by myspace, but hey, you asked for music, not nice graphics :)

Oh wow, first time I've seen one outside of the 5-string one that a guy at work is trying to sell me. Sounded good and was easy to play, very tight stringspacing though. Congrats on the new bass! :)

Great video. I'm jealous beyond words of your hair. :D

Well, the video the OP posted was tagged with "goblincore" Made my day :D In all seriousness to the OP, I'll be checking you guys out, I really enjoy Link Removed, and you guys seem to be somewhat similar.

My CIJ Jazz. I believe it is some sort of a 60's re-issue, not 100% sure though. Strung with chromes for absolutely killer tone and playability. Link Removed

Actually had this guy for a few days to try out. Did a gig with it on friday and boy am I digging it! CIJ Fender Jazz in CAR :bassist: Link Removed Link Removed Link Removed

Drop me a pm with more info on the type of music you guys play. I'll give you some ideas of clubs/bands to try for some gigs. Turku is really bad for gigging atm, a lot of the smaller good venues went under in the past few years. We've got a gig at S-Osis tonight, come check us out and come say...

Wow! Great stuff and from a fellow tb'er from Turku :) Any chance of seeing/hearing this thing in a live situation at one of the clubs here? E: Btw, where did you get that nice veneer? Might bee looking into doing something similar to a bass I have sitting around...

Hey guys! We just got 2 of our more mellow songs, Blackest Stone and Threads, mastered and uploaded to myspace. Have a listen and tell us what you think! :) Link Removed

How about saving a bit more and getting the Line 6 m9. Haven't tried the m9 or the harley benton/behringer -pedals, but based on stuff read online and the opinions expressed on talkbass, I would think the line6 is a far better buy than a bunch of pedals you'll end up trading once you get a taste...

I just recently ordered the polish love. That at about 50% gain into my VT, wow. Finally found the distorted tone I've had in my head all this time.

I just got an mc800 nt, the passive 1 mic -version in a yellowish color. I'll put up some pics once I get the chance. Really digging how the thing plays and sounds, just not sure if it sits in our band's mix as well as a P so might have to move it along... Made in -79.

I'm the guy in our band who owns the cameragear, photographs as a hobby and knows his way around photoshop. We've always figured that something "not so hi-fi", in terms of image quality, works best. I think photoshop can be your worst enemy or best friend, when it comes to stuff like this. For...

Not too obvious at all, and appreciated, but I've tried it, infact I play a few of our songs with a pick. It just seems that no matter how I eq the hartke, playing with a P or the bird, I just can't get anything but a big round tone. It is really confusing, since the basic characteristic of the...

I think you've nailed my problem there. I'll be trying the head with the 1x15 orange cab, hopefully that will get me closer to what I'm after.

I don't know why, but for some reason I don't really gas for ashdown. Played through a few ashdown-stacks and always found myself not really enjoying the tone (with the exception of friday's gig, where the backline was a cheap 300w ashdown-stack. That tone was pretty close), I think I might...

I've tried the different "flat" -settings as well as a 2-10-2 or 4-10-2 to really boost the mids. Still not getting enough definition to the sound. Perhaps the main culprit is the cab and the fact that I'm not driving it hard enough to really allow it to open up. Carvin has some interesting...

Yup. I can dig out a lot of different tones from it, but the mids just seem missing for some reason. I'm getting a VT once the local store receives my order, so perhaps that'll change the game for me. Thanks for the helpful tips so fare guys. I'll propably still end up changing the 610 for...

Always an option. The thing is however, I'm feeling that the lh500 might be the culprit, or then I just prefer a tighter sounding cab. It feels like I'm unable to get a tone with any significat punch out of the rig, unless I push it to extreme volumes. The tone is big and warm, but nothing else...

I'm also looking for something a bit more compact. Our guitarists both play 2x12 65w tubecombos, not very loud. So I'd be well off with a good 4x10 or 2x12. The 6x10 is a bit too much to lug around for my taste.

Hey guys! I've got a bit of a problem which I'm sure most of you've had at some point in your playingcareer. I've got a seemingly good rig, Hartke LH-500 and Ampeg svt-610hlf, but I'm unable to find the kind of sound I'm after. I'm playing an Epi t-bird through the rig, but that isn't the...

Mine means smallpox in finnish... I was reading a book dealing with bioterrorism back in 2000 or thereabouts, when I needed a nick for a few forums. :p

How is the neck on the Model-T? Is it really skinny like on some of the other diamond series schecters or more like a chunky P-bass neck?

A shameless bump hoping for some feedback during these not so busy holidays... :)

I actually think that different tastes in a band are a good thing. Usually helps shape the music into something new and interesting instead of sounding just like the band that everyone in the band listens to. :) On a general note, people who don't respect others in the band and/or are...

Hey guys. We just finished our promo, Silent Skies. Feel free to have a listen, all feedback is extremely welcome. Link Removed We're a band from Southern Finland, that has been playing together for about 6 months now. We've really been perfecting our live package during that time and now feel...

Ok guys, I ended up putting a black pg on this one. Looks better to my eyes anyways. :) Link Removed

Born and raised here too, except for 5 years spent in Texas.

i'll do a quick rundown on the process at the end of the week. Typing this on my mobile, headed out of town until friday.

I'd go for black on that one. I just yesterday finished redoing a similar bass, which was actually my first bass back in 2001. I went with black, mostly due to the new finish though ;) Link Removed Link Removed That'll give you an idea on how the black hw works with the white pg. I've...

Link Removed A short soundsample with tone on full and tone at 0. So far I'm feeling confident that it'll work really well with the band.

It's actually a see-thru woodwax, used for wooden toys, furniture etc. Supposed to take punishmet pretty well and will wear off in a stylish "old furniture" sort of way.

Thanks! I also really dig non-glossy natural finishes. Looks like the headstock is lighter in the first picture, in reality it is the same color/darkness as the rest of the bass. Was originally planning a black pg, but might have turned out too dark, I'm really digging the white-black-mahogany...
