I am currently recording this song and am going to try and get my bass sound close to the original. Here is the video of the song. I'm really not sure what is going on here. It sounds like it's very compressed, and is possibly being slapped and popped. I'm not even sure it's a real...

I've been doing some home recordings, and before I mix and master my tracks, I want to make sure I'm doing it right and getting a true representation of my mix. I know mixing on my computer speakers or in cheap listening headphones is hazardous to mixing, and I was wondering if that is the case...

What are some of your favorite fender bass mods? Some things you like to do to make your Precision bass or Jazz bass that much better. Exclude obvious string changing, pickup brand replacing, etc... I'll start with mine P-bass: Install bridge pickup, humbucker or jazz bridge cover If...

Just a really quick question. I was talking to my brother, who's a bit of a guitar gearhead, and much more technologically inclined than myself. I was talking about buying a new head, and was wondering if I should bite the bullet and go all tube, or just get a tube pre amp and solid state power...

If I put this in the wrong section, I apologize. I was just wondering some EQing things i can do to fit into a mix better. Just to sort of fulfill my role as the bass player. I know that the bass is more of a midrange oriented instrument, and I should sonically cover a certain space in the mix...

I have a problem, that I'd think many other people on talkbass have had, and it's probably a very noonish topic, but it's a big problem for me. The problem is, I can dial in a great tone on my amp when I'm standing a few feet from it, at about band practice volume. When I walk across the...

Hey yo, I was thinking about putting a music man pickup in the bridge position on my p bass. However, I don't want to have to purchase and install an entire preamp unit in the bass. Just add one or two knobs. 1. does anybody have soundclips of this pup combo? I have played the American Deluxe...

Gonna try and keep this post short and sweet. I put an ebony fretless neck on my jazz bass, played with a set of (dead) rounds (probably shouldn't have done that..:rollno:). The rounds hardly messed up the board at all, but when one of them broke I replaced the set with a set of roto flats...

I should have posted this in the morning so I remember better... So last night I went to bed (completely sober) and I had a few dreams, none of which I really remember except for one. I dreamed that I was at a concert and the bass player was using this really crazy bass. I don't feel like...

I have a peavey 115 combo which gets decent tone because I saved it with a sansamp. but anyway, with the amps tone aside I wanted to get a 4 ohm extensin cab for it because the 4 ohms will drop it to a 2 ohm load, allowing the full 300 watts to be used. also more speaker surface=more volume, as...

I'm glad they're not like this.:smug: http://www.bbc.co.uk/comedy/lookaroundyou/2000/200026.shtml why not make the neck wider? who knows...:hiding:

Does anyody know of a website I can buy a sort of creme or vintage white jazz bass pickup covers? :help: Couldn't find any on ebay, allparts, etc.. thanks:D

also why we love pete townshend man would it kill john to move?

I was thinking about putting some flats on my p bass, and was wondering if I could still get a good rock sound out of it. Not necessarily a hard rock or metal sound but more like a Zeppelin type of a deal. a while ago i swapped the pups out for Fender original p bass pups and those are great. at...

I recently got a really good deal on an SJB-1 bridge pickup for my jazz bass. I noticed that the 60 cycle hum is no longer eliminated with both pickups on full. I was planning on replacing the neck pickup also, but I got a great deal on just the bridge, so I bought it. Anyway, I have heard that...

I have this amp. Read some of the description before helping. http://bass-guitars.musiciansfriend.com/product/Peavey-Combo-115-Bass-Combo?sku=481380 And was wondering if hooking it up to an external cab would be a significant increase in power. The description says it gives a 100 watt...

what do you prefer? what bass do you use them on and why do you like them. just bored and starting some conversation:smug:

kinda new to the site and I can't find them anywhere on the site. do you have to be a supporting member to even view them?

so who loves the 2008 fenders? man i sure do. played a P at GC today. gotta have it man. Post 'em if you got 'em!

is it enough power to play medium sized ckubs? i know most places these days have a P.A. system but just incase there isnot one i still want enough volume. thanks!

what is it? don't see one except the logo maybe...

i have the non-programmable version and was wondering what some people use as their settings. it would be especially helpful if you play a p bass through it cause thats what i am. thanks

hey i just joined talkbass. if i wanted to join say, the p-bass club, how would i know what "number" i am? haha. or do i have to be a supporting member or something?

Who knows whats better? i hear good things about both, as one would with pretty much any topic. but still could anyone with experience with these pickups point me in the right direction?
