My new bass rocks out loud!

[Bass_Thumper]

You forgot "tonewood."

Oh, and "Mothman."

I believe that there is a compartment on the back of the Mothman where you have to insert a 5 watt Crate.

Maybe if i sell my acoustic b200 head and cab combo and get a 5watt crate i will sound better.... Oh and trade my schecter for a bc rich! I need some wholesome sound too!!!

 

[Spleenface92]

So, what you're saying is...I should sell my Alembic, Fenders, Kramers and Squiers and buy a BC rich, sell my Hartke and Acoustic rigs and buy a 5 watt Crate amp if I really wanna be awesome and wholesome at bass?

This is a scientific fact I used to quote when I worked in a shop. . . . . . . . Light is a combination of energy and heat.

man. i wish i could come up a title for my threads like this one. and then follow it up with some silly statements.

to me, it's priceless.

I was just jamming out to some Dragon Force and my new B.C. rich black widow and my crate 5 watt mega amp that it came with. It has such a wholesome tone and warm punk and awesome crunch. The black makes it look epic.
if anyone wants advice on a bass rig just post your questions *goes back to rockin' out*

I just threw up in my mouth a little.

 

[Sterrrling]

Huh...interesting

I am in a metal band. Last practice, they were all telling me that something was wrong, the bass just didn't sound right. No matter how many knobs I tweaked, though, no one was happy with my bass sound.

Now I realize I made two HUGE mistakes.
1. Had a powerful amp. My tone lacked any wholesomeness whatsoever.
2. Was using a sunburst bass, instead of black.

I just bought an electric bass guitar, and lemme tell you, it rocks my world! I haven't even plug it in, but man, even unplugged, it has best sound in the world!!34!!
I know, no pics, no bass, so here ya go, me playing it!
Ready? Go!

This thread is priceless. Period. It must be the christmas time. That and soon-to-be full moon. Or should i say, fool moon.

Was the bass pointy at all? That could be number 3. You can't have one of those lame "Fenders" with the stupid rounded edges and contours.

OP says: Black basses and 5 watt Crates are good for your health.

So, what you're saying is...I should sell my Alembic, Fenders, Kramers and Squiers and buy a BC rich, sell my Hartke and Acoustic rigs and buy a 5 watt Crate amp if I really wanna be awesome and wholesome at bass?

If you wanna be the best, you gotta play the best. And all your stuff sucks.

Well, now we won't be needing firewood, cuz It's not like I could sell all that crappy gear.

After you sell all of your good gear, maybe you can get a First Act bass to go along with the Crate.
