Thanks! I picked that bass up a few months back off of ebay for cheap but the neck pocket was F'd so it just sat in my closet until recently. I took it to a tech friend to for a dose of magic and now it plays like buttah. Its my living room practice bass.

What had happened to them? I missed the diagnosis.

My best guess is it had something to do with the 4/8ohm switch not being fully engaged on 4ohm.

I always forgot that when I was in a hurry.

I just snapped a couple quick phone pics when I took the speaks out and hooked them up the same way.

I shook the shvt out of my apt testin it after I put the back in. It sounded great at practice and it really made me realize how much I dig how it sounds. Sooo much clearer sounding than the fridge I was borrowing.


Looks like we got some recording time set up for Nov. Stoked about that!

Who did a live recording and then over dubbed guitar and vocals here? Corey, Beebass, someone else...? Any special tricks/foreseen circumstances in doing this?

This seems to be the only way we are going to be able to get anything.

Depends what you mean by live I guess, but both our albums we recorded bass, drums and the main guitar part live off the floor. We then overdub the guitar and add some lead guitar parts as well. We tried single tracking but it was too hard to get a recording we liked, we couldn't improvise and it sounded too stiff.

The only issue we ran into was tracks bleeding into each other. You need to make sure the main live track is solid because you can't completely eliminate parts from the recording if you try and fix them with overdubs.

That's pretty much how we do it.
