Yep, ditto. I have yet to try all my basses with the D4, but of those I've run it with, they all play just fine. Fingers crossed!Seems to me that some basses get on with some amps better than others is a ripe topic of which I know nada.

Ok...you are crazy. Feel better now?![]()
If I make the calculation for this club, it should be:"If we all didn’t have a little sanity in us, life would be boring!"Better than being called Shirley! SR, if we all didn’t have a little crazy in us life would be boring!
Definitely an interesting subject - however, for me, it's generally a matter of dialing up the right EQ setting for different basses. I'll have a setting for my Jazz and another for the Precision - that fits the particular amp I may be playing. And, as you know, very subjective as what sounds sweet to me, may be sour to you!Seems to me that some basses get on with some amps better than others

Obviously a Thunderbird copy with the headstock already snapped off.The bass and pedals are constantly changing, but the delivery is always through my Marcus Miller CMD 103p

Sweet! So did it come with the Fralins new or did you do the upgrade? Those Fralin P pickups are the cat's meow!I’m liking the Rumble 500 so much, I returned the GK Legacy 112 combo and got a new Fender American Pro, Lindy Fralin pup and TI flats. Sweet bass...

I did the upgrade and they are the stock ones. So good.Sweet! So did it come with the Fralins new or did you do the upgrade? Those Fralin P pickups are the cat's meow!Are they stock wound, 5% over or under wound? I've got the 5% overwounds in my P - hot, punchy yet warm with traditional thump and VERY present in the mix! You've achieved Precision nirvana and I salute thee!

I had a very similar experience with my MB150E. Which reminds me...That little firecracker seems to be the exception to that particular rule and I totally agree with your assessment. I can’t say that about many others.
That's a beauty. I think I'll have to find a reverse someday. Speaking of the headstock, that might be the smallest T-Bird headstock I've seen. I was going to riff off of your headstock joke that snapping off a Thunderbird headstock might be the best way to keep it from diving for the floor, but that one looks just about perfect.Just funnin' with you.
