Traben Core 5 for Screamo?

[TimWilson]

If you're using as many pedals as it sounds like you are, then it doesn't much matter what's sending the signal to them. I think your bass is right here:

you guys are all ********. can you lay off the genre bashing?

Yes we are.

And no we cant because everyone's different views of music genres are incredibly annoying and there will never be a middle ground.

Also, you smell.

Does it matter what bass you use? Or anything for that matter. I'm pretty sure bass won't be heard anyways.

Cool, you know because that hurt so much.

Sorry man! I didn't know that was a sensitive subject (I think we agree, I'm just joking around).

Just curious if anyone in this thread that is speaking negatively of the Trabens has tried the newer Chaos Core series? I was one of you, not at all a a fan of the original Trabens with the chrome bridges and all that (never played one, just couldn't take the look of it). I then bought a Chaos Core 5, and I cannot imagine anyone calling it a sad lil bass, or really having anything negative to say about it! It has an Aguilar OBP-3 18 volt preamp in it, and MM Style pickups (Rockfield), with a 5 way pickup selector switch. The bass sounds really good, and I think you'd be hard pressed to find another 5 string in its price range that sounds, and is built as well (2 trussrods in the neck for the 5 string model for a stable neck).
By the way, saying that one genre of music is stupid is basically telling me that your opinion is the only important one, and mine isn't worth ****.

I haven't played the Chaos Core ones, true. But I didn't like a lot of things about the old ones - I didn't like the tone or the neck, and the construction felt half-assed.

i would recommend the core, but dont go around saying that is a bass thats only good for metal. i mean i would love one for my jazz band and praise band, the sound is so amazing but i cant afford it in a five string

The Fall Of Troy is screamo?

And since when does having a lot of pedals mean you have a bad tone? Don't base your bias on 80s buffered bypass pedals...bypass technology has come a long way since then.
