Anybody?

Coupla Peas and this: "other"

 

[Thumpin6string]

I guess I'd have to say other since both my fretted and fretless were built by me.

Hey guys.
Let´s see what are you playing with!
You can vote twice.

It’s an American PJ. Plays well and records great. Phenomenal on gigs.

 

[Low Down Brown]

G&L's: M2500 and LB-100.

Those two get it done for me.

 

[skortch]

Hmmm. 3 Warwick options, 3 Rick, and 3 Ibanez... but no Yamaha?

Over the past 5 years I've mostly alternated between a G&L 2500, BB 415, and most recently an Ibanez ATK 805e has joined the rotation. Out of all of those the BB probably gets the most stage time right now as it best fits my current gigs.

For me, it's a 5 string P from Lakland (Skyline). I play a P style bass for a few reasons. First, when I've had very configurable, active basses, I've usually found a sound I like and stick with. In other words, a lot of the enhanced functionality is lost on me. Second, having a limited number of controls and only one pickup makes it easier to dial in your sound to a room or group setting. I know this is counterintuitive, but on the bass itself, a little roll of the tone knob one way or the other is usually all it takes. Lastly, for most non-bass players, the P bass is the bass sound that they have in their heads. It's part of the "P bass magic" - it sounds like it fits because it's the expected sound.

Dude where is carvin (and their other name)????

Oh man, and Peavey?

heck, you have brands AND MODELS for those brands.... but, only a half dozen or so brands??

It's the poll designed to make me not sleep at night. My OCD is activating...

 

[LedReign]

Gigs?

 

[dkelley]

Ok, other than my dislike of the options in the vote... really interesting that (besides Other which was going to win of course), Precision is the top unique winner, over jazz, then over stingray.

Very interesting

Fine, make me hate myself even more for being so trendy with my Precision strung with flats. Ugh.
