Fretless version of this bass actually sold on ebay for $2500. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Fender-Custom-Shop-Master-Built-Tye-Zamora-6-String-Fretless-Bass-Alien-Ant-Farm-/251241315215?nma=true&si=4t92NtOE1Xg3J9Aq8u4vjmYuQnA%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557
34" to 35" scale is really negligible in terms of the sound and string tension. There is a difference in playability in the first few frets but I wouldn't think as much in the higher frets. I think what you're feeling may be the difference in neck profile and string spacing. SR series have...
Is it a Maschine MK1 or MK2? MK2 has the multi-colored pads. MK1 is just orange. AFAIK they upgraded the pad sensitivity for MK2. That's the only version I've personally used and I thought they were easily the best pads I've ever used on a midi controller. Delay between hit and the sound is...
Wait so the lowest string would be F#0? That's hard enough to do with a bass I don't know if it's even realistic on a guitar without having extremely fanned frets. At that point you start to blur the lines on what the instrument really is. Anyway, assuming 30" scale 10 string Agile you could do...
He's got a real clanky tone IMO that is too light. A lot of bass players prefer lighter strings because they're used to them already but it's also because extended range strings and balanced sets haven't really been available/accessible until recently. Before Circle K and now D'Addario you...
Skip replied to my email late last night. He didn't explain the delay in response but apologized and offered to give me a full refund which is beyond what I would have asked for. I just asked for him to ship me the string and we're good as far as I'm concerned. He handled it like I think we all...
Nah 25.5" to 27" would not be a drastic difference. 52 gauge string might be a bit big for E at 27" tho unless you really want it super super tight. 48 would be feel about like a 52 feels at 25.5" The high strings would feel more like an 11 gauge set.
This is my main point. If this was "Skip making strings in his garage" I would have to cut him a lot more slack but this is "Circle K Strings" that does international business, that has a booth at NAMM, that endorses artists. If they're going to try to come off as a real business I'm going to...
They have my full name and home address I'm not hiding behind anything. I don't care what their business model is. The fact of the matter is they have some areas in which they could improve and no one seems to be pointing these out to them because they have apparently existed for a while! If...
Since when is a week too short of a time frame to expect a response? It's 2013. Keep in mind I like the product quite a bit but this is obviously a problem that has existed for a while and still needs to be fixed. You can't cut businesses slack on this shit I don't care how much you like them...
Leave but take the drummer and the singer. You can always get more proficient but you can't teach a guy discipline at this age. Plus they already know the songs. Sounds like the bass player and other guitar player are just gonna drag you down. I feel like they would go with you or want to start...
I have some friends that are trying to get active in the hip hop scene around here. No joke, a promoter asked them for their Facebook login info so he could use their accounts for promoting the gig (spamming flyers) and then said he would pay them for every login that they gave him. When they...
They're trying to run a business if they provide email as their primary form of communication they should make sure it's working correctly. It appears this isn't the first time this has happened. They also didn't double check a really simple order which led to this. I haven't had any previous...
If you can comfortably afford an Axe-FX or Kemper then get one. A lot of people still use the Ultra. You will not be disappointed with either. Otherwise Pod HD is the next best thing for significantly cheaper. I only really have experience with the Pod HD500 which I am very happy with. The...
Yeah that's pretty good. You could probably haggle for both. SM57s are extremely durable don't even worry about what they look like on the outside. There are stories of people using them as hammers :hbang: It's basically the same mic as the SM58 AFAIK the only difference is the grille
for what it's worth Meshuggah tunes their bass to unison F and Vildhjarta tunes theirs to octave below F. similar music you can compare To me, octave below F sounds deeper and is heavier for slower sludgy stuff but for more thrashy/groovy Meshuggah unison works a lot better
