warwick5s posted:Really nice bass. Did you get it new or did you get a wenge-necked one? I got it used. The guy only played it for a few hours all together. Its a 98 version before they changed a lot of the specs, it has the wenge neck, brass nut and 26 frets. Strap locks are different than the pic too but for the life of me I cant remember what you call them.

BluJay posted:daaaaaamn. I've been playing a corvette for nearly eight years now, always wanted a dolphin. If you could find one made before 2001, get it. This is the best bass I've ever played, and the tone is extremely versatile. It looks huge and odd shaped, but it balances perfectly.

Thoogsby posted:This thing is so much fun. I haven't got a ton of time to play with it but I'm really loving it so far. I really like playing weird spacey post rock stuff with it. This is a rough rough draft of some of the stuff I've been playing with it. Sounds pretty cool . Can you play a bass through it?

7seven7 posted:Oh God, it's placing in a chain makes a difference to the sound?! Christ. I've always just been a plug in and play guy. I don't have any other pedals yet, but this scares the poo poo out of me. I've always been told the pedal with the highest gain should be the first, and the last pedal in your chain should have the least. Do that and don't have long cables connecting your pedals, and your sound should be fine.

BluJay posted:Oh gosh, how much/ where are you/ what condition is it in? 3000, Ohio, in great condition, like 3 small barely noticeable scratches and a tiny nick/dent on the very end. I circled it in red, and mine has the snap on strap locks. So this is a more accurate pic now I only have a crappy cell to take pics with, if your still interested I could take a few for ya.

Juaguocio posted:Ooh, squelchy! Are you using that for bass? I've been looking into envelope filters and that one seems to offer a good balance between tweakability and ease of use. Yes I am, and this thing is the poo poo. If you have the 200$ definitely go with this, but you can also get MXR's M82 for 50$ cheaper.

Would the G-string work well with a bass, and bass type effects?? My jazz bass has a constant hum when my hands not on the strings or bridge, which is just a grounding issue I suppose. Also two of my pedals add annoying buzz thats just there. I'd love to have a quieter rig without killing my tone.

Warcabbit posted:Okay, I guess this is the best place to post this. I found a guy on ebay who's closing out a music store. He doesn't know the value of stuff, so he tends to price Squiers like Fenders and Epis like Gibsons, but he corrects it when you point it out politely. Calling dibs on the black semi hollow Yamaha.

Its been way too long since I've been able to post in this thread. Got a Ibanez artcore AM73 today for 200$. Really wanted a semi hollow, so when I saw it on craigslist at that price I jumped on it. Hardly any wear on it, sounds and plays like a much more expensive guitar. I am happy I play bass, not my first electric but I think I'll definitely keep this one and learn to play. Its a dark reddish/brown finish, lovely camera phone makes it look black in that pic. The wood grain looks really nice too. Constipated fucked around with this message at 20:06 on Oct 3, 2012 |

Dr. Faustus posted:I've always wanted an Artcore. I think they're pretty fantastic, but I'd be afraid of feedback at volume. I don't have any experience playing hollow/semi-hollowbodies loud. They are beautiful though, and even with the stock electronics they sound great. Yep, not sure what type of overdrive I should go with. Right now I play it out of my ampeg bass amp, and use my Sansamp bass driver and Carl Martin chorus. Such a lush clean sound man.. Definitely happy about this purchase. I'd appreciate any suggestions, I kinda want to get a Big Muff. Seems like something every guitar player gets, for good reason. Definitely a harsh distortion, but I've wanted to get it just for my bass for some time now. Whats a nice, mild overdrive pedal??

My friend just bought a SX jazz clone for 70$. I have to say, it looks and sounds better than I imagined it would. Still not as good as a Squier though.

I don't know why anyone would want to buy a Gibson these days considering how good some Epiphones are. That name at the top isn't worth as much as it used be, thats for sure. ~status symbol~

I have the Sansamp and love it. My favorite advice for finding good tones? Turn them knobs, on the pedal, your bass and amp. Find what you like and remember it. Write it down, tape a little mark on the pedal or whatever. I love how it makes my Pbass sound, great full sounding motowny tones. I roll off the bass on my J (my rock/metal bass) and it makes it sound pretty gnarly. I don't even really have to turn any knobs on the pedal when I switch bass's either.

Ernies are cheap, thats about the only reason why anyone should buy them. I've always paid a few more bucks for a set of D'Adarrio or Fender strings. I can't say that I've ever had a low E string break on me before.

It's some sort of Ibanez ATK. I've always wanted to mess around on one of those but haven't found any shops that had Ibanez basses that weren't soundgears.

Everything about that bass looks fantastic, except for the upper horn. Sorry Caseface, I don't understand the appeal of having the horn flush with the neck, and I've never seen a bass that did that that I liked the look of, but to each their own.

I like the design you are going with way more than the singlecut, the ramp is sweet too.

Love the blue, nice grab man. So I'm seriously thinking about trying to really learn how to play guitar, again. I really love the sound/look of strats, jazzmasters, teles, but haven't narrowed it down to a single model. Would also like to get a nice amp that is gig worthy, not some small practice amp with meh sound quality. I don't know jack about guitar amps, any recommendations? I would mostly be wanting to play some dirty funk nasty tasty riffs. Definitely going to be playing a ton of Ween stuff. Any recommendations? Also, anyone have any experience with the Jay Mascis Squier jazzmaster?

Got a polytune the other month, If I do end up getting a guitar rig going I'll probably move it over there, and chose better wires and probably make a board from scratch myself. Really need to clean my pedals, but they haven't been getting all that much use lately.

So about a month and a half ago these came in the mail. Did I do good goons?

# ¿ Sep 22, 2016 11:39 |

I want to thank you Faustus and all the other goons who discussed those 2 pieces of gear because the opinions in this thread pretty much completely influenced that purchase. So far it's been a blast messing around with them, even though I'm a newcomer to guitar. It's motivated me to pick up my bass guitars more too, ironically. Anyone have any recommendations for guitar books and stuff like that?

So I came to the realization lately that I would prefer to have a strat over the Jay Mascis jazzmaster I currently have. What would be a fair selling price for it, or trade value? its a sweet guitar, I just prefer the tone and shape of a strat I guess.

I mean I really really like it, the bass toggle switch thing is sweet and is almost a kill switch if you move it quick enough. Neck feels great, body and paint are pretty, love the white on gold. Strats are just.. THE guitar, for me I guess, okay!? I like how they play all around in general, I don't really like the feel of this bridge and bigass pickups, its never felt right picking around there if that makes sense. Took me awhile to realize I just didn't like how this thing felt as a whole. Sounds pretty loving sweet through my lil yamaha modeling amp, that is for certain.
