I have no experience with bb3s. I suggested the seths as I have a set in a Hamer Monaco Elite (LP style guitar) and I love them in there including for the styles mentioned. I've never had issues getting through the mix, I imagine because it has a decent amount of mids...in fact I was asked...

I started out learning bits of maiden and metallica songs on a cheap nylon string classical. As weepingminotour said there are a few situations that just won't work...but a six stringed instrument with standard tuning (which can also be adjusted to some extent) can be used to do a lot. If...

I'd suggest a Seth Lover rather than a JB. Alternatively a PG would probably also work for what you're after.

I imagine this is a simple yes/no question - although I imagine opinions will vary of course. On bass do you roll your fingers to play at the same fret on two adjacent strings like on guitar? Say you´re playing an E on the 12th fret of the high E and the next note is B on the 12th of the B...

That was an expensive delivery. I hope you enjoyed your trip to Sweden. Where abouts in Sweden did you go?

I thought I´d post this here in case people haven´t already come across it. Strikes me as a video only a musician could love, but really interesting to watch (at least the first time). I bet it was a fun project to record...although a hell of a lot of work to mix...and probably not a lot of...

I have to imagine there couldn't be a problem finding brass saddles though I honestly don't know.

Looks good to me... here's an original for comparison.

The stock humbucker in the bridge of my Hohner (hss strat copy) - which I didn't like the sound of anyway, started failing intermittently and I wasn't able to get it working. So I replaced it and the wiring and put a PG in the bridge. That was 2008.

You've been busy. Well done!

Well your subconscious has been learning your whole life...and as we age we have more things that can be done without consciously thinking about them. IMHO we also rely more on computers and phones etc. etc. too much these days...meaning we rely ever less on memory and concentration and when...

Yes

At that price I don't think they are worried about their audience being affected by a recession. Dumble inspired amps undoubtedly with a Dumble inspired price tag. My guess is they shoot for a ridiculous price at first to try and cover r&d costs on the sales to people who don't care about...

They come with a six saddle bridge in the case candy that you can swap straight in.

Mmm, they have a second-hand shop.
