@13thStreetGuitars

would you recommend this gretch over an ibanez, cort or squier short scale basses??

[13thStreetGuitars]

@PaynefulltoWatch You'll need to try each one out and make that decision for yourself. Each has a different overall feel and sound. This one was is really cool, though.

how would it handle drop tunings?

@NapoleanXV it wouldnt be so much about proving you wrong as it would be about conducting a fun friggin project. could do other axes too, try to dial in a tone that they arent known for, do a blind test let people listen to a recording without being told which bass is played and w/out seeing it. Results could be interesting. It could put a lot of opinions on certain axes and tones to rest. If I only had the means.

[NapoleanXV]

@brooklynstudio My experience dictates otherwise but if you can prove me wrong I'm up for it!

[brooklynstudio]

@NapoleanXV they do have tones they are famous for will definitely agree with that. But I still gotta stand by my comment on this one. I will say though that besides tone, a p bass and a rick just have so much character to them visually ya know

[NapoleanXV]

@brooklynstudio you can make them sound like one another if you take out all the high end and high mids. But at the end of the day when you crank up the gain and you need that rattle, grit and clank, the rick will always come over the P bass. The P bass is a much smoother low mid range focused bass. Not to say I dont like both. I love them both, but I would never say they sound like each other at all through any rig.

@NapoleanXV one thing i have to say is I have no idea why that comment posted like ten times hahaha. But I'm just talking from experience, I've been able to dial in tones with a nice aguilar preamp and whatnot, and on a recording, you'd never know what I was using.

[NapoleanXV]

@brooklynstudio Its not all in the amp. A P bass will never sound like a Rickenbacker. Rickenbackers have a unique construction which accounts for their sound. A p bass sounds like itself and a rickenbacker soudns liek a rickenbacker. thats just how it is.
