Lakland Bob Glaub noodle

I was selling this bass and wanted to demonstrate the installed villex passive electronics - I start with the rotary tone booster off and then turn it up one each time. I then turn the booster off and turn the mid shape to 50%, booster on 2 mid shape on 50%, then 100%.

The strings are brand new elites stadium - stainless steel 40-100 - lighter than I normally use.

Tone was rolled back a touch as the strings are a bit too zingy still.

BASS NOW SOLD

steel vs nickel advice?

i put nickel strings on my bass, after having the strings that guitar center initially had on. the strings from guitar center sounded a shit ton nicer and now i put these nickels on after a few practices with the band my bass started sounding really woody and the slapping sounded loose and shitty. could it be i was used to my stainless strings and nickels just not the sound im looking for? let me know your thoughts. nice playing by the way.

I use elites stainless or rotosound stainless if the elites are out of stock - mainly because they're cheap, they do the job and are readily available.

I've played both great and crap examples of each - can't stand ernie ball strings, they've got a definite feel to them that I really don't get on with - some people love them.

I've used nickel plated warwick yellows in the past - they're good and cheap.

Now that is soundin' pretty gnarly. Brand new steels on p's with maple neck always wreck shop

[MrRedrocket42]

Damn, this is the best sounding p-bass I have ever heard period. This is a passive system? WOW!!!! What has been upgraded exactly? Pick-ups and passive electronics? Can you please tell me what the system includes? Thanks!

Would you reccomend the villex pickups?

I know it's sold now, but what was the price for it? It sounds great.
