hey man, could you just give me a quick review of that squier? im a newbie bassist who's looking for his second bass. this will be my main bass for at least...3-4 years. i am looking for a bass thats very versatile (capable of a deeper p-bass style tone and also of the classic j-bass sound) and is good at slap. it seems like this bass is good at that. would you recommend it for me?

[bassmanwho]

I would say go for it! I believe this is one of the best in this price range. It sounds great, feels great, and is very playable. I love it a lot!! Go to a GC and pick the one that feels best in your hands. After a couple of years playing, you may want to upgrade the pickups, but the stock ones are moderately good I suppose.

dude i respect you youve got it down keepin the slaps light i have to work on that so i can get more technical

[bassmanwho]

I really think keeping the slap&pop lighter is essential if you're like me... I play finger style really light... so getting balanced volume is really important.

[HammondB200]

what did you did to it? changed pick-ups? other strings? edited the action?

[bassmanwho]

[hanzabass]

[lzslrs]

hey, this is a Squier jazz bass is not it? What amp you used in the recording?

note: if my English is wrong is because I'm from Brazil .... thanks

Some constructive feedback here. Don't pay attention to the camera - put your concentration into your technique. Make the volume and attack of all your slaps & pops consistent. You seem like you have the chops & ear to pull this song off but your technique is not cutting through or it seems like you are not trying 100%. If your going to publish a video on YouTube then make it your most passionate performance of all. If it takes you 50 takes to get there, so be it. BTW, that tone is killer

did u replace the bridge as well?
