SX Baseline tone

Before modifying this SX bass in any way, I wanted to get a sound clip of it "as-is" - no setup, no new strings, just the way it came from the factory.

Thats some sick playing man. Is that rythem from a song or something? Plz reply.

@natedog642 - Thanks, it's actually something I just made up to try to fully show the sound of the SX bass. I'm sure it's from bits and pieces of other things, but nothing specific.

[neurotictim]

Thanks to the folks who "thumbs-down"-ed the super-negative comments. I rather thought this video was a good example of the quality that can be had from Rondo, if also illuminating of my horrid playing. :shrug:

thank you so much you just sealed the deal for me. i was considering buying an sx, but i never looked into an actual video of someone playing one. and this is with no adjustments of the action or even the truss rod?

correct?

and your one sick bass player just saying. thanks again.

[neurotictim]

No adjustments at all... I hated the sound of the strings, and the action was high, even for me, but what you see is what I got.

Thanks!

There will be a thread on it this weekend on TB. Project Python, dual P similar to the Prism bass with an added reversed P pup near the bridge, and all high-quality hardware.

Very nice, is this the model that retails for $109 on Rondo?

[mortaldraw]

I'd say that the Sx basses could definitely compete with the squiers from what I've heard.

[MrFunkysatan]

i have a streamer stage II,a G&L jb2 fretless,an Ibanez sr 1005 prestige and a Fender p Usa but i think that i will buy an SX bass for sure!

[yourmamamama1]

Wow, all I can say... you should go on the road and promote the SX line, if I didn't have an SX , I would purchase one after watching your video !

[JazzSXman]

Great sound man, those SX,s basses are great instruments for the money

[JeRemYYanKEE]

great video man i like your tapping style and i love those SX,s basses yours sound great, did you do some king of professional set up on that bass?

[Orangemongoose1]

@mortaldraw I had a squire that my uncle gave me (since he got an MIA Fender) and I sold it and got two SX basses and after he heard how they sound he went online and bought one xD

[MRCOOL2345e]

@mortaldraw and the mexi fenders is what i heard. im gonna get a custom warmoth neck and some dimarizio dp127s in mine when it comes

[hackerzfever]

[MacFarlane92]

[tornmask]

@MichaelThomas : yes, but they changed the headstock, now it's call Ursa SX Basses... =0l

Great demo - don't listen to any of the naysayers! I just ordered a SX bass for my son based in large part on excellent demo vids of the SX such as yours! Thanks and nice playing!
