I listened to it all. I hate how pf have sooo many slow paced songs.its off putting to new ears.
Re: Aspiring musicians (Let's talk music/Gear/Goals).
Ok, so bought myself a 1977 pre ernie Ball Music Man. Been playing a 92 or 94 MM for 20 years, so this is only my second bass :) But I think it's a beauty so I thought I'd share.
More or less 100% original (new mute thingies) and I had it refinished (nitro cellulose)
It was stripped off its original sunburst some time ago and then finished with a cheap brush on gloss finish. The finish was sanded off and it was given the original three tone burst.

that's very nice!
Re: Aspiring musicians (Let's talk music/Gear/Goals).
nice, never thought that model had been around for that long. You'll instantly sound like Flea now, which is nice
I just got an American special tele, which I love. But thank god I didn't go above that, really no need to, as this video shows. I actually prefer the Squier's tone

They both sound like crap :-) , but I m sure the playability of the expensive one will be better. I played a cheap squier bass once and it really Hurt my fingers because I had to press down so hard On the strings.
First year of production for the music man stingray was 1976. Leo Fender designed it.

How many guitars do you have?

Man, that pickup looks like the size of a brick. It'll probably draw all the iron in your body down to your balls.Mescal wrote:

About ten, a strat, a Les Paul, a Vai acoustic and other things. But as with most guitar players out there my collection is more impressive than my playing most of the timeMescal wrote:They both sound like crap :-) , but I m sure the playability of the expensive one will be better.

I've got a Squier Bullet Strat, and a 2014 American Standard Strat. The standard is way nicer to play, and feels better, along with being nicer to look at and has better hardware, and presumably, wiring.
I'm yet not to do an A/B sound comparison.... I should do it but would be mortified if they sounded the same hahahahha
