It’s back from the dead! The TB Mega Thread.

I had a rather odd gig.

A few minutes before it started my bass stopped working. But something was wrong with the power in the place because I had my Mesa Prodigy cranked to 8 and was getting the volume I usually get at 1. It was a smaller place so it worked. The guitar/singer had a similar experience. So I had to borrow someone's Stingray just assuming my jack went out again. I've had this bass 12 years, the only thing that's ever gone wrong with it has been the jack so I just figured it was happening, again.

Got home and the Status is playing just fine. Harumph.

It did reaffirm how much I love my Status S2 Classic, though.

Here's one of the only pics you'll ever see of me playing a bass other than my Status.

d'awwwwww SOUUUUUSIEEEEE!!!!

[MSUsousaphone]

Yay!

I do miss you guys. I do most of my surfing on my phone and ILF so sucks on my phone. I would donate so my hard D for an app.

[MSUsousaphone]

And fuck Ghana.

Good to hear!!! I thought I had remembered you having one. The price was stupid cheap too, so worth the risk. I fucking love flangers, chorus and phasers. UGH.


I bought a Squire Jazz not that long ago and it sounds fucking great dude! I kind of wish it would stay set up better, but I think if I upgrade the tuner keys, and maybe the bridge, it will be literally the perfect bass for 200 bucks. It sounds every bit as good as their expensive models.

I know you're talking about a baritone, but still. Good shit.

The Bass VI isn't really a baritone; it's a real 6-string bass, but with two higher strings instead of a low B, and it has much smaller string spacing.

But yeah, I already have the Squier VM Jag bass, and love it. But the Bass VI just really calls to me.

I got a portrait of Sousie with the Stingray tatted on my back.

[MSUsousaphone]

Oooooooph. I don't want to stare at myself all night.

I got a portrait of Sousie with the Stingray tatted on my taint. They gave me a good price at Scrotumburg and Anusville.

That's more like it.

[excane]

And that's not helping my GAS for a Mesa prodigy/Strategy Sousie. Pimp photo though!

[MSUsousaphone]

My Glockenklang went into the classifieds quite quickly.

[Jwar]

Any hits on it??? I've always wanted to try one but I've got a Prodigy as well now. LOL. Killer fucking head dude!!!

Excane be hella jealous.

I'm jealous of his fucking bass collection. Swear I'm going to have to come to NY to visit and droll!

also, ChocoLaserBOOM is my new favorite word.

the way i say it to myself ALWAYS. MAKES. ME LAUGH.

I'm not one to hate on pedals generally but...

I've never heard a pedal disappear as much as the MXR Bass Fuzz Deluxe. Bassist in a trio before my band used one tonight, and you could not tell it was on. No mids at all; it might as well have been plugged straight in.
Honestly felt bad for the guy and offered to build him something better.
But really... it's an awful pedal for live use. And I usually love MXR's bass pedals (own 2 myself). But they completely missed on their fuzz.

How they get high reviews on retailer sites is beyond me.

[behndy]

yeah. that's a clunker from their bass series. AND it has that mid boost switch i think? comple disappearing uselessness.

also,



CAN'T. STOP. LAUGHING.
