Grenouillère « Great jazz bass ... Classic! »
Published on 03/29/11 at 10:03Made in: Mexico The bridge: the original, this is a standard Fendérien ... But on mine, I have a Badass II. Nothing to say, it keeps the strings! The handle: Profile "C" on the very standard jazz bass vintage! I hear about it later ... 20 frets ... Varnish very very nice ... Who gives a look very nice! Mics: When I received the neck pickup was almost dead ... The former owner had omitted this detail !!... Anyway ... After replacing with new! Pwowoauuahhh ... ! Settings: Ben is a jazz bass! 3 buttons: one adjusts the microphone volume == serious side handle, the second adjusts the microphone volume == acute in the bridge position ... And the last rule tone (from low to high). Very simple ... The quintessence of the bass! The concept of "plug and play" ... One branch and Yaouhhh ... NB: With the amount of existing quality external preamp, I do not understand why people insist on buying low hyper active, wrapped with electronics, which become silent when the battery loose ... But hey!
UTILIZATION
Sleeve: a feast! Without doubt one of the best for this type of bass. Without wishing to exaggerate, it is very fast (but he leaves soon !!!). In fact, as research on t is a jazz bass? Slapper either, or make good grooves, or play good old rock? So those who want to do solo at top speed: either opt for a guitar ... Either you lean on Ibanez, and marmick consors ... A Jazz bass: the class ... A low quiet one who wants a beautiful sound by very nice pumps! It's not a bass to play tits "Mouse" ... I said, there are tools made for it in trade. Tjs so if you're there, so be aware that this bass will be very nice to make your plans for walking, pumps ... The handle is fine. It lends itself very comfortable in a game without getting tired! So the dream! of course, go solo or break without worry! This handle is super accurate! It lends itself unflinchingly plans syncopated ... For ergonomics: RAS! Good Job in the standards of weight and shape ... Oh yes, the look is very successful! It really looks like a low-60s: The mechanisms are the same, the logo is similar to the logos of epochs, etc. ... honestly ... it's pretty bleuffant Sound: At your convenience! Is very groovy, very smart, very rock ... Finally everything is possible if you know how to set a tone and 2 volumes! After as stated above, the rest will be from your preamp ... And with your fingers! Say that this bass supports all modern techniques and old bass. Nothing can stop you!
SOUNDS
Oh the sound! Well I'll make it simple ... It's a jazz bass sound all that is more "classic" ... Basically, you plug in and you fall 40 or 50 years ago: It growls, it slide, as it sends in the good years! You are transported in large periods of the good old motown or rock bands, just turning the amp! I would say yes for those who love it ... Least for those who want to play the modern! I love all the sounds, they are very flexible, despite the apparent simplicity! Well yes, the basic advantage when it is that is you go to carve it up! This is not the effects or electronics that help you ... So we can all play with the modern, good vintage reggae, funk-of-race ... That's low "Swiss Army Knife". You have a gig, a night ... You do not know too? Take your JB and then no worries! Everything will go ... Just kidding but not that much! Say it can cope with situations bcp. For example: Some sound very Yam midrange and treble. Try playing the blues with a yamaha! You will understand ... In reality this is a very low known, very common ... But who can do anything (aside from the sled, though ...). I play on it all: a 110 combo w / a head 130 W Made in US / splitters of PA / live in a multi-purpose / on the pc ... And each time I am surprised at the quality of what I get out! It's crazy! It is an architectural design known, and yet ... This is the "classic"! Disadvantage: This bass is quite demanding. Say that the imperfections of your game stand out. So it needs to be worked regularly. Indeed in this respect: it's bass work par excellence. Then rehearsals ... Ben concerts too! In concerts, I take it there and my P bass! The rest is useless ...
OVERALL OPINION
I use it for several weeks. It became a treat: After changing pickups (for info I provided the original Fender! Because they sounded nice, but the neck pickup was dead ...). Watching her, I tell myself: "Why do some buying U.S. ???". And it is unfortunately true ... Why spend twice as much, when you can have the same thing for half? Value for money: If it was not marked "Made in Mexico" on the back of the neck (below the mecha), I think I could have put the price of a Rican ... Seriously, good bassounette! Reliability remains to be seen in time ... Though?! Really violin exudes quality. The good agreement is badass ... The mechanism does not move ... The neck: a real treat! ... Sound: Jazz bass! So why put more money? By snobbery? To say: "I've got a U.S.! And do not you !!!"... In fact, I do not care cause my bass! As long as it pleases me, it sends a good big sound! Honestly ask yourself the right question if you are considering buying a U.S.: Do I want a standing or to have "the" sound? If you choose the second option, try this series "Classic" ...
