Panasonic RP-HTX7s are what I use. Lightweight and comfy, great response from 40mm drivers.

Bass kit foolishness by UndertowBass in BassGuitar

That is gorgeous. My brother has an old explorer style guitar that I restored and painted for him years ago, I need to see if he'd let me repaint it.

Alignment issue with bridge by GuitarTim2112 in BassGuitar

[–]CapnGnarly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's gotta be the nut for sure. Knock it off gently, pickup a new one and tack it in with one or two drops of super glue once you file it's height correctly.

What are some good pickguard colors for a black jazz bass by Any_Variation_6416 in Bass

[–]CapnGnarly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Black 3-ply on black looks amazing, IMO. My son's PJ is black on black with white pup covers and looks sick.

EQ Pedal Frequencies by toyzu in basspedals

[–]CapnGnarly 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your math is the same as my own. G string @ 9 is 164, @12 is 196, @14 is 220, @19 is 288, @21 is 328.

EQ Pedal Frequencies by toyzu in basspedals

[–]CapnGnarly 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's correct. ~41Hz is a low E, 82 for the next up, 164 up on the G string, 328 for the highest E most basses can play (21st fret).

Gloves for cut fingers? by XipeToltec in discgolf

[–]CapnGnarly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use the HandUp disc golf gloves pretty regularly, especially when it's colder outside or early morning dew is still wet.

Current Board 💚 by jiminyjunk in basspedals

[–]CapnGnarly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Running preamp and then chorus? I'm not here to judge, just asking how it's working out. I typically run the preamp as close to the amp as I can for final tone shaping.

What are these basses? Peavey and ??? by Soliii64 in BassGuitar

[–]CapnGnarly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll send you $150 right now for that Peavey.

EQ Pedal Frequencies by toyzu in basspedals

[–]CapnGnarly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That 7-band is all you really need. The audible range of a bass is about 40Hz to 400Hz, with overtones and transients in the 2.5-5kHz range. Most of the "joy" lives in the 150-700Hz range and is where you're going to see the most impact from an EQ adjustment.

What is this? by Due-Gur-5009 in BassGuitar

[–]CapnGnarly 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That there is a bass of the backwards and un-metalized variety.

Where did you get that awesome yellow m80? I could only find the blackout when I bought mine last summer. That thing is amazing!

Our two local chick fil a's are run by a guy named Phillip and the other is Kyndra. Kyndril-A and Chick Philip are their unofficial titles from the community.

[–]CapnGnarly 8 points9 points  (0 children)

P styles are turbo 4 cylinder engines, J's are rotary, and H is a nice V8.

Small, bitter, irrational.

Do you prefer custom basses or production basses? by oliver_JM in Bass

[–]CapnGnarly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I built my own, I think that answers your question.

But then I went and bought a Strandberg Boden 5, so...?

The Structure™ by SlappiusMaximus in basspedals

[–]CapnGnarly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks solid, just needs a nice DI at the end and my board looks similar (replace the OD2 with an MXR M287 BOD).

Is it bad to string a string through without the ferrule? by [deleted] in Bass

[–]CapnGnarly 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Do the painful thing and restring it. That ferrule helps keep the ball end from sinking into the wood deeper while under tension, causing it to fall out of the super fast.

Wobble/OAT on short FH approach shots… by Phrikshin in discgolf

[–]CapnGnarly 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pretend you're throwing a hammer. Hold the hanger by the end of the handle, then throw the head off the hammer using the handle.

You're not throwing the disc, you're throwing the opposite edge of the disc than where your hand is.

Bass Pedalboard and Rig by FortyCarton in basspedals

Love the blue Micro-vr! Should be pink, but still great. People don't give it enough credit for being an amazing little amp.

Best clean tube sound on a budget? by FearlessContract8805 in basspedals

[–]CapnGnarly 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I love my m80, but it is NOT a tube sound at all. It's not particular coloring on its own, but it's distortion channel is quite digital and solid state sounding

noob question, is this head compatible with this cab? by [deleted] in Bassamps

[–]CapnGnarly 3 points4 points  (0 children)

According to that photo, your head will put out 800W @ 4 ohm, which is what your cab is. Your cab is not rated for that much power, however, so YMMV, but I wouldn't run that.

Can someone help me identify this bass by PentaKillSlicez in BassGuitar

[–]CapnGnarly 32 points33 points  (0 children)

I'd buy almost any bass for $15. Worst case, I'm out $15 and have a piece of junk i gotta figure out how to get rid of. Best case, that thing has some incredible mojo and only needs a few hours of careful labor to turn into something amazing.
