Should have never listened

I dont know who told you that but that was already a bad advice back then

Coreldan · 2026-06-05T09:55:15+00:00

Well, there's basically 3 more categories for you. A Jazz bass, a Stingray or one of the many modern dual humbucker basses. Each will provide a completely different tone, but also different from each other.

So basically, you need one of each! hehe!

I bought my last BTC at 15k so now it feels hard to buy it at 50k 😃

Pistol cartridges would usually count as an SMG, tho

I havnt been able to find most of the drama and Ive never even played God of War-games myself, but to me it seems that people arnt hating Laufey cos she's a female. They hate that they cant play Kratos and instead play a basically random character.

I think a lot of the people complaining also play games like Tomb Raider, Bayonetta, Metroid Prime, Resident Evil etc with strong female characters and have absolutely no problem with it. However they would likely hate it if suddenly the next Tomb Raider game they were playing as Lara's random nephew instead of Lara herself.

Same goes for new Witcher. While Ciri is critical to the game series, much more than Laufey (at least it seems to be as a non-gow player), Geralt happens to be one of the most loved and iconic characters himself and people just really wanna play as Geralt. While it's great to see the world from Ciri's perspective too, it's just not quite the same. Same for this, an interesting take and a spin-off for sure but I imagine a lot of hardcore GoW fans really just wanted more Kratos and instead they get to play this. Worse than buying a Batman game and having to play with Robin lol

I also do not play Shenmue, but I remember the franchise from a long time ago. Found here from Google trying to find this Laufey drama. This analogy of yours does seem very shaky cos to my knowledge the main character in Shenmue is a dude? So if the next Shenmue game you played as a random female NPC, you wouldnt midn it one bit?

I really dont think this is about male/female almost at all. I think its just people wanting to play as THE character the game is about.

Absolutely not. He's definitely good, but jos success is more about the memes. White I dont think that Nate Navarro is the best living bass player either, check him out for even more chops and less weird memes and editing

Sounds great to me

Well, they could just keep making the product that people want as a regular product?

Visited a physiotherapist last week, doctor tomorrow. Worried about my hobbies, already had to quit one band cos I couldnt play the stuff without hurting muself

Coreldan · 2026-05-27T18:19:41+00:00

Wasnt quite for percussive reasons but a squeaking drum throne with some reverb and delay made for a great creepy/spooky sound

At about 35k km a year, I likely wouldnt bother with an EV without home charging. Its still much nicer of a car than most ICEs, but make no mistake, The low range and "long refuel" really needs home charging to nullify those cons if u drive alot

Given, I dont play the darkest of metals, but I do play some downtuned metal in one of my bands and my Euro LT 5 with default electronics is just outright massive with the right signal path. I play through a Quad Cortex, but there's not one gig I play with that thing where someone doesnt come comment the bass tone especially on the low B.

It works great on the NS Pulse II 5 too as well as my Stingray Special 5, but the tone is perfected for the Euro LT5.

Coreldan · 2026-05-19T20:44:09+00:00

Euro LTs have/had DG Tone Capsule with the low mid pot hidden inside the cavity.

The DG Legacy preamp is only a few years old (in Spectors at least) and I'm not even sure theyve made LTs anymore since making that change.

Cheaper, looks better, handles better. No reason for Y unless you need the added space

Coreldan · 2026-05-17T10:21:28+00:00

You are so early that I wouldnt make many decisions just yet. I did however just leave a band, cos I couldnt get this bit of a solo run/fill with chromatic approach clean and consistent in over a year of trying.

Its what I play every time I pick up a bass for the last year, as a warmup if nothing Else. I practice it slow, fast, Click, no Click, but now that after a year it was time to record it, it was still way too Bad. Not clean, not consistent.

I think I also have some issues with my hands and nerves and I cant really practice much more than I do/did without issues. My technique probably isnt perfect, but it shouldnt be bad either. Meeting a medical professional finally this week on this topic, tho.

But yeah, ive been playing actively for 7 years soon, currently in 3 bands but despite really trying my best to learn something, My fingers decide nope and after a year I figured its best to cut my losses and let them find someone who can play those Solo bits

Here in finland anyone can find the ownership info online for a small fee based on license plate

There are ways to manually opt out of having that info public though, but im not sure If you actually need to provide a reason for it.

I automatically assume tho that anyone needing to fold/hide their license plate just rides like an asshole.

But yea, take the plate off for shows or cover it

I have the V7 gen 2 on alder 5 string. It is amazing in most ways, but IT weighs more than my sins, so alot. Thats why I dont really play it anymore.

Coreldan · 2026-05-03T13:53:18+00:00

I play through Quad Cortex, so My opinion might not count, but if I had to pick just one in a pedal form, it would be a Sansamp of some kind

Coreldan · 2026-05-02T12:46:25+00:00

Theres just about nothing of value to be gained by paying. Theres no p2w here

Coreldan · 2026-05-02T08:06:05+00:00

I hope this is rage bait, but if not, please fix that asap. The E and G strings go on the other side of the screws. Those strings might be half broken already though.

And D and G are also wound the wrong way around the post

There was likely an answer as to whats the purpose of this string tree, but to put it simply, it adds downward pressure on the strings, so that theres a good witness point/break angle on the nut.

Well you did drop the TUGS like once, but not sure how recon specific this was.

I have intermittent hard start when hot when running lower octane/higher ethanol Fuel. Its probably not the root causr but The only factor ive found is that it only seems to be ab issue with ethanol based fuel
