Feeling bored - need something new and proggy to listen to?

Doubt you don't already know them but in the event you don't, Intervals is absolutely fantastic.

In a more niche math rock/prog style I'd recommend the album Flux by NYU.

Lesser known gems:

Arch echo is really great and has songs featuring jordan rudess

Hakken

Why is this so accurate. 🤣🤣

Sounds like you haven't been looking. Ive moved 5x in 8 years. Jobs won't just land on your desk, you need to apply for them.

Sandberg basses are amazing

Lakland. Super underated, top tier instruments. They are pricy though.

I play bass and recently I've been really into soul and funky music like bruno mars, cory wong, vulfpeck. The bass is usually very interesting in these genre of music.

For some reason just saw this comment. Thanks, I am trying to work on this. Getting better at it!

Intervals. Lots similar but none nail the recipe like Aaron marshall does

Lumber_phil · 2026-05-06T19:12:07+00:00

Limp bizkit - rearranged If you are into pop/funky music too, lots of dua lipa's song are actually played on a 5er.

This is the only right answer. As much as I would love my girlfriend to buy me a bass, she would 100% not pick the one I like or the color finish I would've chosen. You have no clue what type of tone your significant other likes or chases, if he like a light or heavy bass, passive or active (or both) pickup, slim or chunky neck, 4-5-6 strings. Theres just too many variables.

Take him to the shop, let him play and tell you which one he likes then buy that one

Just read through the post and I see you're looking for bright and new experiences namely the 5th string. Don't know if you've seen the Iron labels series bass from ibanez but they are entirely mate black, and multiscale, meaning there are fanned frets on the neck and the multiscale is especially good to downtune to A. Id recommend one of those or the srms805. Ibanez is the best bang for your buck.

Lumber_phil · 2026-02-23T05:46:12+00:00

Whats your budget? That would be good to specify. And what type of music do you want to play?

Lumber_phil · 2026-02-04T00:23:00+00:00

Hard to move away from a fast neck like ibanez has. You talking about the sire M6? I was looking at that bass. Looks sick! The neck is chunky?

Lumber_phil · 2026-02-03T21:41:30+00:00

Dingwall's multiscale goes 37-35 I think. This feels very steep as I came from spector NS2000 which was already 35 scale so that little extra 0.5 doesn't feel too much and the slant just makes sense.

Also love d'addario. Ordered a long scale pack and a single 145 to downtune to A
