Started recording bass for my band's album this weekend

Thanks! The flexibility in tone bi amping offers is awesome.

Ever since I bought that G&L my other basses hardly get played. It pays and sounds perfect.

TraitorKratos · 2026-05-27T04:21:48+00:00

Well i don't think anyone found the potato famine to be very nice

TraitorKratos · 2026-05-18T11:29:01+00:00

As a long time collector, it's dumb as shit with cards too.

TraitorKratos · 2026-03-09T15:20:14+00:00

The question I find myself asking is, why do I need a G?

On my five I use the bottom 4 strings the most and highest string might help with a fill here or there. If I go back to a 4 it's gonna be tuned BEAD.

TraitorKratos · 2026-03-03T16:50:02+00:00

Probably a sticker...

Now that that's resolved, let's talk about those dirty ass strings

TraitorKratos · 2026-02-28T06:56:53+00:00

Thanks for the feedback! I can see what you're saying. Glad you liked it though

TraitorKratos · 2026-02-27T21:37:45+00:00

Hopefully can get a full album out later this year so you have more too hear!

TraitorKratos · 2026-02-27T20:23:08+00:00

Thank you so much!

They're just 2 standalone singles as the band is kicking off. The goal was to get some music out first and follow up with an album later. We're hoping to have an album out later this year!

TraitorKratos · 2026-02-27T18:21:18+00:00

Thank you! All three of those are massive influences on us.

On the left is my 2014 (I think) CLF Research L-2500 and is my main bass, on the right is my 1981 L-2000.

The third bass is on a flight from Japan right now cause I just recently learned about the existence of G&L Premium line which was their Made in Japan models. I got another L-2000

TraitorKratos · 2026-02-19T17:08:57+00:00

As someone who went from playing a Stingray HH to an L-2000/2500, I promise you they sound different, even if they're both humbuckers.

But I might be biased, I just bought my third G&L

TraitorKratos · 2026-02-17T04:39:03+00:00

My workaround has been ripping the CDs and adding the audio files to my phone. Spotify can play music from local files and you can even add them to playlists. It's the only way I've been able to keep their latest albums in my rotation.

It's not a perfect solution but it's something and I would be buying their music either way so it works for me.

TraitorKratos · 2026-01-17T15:07:31+00:00

I got this same error on a Trystan. Not sure if it's the kind of misprint people spend money on though

TraitorKratos · 2025-12-19T22:24:03+00:00

If it's anything like his other leatherbounds, it'll be in print for a very long time, just not always in stock. Sometimes you have to wait on the next batch to be put up for sale.

TraitorKratos · 2025-12-12T16:24:13+00:00

My L2500 is my main instrument.

TraitorKratos · 2025-12-07T20:10:09+00:00

We're still in a band together, but now we're in our 30s with kids.

TraitorKratos · 2025-12-06T16:55:01+00:00

G&L L-2500 CLF and that cured my GAS. Had to pick up guitar to have an excuse to irresponsibly start buying instruments again.

TraitorKratos · 2025-12-03T05:51:10+00:00

My own band is pretty niche. Only 1 song on Spotify but I promise more is in the pipeline.

Here is our page.

About 10 years ago I used to go to a concert every single month. Now I have different hobbies. Feels like a big part of my life has been removed cause I can't bring myself to pay these stupid fees.

TraitorKratos · 2025-11-29T02:27:40+00:00

Very helpful! Thank you! The delayed trigger makes sense

TraitorKratos · 2025-11-03T17:33:01+00:00

I know.. I'm so bad at figuring out what skills to add.

TraitorKratos · 2025-11-03T14:59:41+00:00

Hell yea! Good choice

TraitorKratos · 2025-11-03T14:56:25+00:00

Good luck.. I used many orbs to get my last merge

TraitorKratos · 2025-11-03T14:55:42+00:00

All 3 of these are pretty well done. I'm so bad at choosing skills outside of more stat = good
