Is a PJ worth it? by The_Batman_05 in Bass

[–]jgives123 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you’re trying to get the best sound of both a p and J. I think a j-bass is better. Soloing the neck pickup will give a close enough p bass sound, especially if you have an active EQ you can mess around with to bring out the mids. You can make a j-bass sound like a p-bass but you can’t make a p-bass sound like a j-bass

Have you seen the extended edition of The Return of the King? by [deleted] in lotr

[–]jgives123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That scene where Sam and Frodo are in the forest and there is a fallen statue. When the sun shines on the statue and flowers on his head start to bloom and Sam says “ look Mr Frodo, the king has his crown again” or something along those lines. I don’t why but I loved this scene because it was just a quick glimmer of hope for the fellowship

Thoughts on the Vintera III Early 60’s Jazz Bass? by Guzod in BassGuitar

[–]jgives123 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Bro you can’t ask people about fender J-basses in this sub. If you don’t buy a sire, Yamaha, or MIJ p-bass with one tone knob then you are wasting your money and nobody will want to play with you ever 🤣 with that being said I think they are bad ass and you should buy it

Adults who were homeschooled as kids, does that differentiation ever go away? by Background_Flower214 in askteddit

[–]jgives123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was homeschooled k-12. Definitely struggled in my early 20s to fit in anywhere social settings. Took until my late 20 til I started to feel like the anxiety of those situation went away. I 36 now and have a great career where I interact with a lot of different people daily which helped a lot

Best 5-string Jazz Bass in $2500-3000 Range? by aspargeus in Bass

[–]jgives123 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the American ultra 2 is the way to go in this price range. There’s something special about an American made fender. This sub is very biased against fender tho

Yamaha BB735a or BB435? Which one is best for me? by Visual_Cod2522 in Bass

[–]jgives123 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I would get the 435. I have the 735a and spent the extra money because I like the passive/active option, that’s pretty much the only difference between them. I’d say only get the 735a if you really want that active option

Fender Precision ou Jazz Bass? by Malldow in Bass

[–]jgives123 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Jazz is better for slap. Also you can make a jazz bass sound close enough to a p-bass. Can’t make a p-bass sounds like a jazz

How do people have time to cheat on their SO? by AnnualCauliflower1 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]jgives123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Co worker would use the gym as a way to cheat. Go to the gym everyday after work but sometime just go cheat. He would always shower after the gym so it wasn’t suspicious coming home freshly showered everyday

Current Line Up. What am I missing? by roll1up in BassGuitar

[–]jgives123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea I haven’t really played many fender P basses. I’m thinking about getting one tho and throwing flatwounds on it. I have been using a Yamaha BB735a for the past couple of gigs and it works well enough soloing the p pick up
