I got a schecter diamond deluxe 4.



That isnt mine, but it looks the same. The active EQ seems like the sort of thing that can give me the ability to get the sounds I want for recording. It sounds pretty good, better IMO than the p-basses than they (mearchant city) had in.

Heh, went in to try out Diezels, came out with a bass :lol:

Our drummer wanted a bass... he ended up with a G&L tribute Jazz type, all I can say is wow. G&L stuff rocks!

That's not a bad bass, i quite like it.

One thing i will say is... change the strings, a good set of bass strings cost 25-30quid, and have a much bigger factor in your sound than i find with guitars.

I had a Squire Vintage Modern Jazz and i put Marcus Miller's DR strings on them, and the sound was as good as a real Fender.

Cheers adam

I already put rotosound 60-125s on. (Well, 40 to 125 five string set).

I dont know which bass strings I like yet. I'm not a fan of rotosound guitar strings (sound honky, break quickly), but we'll see how I go. Thanks for the Marcus Miller recommendation!
