Members Cliff Fiscal Posted March 15, 2010 Author Members Share Posted March 15, 2010 I also tried backing off the low end too, that really seemed to tighten everything up. I think I could be happy with the Stingray and the Millennium.....only two basses I really need live. For recording I think the P will work best.

Members Cliff Fiscal Posted March 15, 2010 Author Members Share Posted March 15, 2010 yes on all points. Stingray = really snappy and growly Millennium = smoother, darker with more tonal options. Both sound good recorded, but I figure keeping the P or the ProTone would be a good alternative, just in case. I recorded our entire demo with the ProTone. Maybe the P needs to go?

Members Cliff Fiscal Posted March 15, 2010 Author Members Share Posted March 15, 2010 USA Millennium 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Poltergeist Posted March 15, 2010 Members Share Posted March 15, 2010 looks awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cliff Fiscal Posted March 15, 2010 Author Members Share Posted March 15, 2010 Thanks, I really enjoy it. It's super well made. It can approximate the 'Ray tone with the bridge pickup solo'd and the on-board EQ tweaked just right. It can also do the P and J type tones too. All of the tones sound close, but all sound like the millennium. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cliff Fiscal Posted March 15, 2010 Author Members Share Posted March 15, 2010 I guess I like a tighter string spacing since the Ray, Millennium and L2500 all are that way. I'm also realizing that the fatter wider neck phase I was going through....was just that.....a phase. It's too bad since that Warmoth Jazz sounds really freaking good. Whatever Bart pickups and preamp is in there is really nice. I still like playing it, but the WIDE ass neck fatigues my hand quickly. I'd love to just sell all the junk off and just focus on a main bass, a backup, another just in case, and a recording bass. 4 is a good number.

Members Poltergeist Posted March 15, 2010 Members Share Posted March 15, 2010 the new squier P's are awesome, so there's no reason to spend alot of money on an "original" Fender, i think, these days. they're awesome recording basses. if i find a good price on a used one i'll flip my Affinity and buy one.

Members T. Alan Smith Posted March 16, 2010 Members Share Posted March 16, 2010 4 IS a good number. Keep the p for tracking. Best bass guitar for tha IMHO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cliff Fiscal Posted March 16, 2010 Author Members Share Posted March 16, 2010 4 is more then I really need too.....but I don't think I could sell my Bulldog. I'm thinking I'd prefer the ProTone over the P. The P is great, but so is the ProTone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members engage757 Posted March 16, 2010 Members Share Posted March 16, 2010 Keep the G&L and the ProTone. The G&L is irreplaceable. It can back up most any other bass and it can create such unique tones that I think you should keep it. and The precision because it is the best bass squier has ever made! and that particular one of yours rocks! you should snap a pic of her for old times sake.

Members Cliff Fiscal Posted March 16, 2010 Author Members Share Posted March 16, 2010 I agree with the ProTone......it's such a nice bass, I'd hate to lose it. The P is nice too......The G&L.... not so much.....it's a tribute, and they're a readily available. It's a great bass, but........well, nothing........ SON OF A......this is what always happens.....I think about them too much and I end up shutting down. Now I don't want to sell any of them.
