Noteworthy bass lines that were played with a pick.
Signal chain:
Schecter P Custom (Nordstrand Power Blade) - Joyo Double Thruster drive - Sansamp VT Bass DI - Scarlett 2i4 - Reaper
I am practicing using a pick due to some pain in my index finger. I was going through some songs I know that use a pick and that's kind of the signature sound.

    Having owned a Sire V7 and own a USA Stingray 5HH, the Stingray is far easier to dial in different pickups with the 5 way switch including single coil sounds. Sire has 7 confusing knobs. On a live gig I could dial in different sounds instantly. With Sire I had to take time between songs and fiddle with knobs which rest of band hated.

      @klaymeister After some hesitation I actually bought a 40P5 to put in the neck position. I was quite reluctant that the upgrade was worth 100€ but after hearing how it sounds I think it was a wise choice, the split coil just sounds good in the neck position, even in the EMG flavor, also the combination with the DC that I kept in the bridge position is good, I think they sound complementary and I like it, I haven't tried it with the band yet but I'm very optimistic. The sound with the double 40DCs always seemed "boomy" and lost in the mix with the bands.

  • @cincinnatipedalsteel4347

    Yeah all black looks nice because of the fret markers. Gold wouldn’t have looked as nice. You made the right call. Flat wound strings is where it’s at imho. Great choice. Great minds and all. 😜

    I mean they sound great, they are said to play well and they look good. Also they are so inexpensive that if something happened and a drink at a gig poured beer on it or even kicked it over and broke it, you can get a new one for the same price (actually cheaper) than the harmonica I bought today. 😂

      The HZ pickups have different wiring on the back. 5 pins instead of 3. Also the volume knob may be 500k rather than the 25k they use with active. So short version is no. But if you buy the new pickups they usually come with all the wires and knobs you need.
