Hey now 1bass, we are Bass Players and not those spoiled Guitar Player dudes. We make do with what we have and lay down the low end !! I actually know several guys who use well played “electric” bass strings on their acoustic basses and for a variety of reasons, really like it. 8)

Yes my friend, Mrs, Bass is just like Mrs. Boogieman. I have been in to the lowdown rockin’ Blues for nearly five decades. Married for 34 years, and Mrs. Boogieman still does not like Old,Fat, and Cripplingly Loud Blues during the middle of the night !! 8)

The neck says Schecter on it but it does not say Diamond Series like every other one I have seen.
If you like the Tele Bass look you would love my collection !!!! I have every year of that style that was made ( you do know that the very early Fender P Basses looked like Telecaster Basses ) though the new models sound much different, even with pickup upgrades, and the necks are much smaller than the original 50’s basses and the re-issues of the late 60’s and early 70’s.
I have been messing around with uploading songs and though the 3 songs are not mixed or mastered, go to http://www.indie911.com/users/boogieman Just hit View Page and you can hear a little of what I do. 8)
boogiemanParticipant8) I did research mine. It was not made in Korea. It has a Duncan Quarter Pounder in the P-Bass hole and a Fralin Custom Wind in the Jazz hole. Not cheap pickups my man. It does however, sound about A TON better than the “off the rack” Model T’s I have played. The neck is like a late 50’s P Bass on mine and not the narrow Jazz necks on every other one I have picked up or played. I was told it was indeed a early “proto” type. The guy I bought it from said he picked it up at the NAMM show.
It is a cool and great sounding bass. 8)

OUCH !! Anything but that !!! 8)

So, did you get your jack wired up ???? 8)
boogiemanParticipant8)
AMEN , AND THEN THE LORD SAETH : ” LET’S BOOGIE !!!!” 8)
boogiemanParticipant8) I thought you would be OK. The only way you may have had trouble is if you were using the smaller mini tuners. A regular size tuner will amaze you as to how big a string it will take. Good luck and hope you are enjoying “cool” tone !!!! 8)
boogiemanParticipant8) Just tell me what kind of bass it is and where the jack is located and I am certain I can help you out. Sounds to me like it is a TELE Bass type of jack. If so, it is a easy fix.. 8)
boogiemanParticipantIt will work and sound OK. I have that problem on a couple of my basses that I have put extra heavy strings on and they work fine.
Play that Bass !!!! 8) 8)
boogiemanParticipant8) You should be OK, although I am not certain what you mean. I have a 4 string bass set up with extra heavy ( .70 through 1.35 ) . It’s tuned to low B, so I have had string-tuner problems.
Send me a personal email if you want and we can talk about it. 8)
boogiemanParticipant8) My own ear was the judge my man, and it sounded very good. I have recorded on hundreds of recording sessions with all kinds of gear. This pedal was very good and when I found out I could get it for $25 I was shocked. I have spoken with other guys who told me it holds up well and is actually built well. Just thought I’d ask on here because it reaches a wide spectrum of players. You are the only one to answer so far. Thanks. 8)
boogiemanParticipantWell, I know a couple of guys who bought bodies from him and they both told me they were great. I doubt if they cared about small imperfections because they finished the bodies their selves.
The guy use to be easy to contact, plus he would build you any type of body you wanted. You might contact him and see what he says.

boogiemanParticipant8) There use to be a guy from Brazil that made very cool bodies, both right and left handed, and sold them on Ebay. Great product and great prices. He is still there every so often but his prices are now WAY TOO HIGH !! In fact he is so high he does nt sell many anymore, at least on Ebay.
Like I said I will keep looking for you. You never know what might pop up for sale. 8)
boogiemanParticipantThere are a lot of people who make bodies. I am certain there is someone near you who could help you out. I will keep my eyes open for you.
