    I wouldnt know the difference myself but the guy is super into it like you guys, I can find out, Im sure he would know.

    If so, then I wish it was still in there instead of the di.

    That would have been a total score!

    I will fix it correctly when I wear out these strings.
    More of a project than I want to take on atm.
    Ears happy
    Guitar happy
    Amp happy
    Im lovin the tone of the dimarzio and the duncan.
    Only had emg 85s and 83s in the past. Never tried any others....

    Thank you for that!

    Dude says he doesnt remember and the only way to know for sure is to pull it and look at the back.
    Some were hand numbered.
    No pics.

    He does have one in his gibson tho...gibson velvet brick is what he called it.

    The real BL pups do have a sticker on the back plus they’re way different looking than the corporate commercial ones that often have a “Bill Lawrence USA” logo on the front of the lower coil. What year was that guitar made? Is it heavily modded or mostly stock besides the BL pickup?

    Not a guitar but I know you guys can appreciate the amount of work that goes into custom modding an instrument.
    Even if its an instrument of fresh meat antler collecting ;)

    Just finished this one.
    Gawd I hate quivers on a bow, throws the whole tune out of whack.
    Its their bow...I'll do watever they want, within reason, even if they wont listen to me.

    I have one. It's my #1. Feels and sounds amazing. Bareknuckle abraxas pickups in it are the icing on the cake.

    Fortunately I play one of those big 4 string guitars in this band. I can tune down and back up pretty quick!

    If he starts doing this with a lot of stuff, I'll have to start bringing another bass.

    Hopefully not though... I don't like hauling around more than I have too.

    Been looking for another base since I sold my beloved Peavey Foundation. Stuck with a Gio atm.
    Probably end up with a with another Peavey, Ibanez or cheaper Warwick or spectre.

    Is it easy to pick up a bass after learning 6 string?

    Very easy.

    Standard tunings same as guitar minus 2 strings.
    E,A,D,G on a 4 string. I'm assuming it would be E,A,D,G,B on a 5 string and so on for 6 string.
