After watching an RKL video online, I went online and bought the cheapest bass I could find! As it turned out it's a pretty damn good little bass. I was used to playing a hammer than Ibanez I even had a rick at one time all were sold for family funds. UPDATE: The Bass I bought turned out to be a piece of junk. Even though the company (Glarry) is willing to work with me, you can't uncut wood! And the pickup collapsed into the plastic body! You get what you pay for!?!!

@haolekoa737 3 года назад

Get a Stingray. It took me 20+ years to realize this, that fat humbucker sounds like no other. They're expensive as hell, but even the cheaper Sterlings have the sound. Found mine ($800 5 string Sterling) on craigslist for $280. If you love that sound, it's worth looking for. PS I don't work for Music Man, I just share your love of that tone.

@CZECHMATE650 3 года назад

@@haolekoa737 I wish I could afford equipment like I squandered years ago. Plus I'm way out of playing shape (I remember being better than I am now). I don't do well with a 5 string. I want my Hamer back (20 years gone). Or my Ibanez ,that I sold after my accident so I could have a place to live. So I went on line and bought the cheapest bass I could find! (Pawn shop was a washout) The cut for the neck bridge mis-cut. Won't stay in tune. Play soft and Carry a thin pick,lol. No slapping on it either. Soooo I'm saving my money again. Sometimes sh*t happens for a reason. I'll get there, it's a hobby now no serious band or un serious either! Lol! But those HUMBUCKER P/U's make a Huge diff I bet!??

@@CZECHMATE650 Got mine second hand for under $300, they're out there if you look. It was only the second bass I bought in over 20 years of playing, and it was worth it. 4 strings or 5, it doesn't really matter. Play what feels right to you.

@@kckillakrack9714 You've hit the nail on the head here. If you're older than 12 or 13, who gives a shit if it's "punk", as long as you enjoy it that's all that matters.

I’ve got the exact same Ray34 in Stealth Black but struggle to get a decent punk tone, how have you set up your EQ? Love the sound that you are getting!
