@oblivionnokk3531 8 лет назад

Eeeeey, I love this! got a SR505 myself, and it us just amazing sounding and perfect for most generes. But I feel you forgot to mention something and here it is. The pickups are passive but the Pre-amp are active, wich means you get the clean sound from passive but the power from active. And the battery can stay for ages!!

@peadookie 3 года назад

@@liamjenkins82 I've been playing an sr755 since 2010... Still a super bad ass bass. I changed out the pickups to Bart MK5's and the Bart NTMB pre and went to 18v with a coil tap switch. Also added Loxx strap locks. In that configuration, it's the bass I play 60% of the time. The other bass that I've got is a Modulus Q5. I also used to own a Modulus Q6, for reference. This bass is light, fast, ergonomic (for me), and has survived spit, beer, heat, cold... pretty much anything a hard-giggled bass can deal with. If in doubt, go for it. If you want to hot rod it, upgrade the pickups and/or pre. Edit: the neck is nice and low, BTW.

@DMarie-et3sw 3 года назад

Jatoba's Witness. lol. I picked this bass up at the Guitar Center... I fell in love with the wood, the weight and the way the strings sit so close to the fret board. Even without plugging it in, it sounded so lovely. I am reintroducing myself to the bass again after a long haitus. If I stay consistent (i.e., finish an online program I signed up for), I will treat myself to this bass! I'm in love.

@nathanash101 8 лет назад

I have an SR505, brilliant bass that can do so much with the amazing pickups and EQ. I know a guy who drummed in a band with a bass player that was sponsored by Lakland, but when he could only take one bass it would be SR505. could do so much and was such a studio tool.

@gunnarpeterson484 6 лет назад

Great company great store. Visited the UK and visited their Guildford location and was not let down. Played many of their guitars great selection my friend had bought one of their ghost fret pro series guitars loves it. Sadly did not get to meet Rob Chapman or the Captain. I'd recommend Andertons to anyone local to that area. Was not let down by the slightest.

Jason Rongione I would love to see that as well. Thinking of getting one for funky and rocky purposes :-)

@JohnBJr 7 лет назад

My SR505 is clothed in Zebra wood so there is at least three finishes. Thanks for demonstrating the EQ section. The mids are the voice so I don't usually scoop them more than a smidge below the indent. The switch has a nice effect with the mid-cut. I'm about to light up the rig and give that a go. Subscribed.

@rebeltuba9422 8 лет назад

I've used an SR506 for 7 years now. It's the easiest playing 6-string I've ever seen. I traded a Modulus Quantum 6 for it and never looked back. It's NOT a pretty instrument. It just sounds great and plays effortlessly. I've never needed a neck adjustment; it's incredibly stable, and I'm able to get the action ridiculously low. For the money, this bass is unbeatable. My one complaint is this: It's hard to keep the bridge saddles from moving around. I'm looking for a replacement bridge that locks. If I can't find one, I'll just replace it with a stock bridge. I'd like to see you guys do a comparison of inexpensive 6-string (or more) basses.

@TheEchelon 4 года назад

Not pretty? I guess that's subjective. I personally like the natural woody coffeetable look when it comes to basses :)

@Raezioo 8 лет назад

I saw you guys stocked ESP Stream basses in the store. Would it be possible to give a review of that? I'm interested in buying one of them, but it's kind of hard to find a good review on RU-vid. And seeing your reviews are top quality, I'm sure it would be a great video :) Thanks!

I will have to say that the $100 USD that I paid for my Ibanez SR300 was without a doubt the best dough ever spent on a bass guitar, Blows away my old Charvel 3B.. Only trouble we ever had was the bridge saddles would loosen from vibration & the saddles would fall, The fix was a micro drop of clear nail polish on each screw..

@carlwilson4375 5 лет назад

you guys should do a review on some warwick basses. That was my second bass, the corvette rock bass, and Its hard for me to find something that'll even begin to compete with it, then again I dont really go around looking for many basses cause I dont have many music stores around my area. That's why I rely on your guys opinion.

@sebradfield 7 лет назад

I had an SR505, then a 506, I loved the tone, but it didn't cut through the hard rock sound of the band I was with at the time. I'm fascinated to see the sunburst model, as I found the appearance of the Ibanez to be boring. I might be looking into getting one of these again.

@neilbarnett3046 7 лет назад

Is THAT what that switch does! I've had the SR505 for nearly a year and still can't hear any difference when I move the switch. And the "manual" is no use at all, it tells you what the switch does on EVERY model, but never makes it clear which model you've got. The trussrod still needs the (supplied) spanner to tighten, just not a screwdriver to get at the end. You guys are so good, you even make fret buzz sound good. I think you've been practising!

@IAmKillEveryone 7 лет назад

I've got a 506 as well. My only complaint is the thin body starts to cut off the circulation to your leg when you play sitting down for extended periods of time. Other than that, it's flawless. I play mine with the low B dropped to an A: AEADGC, but I've gone as low as GDGCFA# for the sake of djent and it had no problems with floppy strings.

@GuyNamedSean 8 лет назад

My dad has an older Ibanez and that's the only bass I ever played. Didn't get to learn much on it because it was pretty beat up and needed quite a bit of help to get it sounding good. I can't wait until I save up enough to get my own Ibanez.

@philmccracken6134 8 лет назад

Actually it's better to learn on an old beat up instrument, then you buy something nice and you realise you can do a lot of things and playing just becomes a lot more fun. I still remember when i bought my Strat after learning on a crappy entry level guitar, the first time i played it was just like a dream. Then it did it again when i tried the Ernie ball strings.

@GuyNamedSean 8 лет назад

+Eolas I'm going to learn on a starter set. That bass had, like, frets knocked out of whack and everything.

@evenseb7574 Год назад

There is nothing less inspiring than a difficult playing bass. I once tried to play on a jazz festival jamsession on a horrible Fender P bass with a really high action, with the result that I could not play good at all. A trauma it was. Luckily it was in another country. Now I always carry around a small allen key with me. It takes just seconds to lower the strings, and an old bowed neck suddenly becomes playable ✌️

@kelankellari6885 8 лет назад

The SR500 line has always felt really solid for the price it's sold. I have no idea why I don't own one though... :D P.S. The two first hits of the bass drum in the AATB intro jingle hurts my ears. It jumps out really loud even at low volume. Maybe cut the the db in the beginning a bit or something please.
