  • G&L L2000 Sound Demo
    Quick little demo of a great USA G&L L-2000. This bass has an ash body, maple neck and rosewood fretboard.
    I used this setting:
    Switches-both pickups on, parallel mode, active mode.
    Knobs-volume 100%, treble 50%, bass 90%.
    I used my Form Factor Bi1000 amp and 1B12 cab and recorded the video with my Apogee MiC 96k.

  • USA G&L JB5 Audio Demo
    This was a very quick playing demo of me trying out the new G&L JB-5 5 string Jazz bass. This is G&L's first 5 string jazz style bass and it's great!! This bass has an alder body, maple neck and rosewood fingerboard. This bass also has passive Alnico V pickups which sound very warm and punchy.
    The playing examples were all recorded direct through a BBE BMAX bass preamp.

  • Ulyate MM Pickup
    The MM Ulyate Pickup is the newest offering from Ulyate Pickups. The Ulyate MM pickup is literally 2 pickups in one, one coil has 4 large magnets and the other coil mimics a Jazz pickup with 8 smaller magnets, which you can set up with separate volume controls for each, front and back, coil like on this demo. This pickup will drop right into a standard Music Man pickup cavity. Also available in 5 string versions.
    I used an Indonesian made Sterling by Music Man SUB 4 string bass, with no on-board preamp and completely passive, wired vol/vol/tone, recorded straight into my A-Designs Ventura's DI.

  • La Bella Olinto P Bass Demo Review
    Super excited to get my hands on this awesome instrument. The Olinto P Bass by La Bella is as close to a real 63' Fender P Bass as you can get. Master Luthier, Mas Hino, handbuilds these instruments to 63' P Bass specs, and he nails it.
    This bass features a relic Alder body (white over sunburst finish), Maple neck, Rosewood fingerboard, a Mas Hino Scatterwound P Bass Pickup, Hipshot reverse tuners, Fender aged bride, and La Bella flat wound strings.
    This is a great sounding and playing instrument.
    I recorded the playing examples through my A-Designs Ventura and REDDI, and went directly to Logic Audio through my Apogee Duet. The playing examples are clean bounces with no Plug Ins or effects.

  • LaBella White Nylon Strings
    Here's a sound demo review of the La Bella White Nylon Tapewound strings on my Wilkins Road Tested WRTPJ4 bass loaded with Ulyate Pickups.

  • Colibri Gedovius Bass Demo and Tapewound String Review
    Here's the complete audio portion of the review video featuring the Colibrí Guitars and Basses Mexico Gedovius Fretless Singlecut bass and two sets of Tapewound style strings. I record, play and compare the Rotosound Tru Bass Black Nylon strings and the La Bella White Nylon Tapewound strings. Like I mention in the video, the bass came stock with the heavier gauge Rotosounds, so when I change to the lighter La Bella's I had to raise the action a bit with a piece of Card Stock, it sounds great, but with a proper set up for the new strings or a heavier set of La Bella's, it wound sound even better.
    The playing demos were recorded direct though my A-Designs Ventura and Apogee Duet straight into Logic Audio with no Plug Ins, just a clean bounce.
