MARLIN CUSTOMISED BASS c1994 People kept on telling me I ought to use a proper bass on recordings rather than a synth. So eventually Alvin Davies told me he had an old black Marlin precision copy which he'd set up for B-E-A-D tuning for the previous owner, before she bought a 5-string. Resprayed in tasteful two-tone metallic green it's quite attractive now, and despite its humble origins has a socking P-bass sound from the neck pick-up, as well as some more "Music Man" type sounds if you switch to the bridge humbucker. More recently, the old neck being beyond adjustment, I bought a handsome replacement maple neck, and have restored the bass to standard E-A-D-G stringing. |
