    Gregor, if i may make a suggestion for short, 5 minutes videos? It would be awesome to make short introduction videos or the crew. By crew i mean, you and all the bassists. I am asking myself questions such as "is René a profesionnal musician?", "Is Frank retired, was he a professional musician?", Is Gregor really a bass player or just a pretty face?" LOL. Short biopics of the guys maybe with short interviews, answering simple bass-related questions such as "when did you start palying bass?" or "what is your favorite music style when playing bass?". Just a thought, we want to know more about BassTheWorld! Cheers!

    Does anyone know the deal with why Spector and Warwicks body shapes are so similar? I know that there is a million variations on the J, but which one of the two starred the beer belly carve?

    • @Harrowfication
      @Harrowfication Рік тому +7

      Spector took over the design from Ned Steinberger. Later Warwick used the design, initially without consultation. Then there was a deal between the two and both companies produced the basses with curved bodies. However, there was no infringement of design rights because Warwick and Spector both soon modified the design. There was a similar story again and again with Fender, Gibson and others.

    The only Spectors worth owning that the pre-Korg ones. Quality always takes a hit when a large company takes over and processes change. Plus lower resale value.

    • @basstheworldofficial
      @basstheworldofficial  Рік тому +1

      I can’t agree in this case. All brands Korg has bought in the last years have done a great job since (same as before). Darkglass, Aguilar, Spector. The NS Pulse II basses last year were absolutely stunning and the best Spector has ever released in this price range

    Being a fan of Spector and Aguilar Soap bars, these sound quite boring to me. Also glad you mentioned the fret buzz. In the clip at 2:30 i already thought the B sound hard to control and off. Pitty, a light 5 is what I am missing.

    But how much do these basses weigh? Old men with bad backs want to know. And with pawlonia wings on a maple neck, it must be neck heavy. If the balance was good, I have to assume you’d mention it. By the way, I have a Sandberg Superlight that has plenty of low end. I love that bass. For anyone out there who needs a lightweight bass, don’t give up on pawlonia until you’ve tried it for yourself.

    I'm sure there is no reason to be concerned but the body being glued to the neck activates anxiety. I would be too paranoid of the bass falling apart to own one. Again i'm sure it never will but it would always be in the back of my mind.
