The latest acquisition

Topics about musical instruments other than guitar should go here. There's bound to be a Carter, LeRoi, or Yo-Yo Ma out there.

here is a sound sample.

in order:

you never know
slap shit i made up
birdland
dreaming tree
the chicken
everyday
41

so as you can see i can go from real trebly and honky to real soft in dreaming tree, and alot of those highs in birdland, which are all harmonics, come through quite well. i'm not a big fan of the slap tone on this though, it's a bit too mid-rangy for me. i'll relegate the slap to the flea. not to mention the string spacing is way narrower than the flea, which makes it a bitch to slap accurately, but it will get better with time

I love the growl on the low end. It hits the high's like a dream too. The harmonic comes out cleaner then bottle of soap. (:?)

2 things though:

1st is that the slap sucks on that thing

2nd is that im way jealous

i really like the slap tones from thumbs, dreaming tree sounded awsome, 41 sounded really good too.

the slap fest is good in the beginning. Classical Thump is a tad choppy though, but overall much better than i can do. I liked it
