@@skulledcrossbone I would think so, I had a B7K ultra but didn’t use this bass with it. The BTB7 is brighter than the 747 so it should work great for metal.

@@ericrasmussen4691 I am asking you to play metal with this bass and darkglass gain channel distorted 3 finger shreddy lick.

@@skulledcrossbone Ah okay - sorry for missing your point. I sold this bass and my pedal so I cannot do that.

Sì, avevo la tanica di scarico originale all'inizio del video. Tuttavia, la mia moto era dotata di un tubo ad H invece del collettore di scarico originale. Spero che Google Translate abbia senso!

@@ericrasmussen4691Grazie per la risposta, con Decat e scarichi hai dovuto rimappare la centralina?

@@domenicocarofiglio7243 All'inizio non ho rimesso a punto la moto. Funzionava bene, ma la partenza da fermo o le curve a bassa velocità in prima marcia non erano fluide. L'ho risintonizzato con la mappa "05" e ho fatto anche una cosa chiamata "modifica FPR" che puoi trovare sul forum Aprilia: www.apriliaforum.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?14-RST1000-Futura-(all-years) La mia bici ora funziona alla grande: molto fluida in basso ma si strappa ancora quando acceleri. Ci sono altri file di mappa che puoi scaricare e provare, ma ho trovato il "05" il migliore.

@@RichardKraneis Scrumban! I’ve been a scrum master, agile coach, and now I’m a lead scrum master at my company.

@@Catlover777ful Low F# to high Ab, and I do have a video of how it sounds in my channel. I’m about to re-string it and then I should do another. My first video of me playing it isn’t that great. It takes a while getting used to such a wide fretboard!

@@ericrasmussen4691 The point is to let people hear how it sounds. I can assure you that no matter how good or bad a player you are, there's always someone much worse. Nobody's perfect anyway. You can just noodle up and down the fretboard as many players do. Be sure to play all the strings, too. A lot of them don't even touch the bottom two strings. I, for one, want to hear the entire range of notes, especially on an extended range beast. So string 'er up and let 'er rip.

@@Catlover777ful See link I just posted - I've tried to follow the same format & settings to compare the sound of basses I play over time. The 9 string has so many sounds in it that it would take me a day to go through them - it's a great bass!

@@ericrasmussen4691 You'll get there. Your tuning is exactly what I thought it would be. I have a Dickens GTBD-7 tuned C#-F#-B-E-A-D G with a dark cherry red top. I also converted a regular GT-7 into a GT-12 by putting six pairs of strings tuned F#-B-E-A-D-G. It sounds awesome. I also converted a GT-4 into a GT-8 (4x2) and a GT-5 into a GT-10 (5x2). Sometimes if you want something doe but can't afford it, then do it yourself but ONLY if you have the skill for it. I'm currently converting a no-name Chinese 8-string - all single strings - ro a 15-stringer (5x3) - going quite slowly.

It weighed 10.2 lbs, and was one of my lighter basses lol.

Not for sale as of right now...

@@WorbyBass Thank you! I owned both parallel fret Ibanez basses and both are excellent - and lighter lol! I’d love to own a Dingwall again but they only go up to six strings. 😂

@@robertdavidson9449 I can’t find the pics - it’s my friend’s bass so I could take another look at it, but Allparts has great, inexpensive bridges. I’ve used them on other basses.

The backrest? It is held in with a set-screw, so it can be removed pretty easily.

Sold already, sorry!

13.5 mm

@@ericrasmussen4691 thanks!

Possibly… If the neck is built well then it shouldn’t. Also, I use Kalium balanced tension strings on most of my basses so that should also help. The Ibanez’s felt very solid to me and the BTB7, being 11 years old now, was still arrow-straight and flat. I don’t think it would have any issues. However, I do agree that 6 and up should probably have two, just in case.

10.8 lbs converts to 4.898 kg.

That's a full Corbin seat with a Corbin backrest. Came with the bike - I also have the stock seat.

The overview and clip of me playing it (badly I might add) is on my channel - also, I need to replace a string on the Galveston. Surprisingly, I’ve not been able to source a .030” high C string for it. But - my plan is to mod it so I can run a .200” low F# like my Conklins. The string-through-body thing is preventing me from doing that. Lemme know if you can’t find the 9 - I want to replace its strings also; once I play it again for a while I can do another video of it. It takes some getting used to!

​@@ericrasmussen4691Thanks dude! Found it, and we're ERB brothers! I have a custom Conklin 11 string!

@@daven3291 Sweet!! ...and where is YOUR video of that?? I've seen rare pics of them. Are you on Talkbass? Look me up: Razman

@@daven3291 So I need to find a deal on one of those some day to keep messing with my peeps at church - they've watched me move up from 4 to 5 many years ago, then to 6, finally to 7... They shake their heads every time I bring in a new bass with more strings!! Lol...

Yes, sorry!

I considered that exact model when I was looking for my first 5-string back in 2001. I ended up getting a Cort Curbow 5, and it has been a blessing. But sometimes I think about the Steinie. I understand there was a graphite neck version of your bass, wasn't it?

@@curbowman The original Steinberger was all composite; the XQ and XP models had wood bodies with carbon necks. They are rare now but still can be found if you are patient and are willing to invest the $$. I want to find an XQ5W some day, which is the wider necked five string (vs. the narrow one, which they squeezed five strings onto a four string neck.)

The rig in my church's theater is far more silly I assure you.

Huh? They are single-coil sized humbuckers and they sound fantastic. Well, to me they do. See the other video I did about their tone. I believe I have a link to that in my ad on Talkbass.com and FB. If they don’t sound good to you I respect your taste preferences - that’s okay. 👍🏻

The single truss rod is the biggest deal breaker on these things.

​@SrChalice yeah... If it adds strings on Bass, it should add a extra truss to Balance the necc. That thing gonna warp like Hell over Time. It also deserves better inlays. Is like... someone started a masterpiece then gave up before they finished.

The 747 weighs 10.6 lbs, and the 7 weighs 10.8 lbs - virtually no difference between them. I haven't played either of them for a long period of time as I normally play my Conklins but, that said, they are lightweights compared to the Conklins and are pretty easy to wear. Credit that long upper horn, which helps a lot. Between the two I can't tell much difference. I may strap them on later when I have the time and report back if I feel any difference or not. They are essentially the same body shape/style so I wouldn't think so.

@@ericrasmussen4691 Cool- thanks for the details! I have a new BTB7MS ordered on the way, I haven't seen any reviews on it yet so I'm looking forward to getting it. For the unique features there's a lot going for the money. Is Conklin still producing 7 string basses anymore or do you have to watch out for them?

@@ironDsteele Bill Conklin passed in 2021 (RIP) but I heard that his surviving wife may be trying to revive it. Occasionally I'll see updates on their FB page but I really don't know. Have to be on the lookout for them now; they are hard to find. One day I hope to find another Bill Dickens sig model but in red - that bass is pretty awesome and rivals most custom basses for tone. The preamp is unique.

4.8 Kg

@@ericrasmussen4691 definitely heavy! I use a double shoulder strap on mine

@@iceberg220I think it's still lighter than a Les Paul, just sayin'... 😀

I think Wolf's parent company - is it Raven West?? - is making a new seven string that has fanned frets. Not sure so don't quote me on that. I did just pick up a Galveston 8 string unpaired (meaning wide neck) bass off Reverb, and I hope to get some video of that out here soon. Coincidentally, Guitar Center also has one for sale right now, and they are somewhat rare. I've been waiting for mine for over a decade. I mention it because if you like lots of strings, it's a great option - it's a solidly built bass like the Wolf, better in some regards. The body is bigger so neck dive is much less, if any at all. However, I plan on devising a solution for the string-through-body configuration, as that prevents me from stringing it with a thicker, low F# string. Otherwise they are solid and well built.

@@ericrasmussen4691 I would have assumed that these wolf basses are considered rare. Especially since I haven’t found one on reverb today. Still they make some nice looking basses. And speaking of 7-string basses,I have owned a dean edge 6-string bass at one point. Especially since I’ve wanted to experiment with a 6-string bass. And It was fun to experiment with one. Even though I’m primarily a 5-string player. If I were able to back then, I would have purchased a wolf 7-string bass. It would of been fun experimenting with one 😎🎸

Sorry to hear that my friend. It is worth fixing - or even selling as-is, someone would appreciate it if you no longer want it!

Phil Jones Bass SIX-PAK and two 9b cabs.

Sorry my friend, already sold, might be more out there though.

Later this year - I’m planning on placing a big string order. We’ll both have to wait for now!

Long gone, sorry mate!

What do you think of it compared to an ibanez btb7

I have both a BTB7 and a BTB747 - see videos of them in my channel - and the Ibby’s are to be preferred. The construction of the Wolf is solid but it suffers from significant neck dive. I had to replace the preamp in mine (I did get it used and it died) and overall it didn’t sound bad, so if you run into one for a good price then grab it - otherwise the Ibanez is the way to go.

@@ericrasmussen4691 Is the btb7 better than the btb747?

Yes, I've used it as such. I can't remember if I was powering the combo or just running it through the Bassman amp in this video - I'd have to re-watch it.

Yes - but you can occasionally find them on the used market.

What I think happened is my mechanic installed the battery incorrectly. On my car, the red battery cable was actually the negative wire, and the black one was the positive wire. Doing so must have ruined some of the electronics. It never improved, and I never fixed it. I eventually sold the car.

I’ve got one for sale in the US. 5000$, 7500 miles. Never been dropped.
