Guest GrandpaReefer Posted May 17, 2005 Report Share Posted May 17, 2005 You only like the hoppus bass because it is Marks.The hoppus bass sucks. It doesn't even have a tone knob!SHUT UP. You're a fucking moron. Who cares if there's no tone knob. Mark may be a crappy bassist' date=' but he's got amazing tone.[/quote']which has almost nothing to do with his bass at allit has to deal mostly with all his heads and cabinets and processors that he usesjackass Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bassfreak182 Posted May 26, 2005 Report Share Posted May 26, 2005 i have the daphne blue one.you CANNOT purchase the HOT pink bass. and the SHELL pink bass is discontinued meaning they dont sell that one anymore, but they did once upon a time. you can only get DAPHNE blue, SURF green, black (which ive never even seen him use), or his OLYMPIC white one he used alot on the previous tour.personally i love the bass. even if mark didnt use it or whatever. it has a great selection of colours, it has just one volume knob, and its just a great compression of two different styles of bass'and too the guy that said it sucks cause it doesnt have a tone knob. well i have news for you.... mark had the tone PRE-SET when the bass was made. when he was using precission bass', his tone knob was always on full, so they just pre-set the tone on his sig bass to full. PLUS, there are things called EQ's on amps if you dont completely like the sound your getting from the bass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blink--182 Posted June 12, 2005 Report Share Posted June 12, 2005 I have the Hoppus Bass in white-its ace. I had a Jazz Bass before and i ve never used the tone knob-so its ok that the hoppus bass doesnt have it. by the way-the tone is absolutely great-no need for a knob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(i assume to give someone 'props' is a good thing? i am a stupid australian, so i wouldnt be suprised if i got it wrong )I was pointing out that royalgfx was contradicting himself by saying 'you only like it because mark plays it' however, he said he was interested in a telecaster 'because bloc party use them', which is the same thing.

Guest core Posted June 22, 2005 Report Share Posted June 22, 2005 if you want the pink one,you have to have it custom made...but thats dumb anyway if your in a band no-one is want to see another mark hoppus,by having that guitar people will jsut make the assumption that you want to be him and associate you with him.

quiksilver199 Posted June 28, 2005 Report Share Posted June 28, 2005 Hey, I have some pics of my Mark bass that I got today... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest GrandpaReefer Posted June 28, 2005 Report Share Posted June 28, 2005 i dig the sound but not the price of iti could easily get the same sound outta the Fender MIM Pbass by throwing Quarter Pounds in it and save over 100 bucksbasically thats all it is, the only thing jazz on that bass is the body, the neck is Precision, such a fat neck. Id save 100 and just buy a Jazz Bass MIM or like i said with the P-Bassbut oh well, your money is your money Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
