I just got an SR5 a few weeks ago . I was getting a lesson yesturday and I noticed the teachers Bass was a lot warmer than my SR5.<br />
<br />
So the question is. How do I warm up the tone some?

Assuming you and your teacher are playing instruments of same material, with same onboard settings, and through the same top quality amp, with the same size top quality speakers, at the same time<br />
- first I would ask the teacher what strings (brand, material, guage) (s)he is playing<br />
- second I would ask the teacher if (s)he would show me the way to warm tones<br />
<br />
Incidently, I consider it another one of my personal challenges to extract the best and most musically compatible and interesting tones I can with my SR5 (maple/piezo) and stock Slinkys using minimal knobtwiddling and minimal amp settings<br />
- I'm coming closer to the day when the temptation will be too much and I will lace up some JazzFlats for that highly rated experience<br />
<br />
BTW, on the way home from the teacher's house, I would forget the cheescake and spend my money on another SR5<br />
- so I could have one with JazzFlats, and one with Slinkys<br />
<br />
Meanwhile, I'm still pondering an SR5 Rosewood-Piezo, and a Bongo HSP, and a Bongo Fretless HSP, and a Bongo HP <br />
