olp

[TheDirtyMoocher]

hey guys this is my second post and i'm trying not to re-ask any questions...but what does anybody think about the olp stingray basses? thats what i'm playing now (while i wait for my l.e. bongo hs 5 ) and i have no problem with it but it seems like its pretty much the same thing as a sub...except its made in korea or something and costs about $250 less

ahh the olp

maybe it has to do with the fact that it is made in korea and costs 250 dollars

i think you pay for what you get when it comes to music man and the olp is just a poor substitute

good thing your gettin a bongo
i have played the olp and the sub, once you play you will notice a difference. it also has to do with quality control

eash mm bass is hand crafted i cant say the same about the olp

sub

i actually did play a sub at guitar center after looking at it alot but i didnt like the squared off body...but you're absolutely right it does have a much more solid feel to it although i've had my olp for 2 years now and i only just started to have it fall apart on me so i feel like i really cant complain...i'm definetly gonna keep it as my backup bass

after you get bongo
your gonna want another
i call it bongo syndrom

or bongo fever

olp's are good $200 basses. and although - as most here know - i can't stand the look of the bongo, its a badass bass. it just feels and plays and sounds amazing. well worth the price tag

This is vonfogs OLP (now a 12 string). Great work heywhat:

OLP is definitely great bang for the buck, I just saw a great looking blue SR5 copy and it played ok, can't complain for the price they are.

 

[Bassplyr]

OLP's are excellent for a first or a back up guitar. They are not made or priced to be a professional piece, just like the Fender Squire line.

 

[Samingo]

I can agree with that however I would rank the OLP Very High Above the Squire line.

ive never played an olp. but i threw a seymour duncan quarter pounder pickup and some slinkies and set it up and its pretty good bass.
